Thats the rear fitment, there is no way that would fit up front too with the stock fenders.

I'm serious, i swear i thought i read that, and that they said they had to use some serious camber to tuck those wheels in.

If thats true, I want to know what front camber kits Japan has that we dont!

i'm trying to find the info, because i know i read it here on this forum. now i'm curious but i'm like 95% sure

Togo · 07-07-2009, 04:29 PM

OK, well i was half right. It is 19x10.5 all around but not +22 all around. It's +22 Front and +15 Rear...

here is a link i found... TAS 2009: Sunline Racing SLR Sport Aero Kit Debut | 370zblog.com

I call mis-information or mis-print.

SSR recommended 9.5+22 front and 10.5+15 rear which is the same offsets listed above. Plus a 255 tire on a 10.5 rim would look WAY more stretched than in those photos.

I wouldn't put it past misprint, which is why i only claimed that i thought i read they were those sizes.

I thought it was odd though that they left the staggered for a non-staggered setup

New set of Nitto NT05 tires showed up today! 275/35/18 front 285/35/18 rear. We'll see how the less staggered setup does August 1st & 2nd. We'll also find out if running a wider and stickier tire up front will uncover any more weaknesses with the car. Hopefully not, fingers crossed. My biggest concern to be quite honest is the SPC Camber arms either hitting the top of the wheel wells and/or not holding the alignment settings under hard load.

Mike, you should be able to check the wheel well for impact marks when you swap tires before this event, correct? Keep us posted!
