In alot of concept car drawings the small tire is larger then the front.

Someone please explain why this is a bad setup?
I am no tire and wheel expert.
17" by widest recommended in the front (thinking 245 or 255)
19 or 20" by widest recommended in the rear (thinking 305 or 315)

I'm willing to buy an aftermarket suspension kit and some camber hardware & fender rolling, to get this to work.

Thanks in advance.
A better tire size would be 275 front, and 295 rear. A 305 you woill have to nail the offset exactly andI don;t know what offsetthat is or if anyone knows. I have a 295 and it rubs very slightly.

DSPIEL the fact that you know where to get animated dancing deodorant let's us all know how much time you must have on your hands.

Next time I need some animated cursors I'll look you up bit^h.

Guys who talk sh*t on boards are the same guys who sit in the corner very quiet in person. It's safe behind that keyboard huh?

If you get that upset over an emoticon, I don't know if you're going to be able to handle this board. Why did you post your mod-list? Is that supposed to give you credibility?

i don't really think that's an excuse to be a dick to people though...not talking about you, just the fact that some people get pretty out of hand in the way they deal with new people

Ok, so after learning my lesson about what flaming is I stand corrected.
Sorry for the harsh comeback, I read into your post and thought you were just being a di$k.

Here is a link to one of the concept drawings before the Z was manufactured.
This drawing and many others like it show the 350 with a much smaller front rim then the back and I like the look of it.
Many concept specs of the 350z had 17 on the front and 20 in the rear.
