Its because ur rear tires are 6% smaller then the stock sizes which should be making the slip indicator go off. i believe the more u can go is 3%. i use willtheyfit.com to get my tire sizes. im just hella pissed cuz the shop i went to told me to get tire sizes that are a little bigger then stock....so now i cant go as low as i wanna go unless i do hella camber. since i daily drive this i dont want hella amount of camber but since i wanna go lower i guess ima just have to.

Im sorry but that word itself is retarded. And the fact you used it 3 times is just horrendous. Please refrain.

I took some hella awesome new photos for everyone

I'm still working on fitment, I've got 25mm spacers I can chuck on the rear, maybe a 10mm up front? If so anyone wanna swap for my 30mm spacers?

It looks like it needs to go lower but its already pretty darn low and this is my daily/grocery getter lol, plus the shop I had do the work weren't keen to go any lower.

I think what you should really do is not post any pics until its done.

If youre unable to go low enough to comply with the standards then Im sure there are other threads for you..

Trav, some people get excited and want to share their setup. No point in bashing him.

I didnt say his car was crap, just saying that for the thread its just not up to par. Yes it is low, relatively speaking. Is it flush though? Ill post mine with stock +30s and tell you Im buying -12s next month, would that be ok?

No hard feelings 350ZAustin. The bar is high and has been up there for quite some time. At least you acknowledged the fact you need spacers, now go get em asap!

Standards

But I noticed you lived in Texas you should be able to reach out to someone from swag n bang. Fitment is on another level out there;

How would you guys feel about stretching a 245 on a 12 width? I'm in a pickle and only have a set of 245/35/19

Ive seen 255/35s work on a 12 but Ive also seen them fail...maybe if its a Federal or other wide brand, but its still risky at best.

Hating much? i sound like my english teacher... theres more to this thread then pointing out how many times i say a word. grow up. just sayin. it would probably be more helpful to maybe back up wut i was saying or correct it if im wrong. and to all u guys supporting him, get a life and find something better to do.

Im here to try to learn and people like u guys make me not want to stay on these forums....even though i have already heard that the my350z forums can have their share of dicks. just my 2 cents

Yea it might be a bit risky trav but I think it'll work I've also see 12s with a 255 and a little more stretch wouldn't be that intense, I found these 11.5 running 235 , so I'm guessing a 245 on a 12 would look similar to this

even a hard pull wont fit those... youll have to do some custom body work.
