Yeah. sorry. lol. Other option Max, get wheels that fit the way you want them to. Either way will get you instagram trendy points.

Hi guys, I have a noob question. I am not sure if this is the right thread to post this, and if its not im sure I will get flamed but, Im currently buying suspension parts for my z. I am going static and I wont be driving the car everyday. However, I want to feel safe while driving the car and I know slamming a car and running a lot of camber will put stress on the stock suspension components. Im the type of guy that likes be as preventive as possible. So in short, what suspension components did you guys replace to keep everything dialed in for aggressive fitment and stretched tires. I know you guys have had a lot of trial and error and just went for it...mad props I just don't want to spend unnecessary money on aftermarket parts I don't need to modify. Any info will help

Thanks Irishguy. Ive had my z for a while now always wanting to go the stance route but never had the extra money. Funds are finally getting loose (knocks on wood). I found myself last night looking at all these adjustable suspension components and I was like **** where do I start, what do I actually need. Im going to start from the top to the bottom, so I will go for the uca's first then coils then camber arms, new bushings etc. Overall, I would like to beef up as many of the suspension parts I can since my car is 11 years old driven daily with almost 196k on the odo. thanks again for the reply

Its a dying trend like the bondo'd cars of the early 00's. And with written laws against hellafrush all over, its over.

Sorry bro but it does absolutely nothing but harm to the car and honestly doesn't even look cool.

Spend your money on making the car better for its purpose! Tearing up the mtns or the track. Not hard parking.

lol if you guys don't like stance/fitment why even bother coming in here and wasting your time typing something that is going to be ignored.

JDMfetish, i am currently 19x9.5+12 front and 19x11-10 rear. Looking to go wider next year to 10.5/11F and 11/12R gotta sell these first though.

Car is looking good holmes. I miss mine.

Well played Sparco. Well played.


Kyle, YEEEEEEUUUUUP!!! I'm officially a boring commuter now. I got a plug-in hybrid almost the same color as that Z.
