I've decided to make my Z like this one. Gonna go get some 215 section tires for my fronts, maybe some 225's for the rear, then spend a couple grand getting some custom bodywork to be sure that even with the aggressive stretch, the tires still don't fit under the fenders.

Who needs the car to be safe and drivable anyway?

Now taking suggestions for some dope wide lipped wheels. The more "pieces" they are and the more shiny, the better.

Oh, but be sure they're as heavy as possible and are a huge negative offset so that I'm forced to use a 30mm+ spacer.

Thanks in advance!

So let me get this straight... The OP is widening his car so that he can fit much narrower tires on it than it came with stock?

Huh?

Don't forget to lower it to the point where you high-center the car on a speed hump and knock control arm shaped dents in your fenders. In his defense, at least the OP can raise the car up to be driveable. It's far worse without airbags. And that is a sentence I never thought I'd type.
