KingBaby Speaks ze truth. Moar low. Moar awesome.

Speakin of sorry for those of ya'll that i told i would get up pics of a 295 35 and 275 35. Had em mounted. Sidewall ruptured on my wheels. wasted the tires. Gonna wait till the weather gets better for pics. But it's mighty awesome. I tuck 295's right now. Rear fender to ground height is 24 1/2 in and so is front. Rear camber is at -1.7 for both. so pretty much oem.

I'll get legit pics up in a week.

But shitty Cell phone teasers in the meantime?

I had the extended studs installed tonight by a local shop and put on a 10mm spacer. I'm going in for an alignment on Monday. Its on Eibach Sportlines, only way I can go lower is if I cut the spring mount or go with coilovers (which I would be very happy to do, but I dont spend that kind of money on myself during the holiday season). I think I will go ahead and cut the springmount sometime this weekend if I get a chance.

 

Lookin Boss Already Bro.

 

^^ looks good!

 

Thank you. Im going to do the spring mount mod later this week because it seems more noticeable that the back is higher than the front now. The back wheels look like they are either perfectly even with the front or just barely out further, but there is a gap over the tire in the back and there isn't in the front

and ill get better pictures up today now that the suns out

 

Feedback is very much appreciated, I'm always in need of constructive criticism.

The remote won't fit in the gap in the front tire.


And it does in this gap. I want to close that gap however much i can.


Shots to show fitment





Also, what is missing here? It seems like there's something missing in the hub..

 

275 35 19

not as fat as most of you but the tires fill the wheels perfectly.

 

Okashi - That rear gap isnt so bad. I had about 1/4" more gap on my sportlines with the same wheel/tire size.

Try and get it down to Duckeees height and youll be golden.

 

What would you recommend to achieve that? I'd like to stay with my springs for right now because of Christmas coming up, I only buy gifts and gas until after the holidays.

 

How did you get that camber @ 24.5"? I have my rear @ 26" and my camber is -2.2 with the camber arms extended all the way.

 

Coilovers


To me duckeee's tire gap (or lack of) is ideal but hes on a 275/35. Youd need to go even lower than him for your fender to reach that part of the tire...

Also I wouldnt do a springmount mod since youre rear tires are actually shorter than your front. Your fronts already level out your car a bit, so you might end up with reverse rake. I have some uncut mounts if you want to experiment though.

Overall, sweet ride

 

The rears appear to be higher than the front, I would be cutting 1/4 inch rather than the 1/2 that most people do from what i read. and 275 is easier to reach the fender than a 295? not sure i understand that.

 

Hes on a 35 and youre on a 30, which means your tire is .6" shorter. Given the same ride height youll have about .3" less gap on a 275/35.

 

Got it. I measured from the floor to the to of the wheel well in my garage on front and back and my rear is exactly 3/4in higher.

 

Sounds like the 1/2 inch spring mount mod will have you sitting pretty.

 

 

^ you win

 

trying to get my nismo brother to out do me with meaty tires...so I posted this pic...

EDIT:


Also to show we are almost at same ride hieght. I would to guesstimate that I'm about close to an inch lower. Just goes to show that sizing up tires makes a huge difference in appearance, and some times all that is needed...

 

Eibach Camber Arms in the rear and a very good roll. Relatively short rear tire in the 295 30. I had alot of arm left so...i dun know bro i am just no where near rubbing.

 

I guess that makes sense for sportlines. My front is 1/2 inch lower than the rear, but then again I have 60k on them.

If youre that high in the back I say chop that spring mount. Post pics when you get it done!
