Does anyone know how this set up would look with just hotchkis springs on stock suspension? I know the drop is less than 1.

Yes, they will rub.

I didn't initially have the fenders rolled. After the spacer install I took the car around the block once and it rubbed pretty bad. So I got them rolled the next day by forum member tonys18t.

Btw if anybody needs to have their fenders rolled/pulled, Tony is your guy. Big two thumbs up for his work. He knows the **** out of fender rolling and his prices are really good.

Default Worth Buying -19" G35 Rays?

They are off a 2003 G35 and the rear tires are in decent shape and front are shot. NO TPMS.

Guy is asking $600- I'm tight on cash but would love these.

Yes or no. Got to let the guy know asap. My current wheels are base 17" stocks with bald rears. So not sure if I should sell these and get the Rays and invest the $$ in tires.

Personally I wouldn't since I was never a fan of putting any stock wheels on. Save your money now because you'll probably wish you had gotten something less common soon enough.
