Im going to be picking up a Z next week, and i have a couple questions for you. First i plan on ordering 20" Iforged rims (had them on my m3 and loved them) what is the widest tire sizes i can run for the front and the back? Second what BBK is best, Its going to be a show car so the bigger the better (brembo made a 15" kit for the m3 but i guess they dont make one for the Z) It has to be a front and rear kit as well. Also what springs do you think are the best for lowering the car? If you guys/girls could help me out i would greatly appreciate it.

14.1" is the largest BBK for the Z33... Stop Tech is what I would recomend... their drilled brakes are beautiful...
you can go 20x9 / 20x10.5... but with 245/30/20 / 275/30/20... anything more would be cutting it close...
Depends on the type of ride you are looking for as far as springs...
Ebach prokit = 1" all around... a cushy ride with alot of added body roll due to the progressive spring...
Tein S-Tech = looks like 3/4" all around when lowered and gives the car a similar to stock feel with little body roll and less bounce...
Tanabe GF Sustech = biggest drop out of all of the springs and a feel similar to the Tein S-Tech...
let me know if there is anything I can help you with building your car up to everything you ever dreamed and more...
you can read up more on suspension parts at www.performancenissanparts.com
Enjoy the Z when you get it!

- widest i've seen in person is 295, but that was with a 19" rim. not a lot of z's out there with 20s yet. you could always go wider, but will need to roll the fender.
- stoptech.
- tein are quite popular among z owners.
good luck.

ooops im sorry... Endless has one 15" kit on a Z... but I do not believe that kit is in production...
I have seen 295's on Z's too... but... not on a 20 unless it had a wide body kit...
you have to rely on the side wall bending in to keep from rubbing the fender...
you will be supprized at how well 19's look on the Z....
