Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome
Thanks guys!
However my camber is already maxed out (stock arm) and the tire does hit... not by much tho. The car can def go lower, but that won't change the way it cambers in right ?
Would my only options be to push the camber a little bit more or run a 265 instead of 275 ?
nope they are the equip I posted a page or 2 earlier.. they're going on my Z but I used these to see if this offset and size would fit.
I think battlecat (rx7club) is the guy you are referring to

my fronts are still a little off but maybe its cause im running 18x11's in the front maybe?? i didnt even pay attention to the caster. im going to bring it back sometime next week to get my toe bolt installed and adjust the alignment a little more.

Hey everyone, my name is Kyle and I own Pro-Tuning Performance. I was actually the one who aligned Andy's 350Z today. I saw that he was a member of this forum and (after years of lurking) I finally decided to register. I don't own a Z/G, but try not to hold that against me...
Let me start by saying that Andy's 350Z is probably the lowest car we have had on our rack. I never thought we would be able to get the car on the rack and actually told him that we would most likely have to align the car by hand (not fun). Surprisingly enough, we were able to get the car on the rack without any issue.
As for the alignment, let me explain a few things. Andy's car is lowered on a set of Stance coilovers along with a set of SPC rear camber arms, which he installed a few days ago. Unfortunately, he did not install the SPC rear toe bolt so toe adjustments were limited to the factory eccentric bolt. Therefore, in the rear, we were forced leave the camber at -3.8 degrees in order to maintain a reasonable rear toe setting. Once we install the rear toe bolt, we should be able to set the camber and toe closer to where we would like.
On the front, as many of you probably know, there are no factory camber or caster adjustments. Without adjustable front arms, there is nothing that can be done about those settings (besides raise it, but thats not what this car is about). So, we set toe to zero in order to minimize tire wear.
All in all, Andy's car is pretty cool. I have no idea how you drive that thing on the street, especially with Texas roads, but it looks great. As I said today, the alignment isn't exactly what we would like, but its much better than it was. Just let me know if you'd like us to install the rear toe bolt or adjustable front arms. Until then, I think you should be much happier with the car now.
Pro-Tuning was the only shop that took the time out to get my car on the lift. I appreciate everything you did. unlike shops like NTB and other franchise shops, you actually got the job done. if you're local in the DFW area, I recommend this shop to anybody that needs an alignment for lowered cars. especially the ones that are in the hellaflush scene. more business to come in the future from me!!

as for genx350z....we might as well be bros cuz were both in texas, both have the same color z and both have equips but mine are 18x11 +10 and 18x12 -20
i'm getting my fenders pulled by edafe tomorrow morning and reinstalling my wheels so pics will be up hopefully tomorrow in the afternoon....i've been driving dumped on stockies for too long
cell phone pics for now, photoshoot this week
this is exactly what the tech told me when i took mine to get aligned, but fortunately this place had a drive thru rack with no ramps. i have my rears cambered at -1 1/2 and fronts i'll need the front camber arms for adjusting.
