Default just ordered some new wheels...quicky question

just put an order in w/ the wheeldude for some Rota Boost wheels in GOLD. 18x9-F, 18x10-R + 20 all around. Hope it'll look nice on my CS Z...

Pix to come as soon as I get some tires...

Quick question too

1. Think I need spacers? (don't think so on a +20 offset)
2. How low should I drop the car for it to look nice (was thinking about NF210 springs)

thanks !

with NF210 springs, should look good. Eventually you're going to want coilovers. Your offsets are good. Eventually you are going to want spacers

^ dude that's not a good recomendation.

OP: you are asking these question a bit too late. Why didn't you do some research before ordering your wheels? You're best bet is coilovers now and not later, don't ask why unless you wanna find out the hard way.

I suggest you first find out what your goals are. What look are you gonna go after. All these things will help you narrow down your options.

thanks for your reply.

I'm not new to the game and know exactly why coilovers are needed, but i am not going to track the Z, ever, nor do any form of auto-x, unless it just happens to work with my sched...only thing I might do is drift and it works fine right now w/ vdc off. As far as the questions they were more towards look, not performance...

its up to you , some think it will be plenty flush, other think you will need a 40mm spacer to be flush.

your doing it for looks , well looks are all subjective. Make it look best for you or figure out who your going to be posing for and get their opinion.
