Yeah.. . The front fender got pulled a little from turning so it is more tucked than it should. Even tried to put some 8mm and 5mm spacers on them but I couldn't turn for crap. Fronts are 235/35/19 with +12mm. Should I get some 30 series tires or something???

I think 30 series might help you then. Im running +12 and a 3mm spacer up front with 265/30/19s and have no turning issues, but I am not quite as low as you are in the front either. Have you tried taking out the inner fender liners?

edit: and I still stand by my opinion that you need to lose the splash guards - otherwise sick car

definitely will try to take the liner out or modify it. Then maybe some 10mm or 15mm spacers(with 30 series) .. .

I have no idea how much camber it has. Just stock arms but I bottom out everytime pulling in my driveway and in the garage(even at extreme angles). Rear 1/4 panel was rolled and very slightly pulled. May need to go back and roll the pass side some more.

whatever you do, dont remove the fender liner!

on hard turns i could hear rubbing sometimes, but it wasn't on the fender like i thought it was. turns out my tires were getting pushed into frame of the car, even making a hole in the fender liner. and you'll see how low my car is soon

cheanyoung......don't remove the fender liner. On a side note, I think your only problem with the rubbing is that you are just a tad too low. Raise it a little and you shouldn't have any problems.

These are definitely not my style now, but props to you guys for customizing your ride the way YOU want it. Takes me waaaay back. We were doing the same thing with wheel and tire fitments when we were building slammed minitrucks when I wasi in high school in the 80's. Mitsus, Nissan Hardbodys, Toys... slammed with wide, way offset rims and stretched tires. Damn I thought it was HOT then.

I have 2 stickypods and I haven't tried using them yet to take rolling shots. But I REALLY wana figure out how people take pix like that!

Let me know! ASAP!

Thanks dude! haha

edit: ok I can't get the picture to post with this post. But its the black 350z on page 8 I think it was. It's done by 'Le' Photography...

^ Looks like a rig shot. When I've seen it done, the camera was attached to the end of a pole that was suction cupped to the hood. The car is not actually moving that fast.
