Not even.....Here is the GT wheels, save size as the NISMO ones, and with 285x35x19s on the rear and 255 up front, Toyo tires.

Man those wheels, drop all look awesome on the car...making me really want wheels, and a drop now. Gotta wait for a while longer on wheels, so I got tires for now.

 

Really brings out the red with those wheels.

A stock height Nismo Z looks kinda goofy imho, but that just brings it all together.

 

Yeah, okay, that looks really good. If those are 295/35 then I was definitely way off. I was thinking it would give the car a sort of "jacked up" look...but obviously not.

 

Stock isn't too bad, but it's sort of one of those things that if you're gonna throw rims on it you need to close the wheel gap.

 

+1. Gotta agree w/ you on this.. Sorry John!

DArren(actually took a minute for the Nismo Z to grow on, but now I'm one of the converted!)

 

LOL...the world is against me...that's okay though.

 

I still buy your political conspiracy though!

D

 

it doesn't look like you dropped it that much, how many in. did you drop it

 

I knew I should've kept my mouth shut...man you play rough brother! What are you defending P now?? You Intense guys stick together...should've known

 

Thank you!! I thought the same thing but a lot of my other friends believe I "slammed" it. I know better.

I think I went down about 1.5 (just sitting above the tires). This is my daily driver, so I needed to retain practicality. Anyway, I didn’t bother measuring before hand, but I think that’s about right.

When you look at the wheel well, there’s a significant difference.

 

damn it looks aggressive from behind...beautiful

 

Thanks...always feel like I'm driving a new car.

 

So what are you doing about those intakes?

 

You know I've got the Stillens on there right? I'm actually thinking about going back to my stock intakes in order to do technosquare...but that's only if I don't drop the hammer on that new turbo kit that just came out!!

Otherwise right now, I'm not do'n nada...

You're pushy man!! Try'n to convert my car into a monster.

What up bro? Know anyone off the top of your head who has 5mm spacers?

 

VERY HAWT car man (just like our AZ heat). I plan to visit Intense a lot again once that new Z drops and they get some parts, so maybe I will see you one day.

Did I tell you your Z is HAWT!!!

 

Intense should have the Ichiba 5mm Wheel spacers, but you would have to ask Darren.

Dang... You went from Changing intakes to possibly going twins... Uh oh.... You got the mod bugs!!!

 

Gorgeous.

 

Yeah, so I was going to do the spacers but even a 3mm spacer pushes the wheel out beyond the fender well (not cool)...so I'm getting the back of the wheel shaved about 2mm to create the clearance. Crazy enough, the back of the wheel grinded a thin line into my control arms. Should be good after this though.

Hey man, you should've never mentioned the new tubo kit...now I wanna add a little boost. I would love to strap on 700 bhp. This would be more than enough, but I figure I could tune it down a little and then if I really want more for off-road applications then I have it. This will be a "next year" project.

 

Gracias...I hope to see a lot more Nismos moded and tracked so we can see the max capabilities of this car.
