Hey Roplusbee, like FL 4Motion said boss man, I ride/fly low... LIKE A BOSS :icon17:

seriously. im not as low as you are, but ive noticed im low enought hat ive dented my bumper from the decreased suspension travel. ive hit so many dips and bumps hard enough that the wheel is physically denting the lip on the bumper. VICTORxSE has done the same, his bumper is actually cracking because of it!

yup. its pretty common if you're slammed. VICTORxSE has a PG nismo and his is worse off than mine. his paint has started to crack where the wheel hits the bumper

Ouch! I'm thinking about going with 20" with my setup. This is making me pause.

Don't let that stop you guys from a beautiful stance...

Search out a reputable shop for fender rolling and get it done right the first time. I'm way lower than you guys and rolling the fenders is a must!

Also I'll take stock nismo rims from one of you guys...shipped to 96789 under 1k and I'll buy...there are way better in terms of weight than the 07/08 nismo rims.

lol. Well, I just think our Z's look like poo with anything over 19" wheels. It's just not my personal taste is all. I'm much more into function over form (as you can see in my sig) so 20's would simply be adding weight to the car and decreasing it's performance simply for the purpose of acheiving a certain "look". End of the day tho, you gotta go with whateve makes YOU happy broseph. :driving:

Ah!!! great points man. I'm still in the info gathering stage before making a decision. I did come around numerous facts corroborating your arguments though I also read that there were some lighter performance rims. No worries broski, I'll do my due diligence before making a pick :tup:
