Wow, thats great news! Congrats. It just don't make any sense though since your offset is more aggresive with a lower drop than I...How is my Z rubbing on dips and bumps and your not? What is your front camber set at? Do you live in an area with perfectly paved roads?

Yes, and yes.

The roads aren't too bad where I'm from *old sig*



Opinions please? Camber is definitely why, in fact, look at the driver side rear tire. I'm not sure why, but I've been defying odds ever since I got my car as far as suspension geometry goes. Maybe I just got lucky haha?

Thanks sir

I'm gonna go buy some more clothes to celebrate LOL so hit me up with any questions! BTW the pirellis ABSOLUTELY roast my crappy Toyos (IMHO) SUPER STICKY. They are a soft tire, buyer beware, and far from cheap.

Ravi, no problem HaHa, now I understand why...here in NYC, even our highways are crap. When you get a chance, post more pics of the new setup. Lovin' those huge tires in the rear. I'll be joining the 295 club as soon as my 285's needs replacement.

BTW, I think it's a good idea for one to factor in the roads they travel around when asking whether or not a tire will rub. It's obvious that my setup rubs because I get the occasional 3" dip on my streets and you don't cause your streets are heaven for a modified car to be driven on. LOL... I felt like such an a$$ saying that you would rub.

For sure dude, the roads make a world of a difference. The few bumps I do go over rub for sure, which is why I'm going to do a full roll now. Not sure what I'm gonna do on the front, but really dont worry, I'm running IMHO very agressive (kinda too much) offset.

Be sure to post pics of your setup also =)

Holla, keep in touch and thanks,
ravi

wow 295 is awesome. I guess my 285's will fit, but from the looks of it I think I have less negative camber than you though.

Do you think there is enough room for 265's up front or will it definitely rub?
