I feel your pain. That's why I got mine in as soon as possible!

Do it... just make sure you get true coilovers for the arse!

I need just a hint more gap, I scrape too much. Ordered some linear spacers for the tail end so I can get it up another 1/2" then I should be good to go.

Wheels are looking great!

You'll lose that tiny bit of poke on the rear when you lower it

Just a touch is all it needs. It looks really good. :tup:

I was really nervous about the offsets. There is a little poke but I think once it comes down a few notches, it will look :yum:

Yep, maybe even a hair less than half. Will see

And thanks :)

Definitely.

I'll need a little less offset than you since I want to run 275/325's, and I'm not a particular fan of camber! Sitting around -2.5 rear right now and want to be -1.5 to -1.7 tops.

Am a bit nervous about the offsets too. Think that's why I've been putting wheels off :)
Especially for that kind of coin, I want to be fully positive it is going to land exactly where I want it.

Yeah, the front was my biggest worry, would look :superghey: if they stuck out too much.

No argument there! :icon17:

I was checking out how the Nismo wheels sit on slidetoys 15 yesterday, and with some meatier tires would probably be bang on where I want them. Which is 5mm inside of the fender, measured at the bulge of the rubber. Fronts perhaps 10mm spacer, but that's just by eyeball.

That said he is stock ride height so can be deceiving too..

That is one of my troubles, I have nothing I can see in person. I looked at sooo many pictures with different offsets and just hard to judge some angles and gaps.
