Dropped on Stance Gr+ true style coilovers.. and all the secondary mods that come with that.

To start off with +22 offset all around.. Just curious if I'll need to pull...I'm rolling it once i install everything but will i need to pull dependent upon how low i go?
No pull, just don't go retardedly low and you will be fine.

Raise your car and your problems will go away, no reason to max out your settings..

So basically my car is an interlagos fire, and i'm tryin to have somewhat similar fitment to the Porsche 996 in that pic (why my tires are so huge...) but like a lil lower than that Brickyard..actually a lot lower.

But that 996 is one of my favorite cars of all time.

And that brickyard obviously isn't mine but if the owner of this car doesnt want me using this pic feel free to tell me...

Sadly though everyone i know in south florida is tryin to pull off the form over function hellaflush thing and i prefer having maximum meat to go round the turns wit grip like Spiderman...Just wish I knew someone down here to give tips on the fender modification thing.

that 996 has cut out fenders and wide skirts like mine... its the only reason i went w a "failside" kit.. the widebody is a real widebody, but in the fenders only..

the fronts cant really go as wide as this car, but you can still fit a giant tire up front. ive heard of ppl rolling 275s in front.. dunno.
That pic is my desktop at work too haha.
if you want crazy grip, use very good tires, and make sure you spend your cash on suspension and camber gear, and spend an equally good amount on a real alignment..

I was running a 275/35/18 no problem on Eibach Pros. I have since switched my setup to 19s and run a 255/35 up front. Might try a 275 up front on the 19s and see what happens. My only problem right now is my rear stick to far out but thats my fault for getting -2 offset haha I still like it in a way though. Maybe once I get these KW's dialed in my stance will look a little better.

ahhh, i need some help guys, i'm ordering a set of 19x10 front and 19x11 rear wheels for my Z but i can't wrap my head on the tire sizes in order to keep the VDC/TCS happy. I tried using http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html but i still don't know what i'm looking for. The tires i'd like to fit on is 305/30/19 for the REAR. But for the fronts, do I go with 265 OR 275/30-19 for the FRONT? I've seen many setups while searching on the forum, but no definite answer as to whether this keeps the system happy. I usually find the common 255/35/19, 285/35/19 answer. Thanks guys.

265/275 30 would be fine with a 305/30 in the rear.

Agreed. Otherwise you have to go 255/35/19 front to keep VDC happy. I like the 275/30/19 up there.

305/30 is ~.2" taller than the 255/35. That combo has worked for people before. I also think the 07-09s are less sensitive than the early versions. I say this based on my experience with wheels on my ladies 04' and 07'. The VDC of the 04' was much more sensitive than the current 07'.
