Default sportlines, springmount, GT wheels, spacers, michelins

here are some pics of my 07 with some eibach sportlines, eibach 20mm spacers front & rear, the rear "springmount mod", rays GT wheels and michelin ps2"s 255/40/18 - 285/35/19

I wanted to post so people would know that it IS possible to install 20mm spacers if your lowered and have these wheels (or the nismo wheels comparable to these) but I did have to cut/sand/seal my rear fenders.

I have the same set-up with 30mm spacers, and I love it! Super low-offsets FTW!

OH, and fender rolling with a slight pull and negative camber worked out fine for me, no cutting required.

On the rear springs, there's like a black rubber mount and the mod is where u hack off like an inch or however much you want, which essentially lowers your car. Search for more details.


To the OP, car has a very nice stance and wheels are sitting flush as can be.

yeah, I had the reciprocating saw laying around... so I opted to cut and seal versus rolling the fenders

looks great, but my sportlines tuck evenly front and rear, but I am running 19's front and back. is the spring mount mod needed with this 18/19 setup from the GT wheels?

First off props I love the stance of your car. I have the same wheels on my red one and want the same spacing/tires..

Did you have to get different studs to install with the stock wheel?

Do you have a picture of the car straight on from the side?

Can you tell me how high the side of the car is of the ground?

Thanks!!
