im currently on the stock suspension. I bought tein flexes.. but i got scammed the $1000+ i paid and they still havent showed up.. in 10 months. So ANYWAY, there isnt much room for a drop in the rear with mine (GTC 10.5 w/ a 275/30/20) and very little drop in the front.

And yes, my tires are stretched to all hell, im looking to get wider ones

Daytona350z just making sure you dont have a drop in those pics....I should be getting my 20" this week and was pondering the Eibach Prokit at the same time but if it gonna look like yours with the stock suspension I wont bother dropping my DBZ.....Save me money on buying camber and toe arms....The wheel gap doesnt look bad at all on your Z if thats stock suspension....

stock suspension. but then again, i went with a 245/35 and 275/35 combo for the tires. if i had to do it again, i would do 245/35 and 285/30, but i think i would need to drop the rear a lil bit. i think with the setup i had i woulda doen a .5-.75in drop.

Thanks! I like the Tanabes so far. I didnt have to roll the fenders but I didn't cut the bump stops in the rear like the instruction asked.

No. Just the stock shocks. I like the ride it's much better than stock but I heard that from all the guys with aftermarket springs. The ride and handleing is just better. No feathering that I have noticed.
