Default Volk GT-N's, Tanabe NF210's, and Kic's spacers intalled

Just got done instaling my new toys for the Z. The drop with these springs is perfect IMO. The ride is about the same as stock but there seems to be less body roll.

As for the wheels the are gunmetal Volk GT-N's sizes 18x8 & 18x10, offsetts are 13mm and 18mm respectively. Tires are Kumho Asx 245/40 and 275/35. I am not sure if rubbing will be a issue yet as i haven't driven it much yet but i guess we will see. Pics will be posted in the morining so don't crucify me

I really want to thank Rishie and the guys at RND for getting me the KICS project spacers. They were nice enough to hold the spacers for me and hold up their shipment to help save on shipping cost for me. I HIGHLY reccomend them.

Here are some pics. Sorry for the quality but it was late when i got done and the lighting was bad. I am going to shoot some new ones tommorow.

+1 on the crappy pics. Not sure why people try to take pics at night. We need better daytime pics.

Yup, he should run a 275/40. Hope he doesnt have VDC cause its definitely going to go off because of the unbalanced tire sizes.

the rears don't look that small to me in person. I am going to get 275/40's as soon as these wear down. No i don't have vdc so it isn't a issue . I had these wheels and tires left over from another car. They were bought brand new and i only ran them for a couple of weeks before selling the car. So i decided to keep them and see how they fit on the Z. I know they aren't the optimal size but they don't look to shabby.

NF's apparently were changed to orange/red also. I confirmed it with someone else that just purchased a set.
