careful, remember PHAT=Heavy=decrease in HP to ground.

I run 275, they are plenty PHAT

Default "Got camber?"

"Holy Smoke", check out that negative camber on the black Z
Yup, my Nitto 275's are plenty PHAT too. Regards, Jim

jeefus thats overkill! its not like a stock vq with intake and exhaust is going to break those things loose any time soon. but who knows he might have a lil' something something under the hood.
will the 350z accept such wideness without cutting anything??

Yeah, like many men, I looked at the butt and fell in love.

I think they're not as wide as they look, due to the massive camber, and the fact that the tire looks 'stretched' over the rim (look at the curved sidewall). I could see it being a 275 stretched over a 19x10.5 or something.

I have 285s on 10.5 rims on a black Z and mine are as wide or wider. You can see the rim lip so my guess is 275s streched on a 10.5 or 285s streched onto a 11.0. I was told a rim wider than 11 won't clear.
