The Official 370Z Autocross Thread

[cjwsrt6]

Would anyone be willing to share what rim/tire combo they're running for autocross? I'm looking to downsize to 18's with 295 35 18 bf goodrich rivals squared, or possibly 285 35 18 rs3's but just wanted to get some ideas of what other people know fit, ie: tire size, offset and such
going to try and stay in CS
I see nismosis is running 295 rivals, anyone know what rim set up he's running?

Wheels and Tires for AutoX

Long story short, if you find a good lightweight set of 18" rims that are C-Street legal, and they're not $700 a wheel, please let us all know what they are ;-)

I run 275/35R19 RS3s front and back on my stock wheels.

Yeah, i think im gonna run cheap knockoff's 9" all the way around and just be happy with it.
Have another question for you guys, I've been running a FS srt crossfire for 3 years, and haven't needed to look at the rules since there isn't much made for these cars, anyway someone asked a question about running nismo shocks/strut bar in a sport 370, these parts are offered from nissan with the sport package, wouldn't this be legal then in CS?

The Nismo sway bars are NOT on the sport package and therefore make using both of them illegal in CS. Can't remember off hand if the shocks are the same between the Sport and Nismo.

Not the same

[cjwsrt6]

You're right they are not the same but they are both options from nissan when building a car online, that's my confusion, years ago you could run any part ad long as it was an option from the factory
