get a 1/2 more negative camber on that rear and drop it another 1" and youll be set. Good thing the beginning of that exhaust tip starts directly under your tires so it wont catch the ground.

CAN ANYONE PLEASE CONFIRM??

Im looking to rock:
19x9.5 [+12] w a 255/35 and a 19x10.5 [+12] w a 285/35

my question is, can these specs be ran w less than or equal to -2.5 camber?

I intend on rolling the fenders tight, but DO NOT WANT TO PULL FENDERS.
Plus I will drop the car only till theres a ZERO GAP between tire and fender line.
DOnt like TUCKED and dont like GAP

^^ That is a really nice tire fit/size. It doesn't flex over the rim nor is it stretched.

mike, you installed my gf210's back a couple of months haha. I've since switched to kw v1's. 19x10.5 +12. 285/35 falken FK452's. Fenders are rolled(this is a must). I have no camber kit tho. My last alignment with the gf210's was at -2.2/-2.1. I'm getting an alignment tomorrow, hopefully they can correct the toe without toe bolts, and we'll see where the camber ends up then.

more pics here: https://my350z.com/forum/media-share...installed.html

Alignment came out to driver side -3.0 and passenger side -2.7. Probably won't be bothering with a camber kit.

with these numbers, how much clearance do you have between the tire and the rear fender?

DO you think if you went with an aggressive fender roll [not pulled though] you'd be able to get the camber to -2.5 or less?

I think with an aggressive roll one could bring it back to -2.5, but it really depends on the tire brand as well. I remember people saying that the fk452's run on the narrow side, compared to say the KDW's.

Flip your tires? What are you specifically referring to?
