sorry if this has been discussed before, but I am not sure if I am supposed to inflate my tires to oem specs or if stretched tires need to be inflated to a different psi?? My wheels specs are: 19x9.5/10.5 +12 with falken 225/40/19 and 245/40/19. I know this setup is kinda wack, but I bought it like that, thanks.
Also, I was thinking of buying spacers to make the wheel fitment a bit better, or should I just get bigger tires to fill in that gap?? The tires seem a bit too small with too much fenderwall.

Nice man. How much camber are you running? Rolled the rear fenders? You think 285 would fit in the rear? Thx

Not exactly sure about the camber i just set it to fit the fenders maybe -3? I gotta go in for an allignment later in the week to get the camber evened out. Rear fenders are cut and pulled alittle, and I took a video with my gopro and 285 probably wouldnt fit. With more camber 285 would definatly fit tho

So what do you guys do when you tear holes in your exhaust? I tore the flex pipe in my Y and I don't know whether I should just replace it with another flex or just replace it with a solid pipe. It's only the right one for some reason. On all Z's only the right side of the Y pipe scrapes the ground that I've seen lol. And my cats have little hairline cracks in them. I'm gonna see if I can smear some copper rtv on them to seal it up. If not I'll go with test pipes I guess.
