The 305/30 is definitely a tad shorter than 275/35 for the rear, but it is nowhere near as bad as 285/30 (poor recommendation). Trust me, I've posted in numerous threads and got scatterbrained over it. So far I'm happy with this decision, but I have only driven less than 10 mi. since I got the car back. The bumper and headlights are off so I'm going to be without the Z for awhile longer.
Here are some daytime pictures as the springs has settled a little bit more. The formula silver wheels contrast the gunmetal wheels off of tsolin01's car.

Thanks for your feedback and I do trust you on not recommending the 285/30 Rr. I cannot afford to go any wider in the rear than 285/35 with my buldging 25mm spacers. And the fronts, well this time around I think I am better off with the taller stockers 245/40 for fear of sticking out too far with my 20mm spacers and most important fear of scraping up the driveway. I have the sport package +touring which comes with the lower black rubber splash guard as I call it and the front facing mud flaps..haha. They already scrape occassionaly but never has it scraped the bumber itself. I have always loved your wheels from day one. That would be one of my fisrt choices to go with my PG.
SPC Upper Coontrol Arms do have caster adjustment.....BUT....when I had them on my 350Z it was a trade off for camber...meaning if I wanted to be in OEM spec that the caster was going to be more on the forward slant...meaning high speed instalbility...which I never felt any instability at 100 + mph...but not driving at thoses speeds for any substained amount of time.
