Default EXE Konvex

Finally got my wheels installed..I'm contemplating if I should install the Tein S-Techs that I already purchased or not. It's already sitting pretty low..

it's going to look great once you get those S-Techs on. Not a bad looking wheel.

It's already sitting low? Looks high as heck to me...4x4 style ftl. Throw those springs on at the very least. Wheels remind me of the factory g35 wheels.

Not bad, however there is nothing low about your car. Even with those drop springs you will still be considerably high, unless your roads are really that bad out there.

Not a bad looking wheel if it was on a sedan or something. I don't like them on a Z.

Cool thanks...are you running with front rear camber kits? I opted to only run with rears since the drop is less than an inch.

Even with the springs your car will still be high. Just put them on so it'll look a little better. Also, you cant run rear camber arms with springs....
