I knew it was coming; I had to chuckle!

a stock nismo is 9.5, +40 and 10.5, +23

Why the hell would anyone buy something worse than that? boggles the mind

keep your stock wheels until you can afford something better
seems like a pretty simple concept
doesn't need to be te37 ultras
lots of decent stuff out there

If you can’t even post constructive criticism why even post? Seems like you must be a waste of life optionzero

Hahahah
If you can't handle someone calling out your crappy wheel sizing then you might need to take better advantage of living in Colorado, smoke more weed

What about some Niche Mulsanne step lip wheels? I have a stock suspension but plan do drop it bout 1-1.5 inches. I’m looking for a big lip and flush fit. Sorry I don’t know much about offsets. I’m thinking 19x11 rear and 19x10 front

Back up to quote #2579 of this thread,,,search the thread on this forum that’s posted on bottom of that post (it’s not hyperlinked), look through all of those Z’s & you’ll get an idea of what you’re looking for/ as far as lowered part & wheel/tire specs....then you can get a good idea of the wheel,tire,fuca’s & any other parts needed for alignment with the lowering.
That’s a very good starting point.

Might wanna learn about wheel sizing by reading through the wheel fitment threads in this forum

Find a setup you like
Go from there

You're throwing out terms like "big lip" and flush
If you wanna go there, be prepared to do what it takes

Whether you have the budget and effort is step 1

When I see and read people having -2 to around -3.5, that doesnt seem anywhere near "extensive camber" Why do a lot of members on here act like it is? I had -3 on my G35 and it hardly looked aggressive or extensive/ too much. I also go 15k miles out of my rears.

am I missing something?

You're missing this isn't a Honda fanboi page? lol
Slammed cars with massive camber are not meant to be driven track, spirited or otherwise anything really aggressive without accepting that you are about to trash your ride in some way shape or form. Buuuuuttt.... if you're slammed and make your fairlady look like a fat lady in Uggs, you probably don't care about trashing your ride... more... :nutswinger::gtfo2::rofl2:

cuts deep! If this post isnt 100% honest, I dont know what is. Some people need Options tough love to listen to whats being said.

Dont worry man, Iv been on this site since the beginning

Iam confused though, none of your post has anything to do with me or my question. What you've done here is just take my post as an opportunity to talk sh*t about people that slam their cars or go hellaflush. If you look at my sig, youll clearly see, Im not into doing that to my cars. I was looking for insight from people that think -3 camber is extreme. You should try and give your personal view on camber, not sh*t talk peoples tastes.

Unless you think -3 camber and a 1.5 to 2" drop is slammed and crazy camber, than that would explain your post, as vague and poor as it was.

very clearly. Referencing extreme camber is a very narrow margin in a Z. Lil less confused now? ...:hello:

and I gave it. Multiple times now. I'll search for my "how to modify a car contrary to design for dummies" in a bit.

more irony... guess we weren't done :nutswinger:
Insight = opinion and reasons for it. All if which you ask for, you got, then whined about. Now... Do you have a real question about fitment or more "gimme opinion so I can tell you you're wrong" BS? If you've been here since the start, you should know better. Or you are just a troll looking for a fight...
Hint for next round: less personal ego and butthurt, more paying attention to sarcastic wit and dry humor... even denoted with chuckle worthy emjoi

Some people here helped me with my fitment a few months ago, and I finally got them on today! Went with Forgestar's recommended "flush" sizes; 19x9.5 255-35r19 Front and 19x11 305-30r19 Rear. They are very flush and even poke a little, in love with the look.

here ya go. You dont need to see TEs specifically, just need to see 19s with very similar offsets and a car with the ride height you want. I personally would only be able to give an estimate. There are members here that would be able to give you a really close set of specs.


Besides, its fun to look at all the set ups people have.
