your installer is on crack. i ran these on my car, same springs, rear fenders rolled.. no issues.

you may have issues if you put a fat chick in your car though..
There's proof that a PPW can look awesome. Really like those wheels, what are they?

I took a peak at it this morning and yes it does fit... when it's park. however I only have about 1/2 inch between top of wheel to fender. As the tire goes in and out of the fender and I see what my installer is saying, I can see how the tire may rub. However most of you are claiming that it will camber in instead of up when this happens. yes????

it will camber in and up, but with a severly dropped car, I am sure the suspension travel has been greatly reduced

Ask your install what he's smoking.

The GT-S is aggressive but I am running an even more aggressive setup with a similar drop (-1.25") and I have 19x11+17 with 285s and I rolled my fenders and it's still clears. If you compare that with the GT-S' 19x10.5+18 and the same tires you will see obviously that my setup is more aggressive but I still don't have rubbing issues. My car also clears with OE camber spec.

10.5 +17 with a 285/35-19 will fit just fine. You will need to roll the fenders. Without rolling the tires will rub the inner lip of the fender and start cutting your tire. here are more pics of the ppw. https://my350z.com/forum/south-central/278168-pics-of-my-ppw-tell-what-u-think.html
