looking for a look like this any suggestions on wheel sizes?
IIRC that's jimster718's car and the specs of his wheels were pretty conservative. Been too long, the car was sold a few years back.

Think I'm going to stuff a R888 315/30 on my 11's whenever the time comes for new tires. I foresee it soon as I have yet to drive my Z with it's new found power.

What Lowering Springs did you use? Have you heard of the Rear Spring Moount Mod? I did it to shave 10mm in the rear and now I sit even. I have Eibach Pro Kit Springs.

^Nice sizes, do you have any other angles of that front tire to share? Im looking for the perfect fit 275/30 on a 9.5. Many are too stretched.

Here's a closeup. (its on a lift, that's not a gap! lol)

I will say, there's a little bit of rub in some situations. May go 265/295 next time. But the Invo has a nice sidewall!

After seeing Russ' car(thanks a bunch ) I am planning on changing the tire setup. Heres my question.

I really like the Hankook V12's great driving tire and just enough traction. They make a 275/35/18 for the front. The rear they make a 295/30/18 Will that mess with anything??

The sidewall will be off by .3 (3.8 - 3.5) The tires are going on a square 18x10.5 +15 rpf1 setup.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
