Were you expecting issues with those smallish tires?


I cut down a hoosier race tire on the fender today (it pulled the fender lip out and cut it like buter). Will be posting a pic in a bit to show why it happened (big time airborne over a bump).

 

Tire cut down upon landing: This was as the car was coming down...not its highest point.

 

^ Great shot.

 

not that doesn't look safe...

Was that due to the course condition?

EDIT:

didn't read..

 

Awesome shot 03threefiftyz! Too bad about the tire.

 

That is an awesome picture! Haha.

 

275-40-18

 

I have 275 40 18s on and 11 inch wide rear but I think I need 275 35 to get rid of that rediculous sidewall.

 

just mount a 295/35 on the rear , 275/35 is a front tire

 

You need to join the SBC

 

315/30/18 square
18x12 +22 rear
18x10 +17 front
(Sorry for the watermark. Didn't want to pay the photog fees for the originals.)


And this is how I get them to the track...

 

what are you doin on 40 series? bump it to 255/35 - 285/35 rear

 

looks great Jarrod

 

Love the set up, just wouldn't trust the rack mounted into the plastic clip on panels. Would have made life easier for me if I trusted a roof rack on my Z

 

Well done.
I use a hitch with a bike rack for two, then the other two and gear inside.

 

FYI I got the 370z 19s 19x10 widened to 19x12s, the 305 is stretched on it. It did rub very slightly on the shock dust cover with the 10mil spacers. So I added a 5mil for testing, and drove for a few days. Car is in shop getting the final (seriously im done done with performance) tune on the blower.

I might go twin charged one day though.

Car is at the shop so no pics as of yet. I dont have the bread for the 345s yet but with a 15-20m spacer all looks well. I have room going directly up from the rim to my fender so should be a perfect fit. Might have to pull (very slightly if at all to fit) maybe 2 to 3 mil if that.

FYI I am not running coilovers, just upgraded shocks to save space under the car.

I will be moving 305s to the 19x10s on the front 370z 19s once the 345s come in. Maybe July 13th-ish

not my rim but looks just like this. Rated up to 1500 ft tq

 

Thanks man.. I will look in to it.

 

Thanks man.. I'll look into it.

 

Should I even ask what the SBC is???

 

Nevermind I just looked it up haha
I would but its no longer on there.
