I forgot to take the spacer off as I test fit the first wheel......had one of those oh poop moments when I saw how far it stuck out. I would have had to run enough camber to make the hellaflush guys go whoa! I still hope to run a 12" wheel and 315's for Nationals next year 
. Some fender work will be required.

have new wheels on the way. ccw c14's custom made with a step lip. should be done any day now. fronts are 18x11 and the rears are 18x12. cant remember the exact offset, i know i am sorry. but was planning on running 275 35 18 up front and not really sure about the rear. need suggestions. planning on a roll and mild pull. dont mind negative camber, it is not a daily driver. want the most grip as possible. leaning towards r888's or maybe a6's. makes 600whp on a dyno dynamics on pump. also coilover suggestions. thanks for your advice in advance.

im usually on the stretch tires forum, but i recently built my block and upgraded to aps extreme twins. pushing 500+ and running on stretch tires isnt safe at all. i experienced that last night. so ive been looking at wheels with higher offsets. im planning to pick up those forgestars that are for sale, 19x9/11 +24 with 255/40/19 & 305/30/19. they came off a 370z, will they fit my 350z?? renders are rolled and pulled. my ride height is like inches off the ground. i wouldnt mind raising the car up for tire clearance. i just wanted to see if those specs would fit with no rubbing issues.

camber is the only setting that has much flexibility depending on your needs. Around -1.5 f/r seems like a good balance of performance and tire life. Closer to -2 if you care less about tire life, closer to -1 if you want your tires to last longer. Caster, toe, etc. you are probably best letting them put them in the middle of the acceptable ranges unless you are trying to tweak your suspension for competition.

If your fenders are rolled and pulled you will be fine. Might be able to get away without being pulled but you already are.

Here we go, my first meaty set up. Picked up some Forgestar F14 19x9/11 the guy i bought them from (nismofo) had 255/40 in the front and 305/30 in the rears. i didnt understand the tire combo, cause a 40 series is a bit more from a 30 series. i have to ride with vdc off. that 305 is holding up 500+rwhp. thats the main reason why im running these. but here you go..

Well I finally was able to change setups. I have gone from the 18s to 19s.
VOLK GT-S
19x9.5 +17 255/35/19
19x10.5 -2 285/35/19
I will be putting coilovers on in the next week or so. So for right now the Eibach Pro springs will have to work. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Here you guys go.
