The "Will it fit?" thread

Hum.. so what I'm reading and understanding is I should get me some drags, and camber arms to set the rears to 0. This should greatly help lay it all

Hum.. so what I'm reading and understanding is I should get me some drags, and camber arms to set the rears to 0. This should greatly help lay it all down w/little to no change to my ability to corner?

Nobody said it would affect your cornering ability; you added that.

You want to go fast in straight line 0 camber in the rear, you want to corner...camber helps!

Thanks for the information, I completely forgot about the computer...always had an old school muscle car so never had to be concerned with keeping the computer happy. Does anyone have a feel to the delta in tire height when problems arise on a 370? How does the problem manifest itsself...ABS come on too soon....fronts lock up?

Found this article. My other question is Do I need the Toe bolts with SPL camber arm? I don't think I will be doing the DIY until I get a car lift (which might be never) but want to know in case there is a crazy sale and these parts are practically given away.

Call them up or await for someone who has them; I know that you want to lock the camber bolts to a fixed position & adjust at the arm...not sure if you are purchasing the rear toe arms also. SPL is Premium stuff $$$....they should be able to walk you through what you need.
Mine is still stock & is maxed at -1.7* and this is what a burnout does with 275/40's on back... Notice the inner part.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1447977225.263067.jpg

I have front/rear SPL camber arms and did not need toe bolts.

Go to [official]370z wheel fitment guide (pics/specs) only
There is a blue one with that size on 20's
Post #31 , so they would be 1" taller than the 19's ImageUploadedByTapatalk1448318707.507305.jpg

alright, one more for you guys. after a lot of back and forth i´d decided to go 20x12 in the rear, however, after coming to that conclusion I decided to switch my suspension setup for a true-type coilover.

i know after reading Rusty´s comments as well as discussing it a bit with him that this will limit the width of tire I can go with. So long dreams of 345s in the back

at any rate, i suppose my question is, should i not only give up the idea of runing 345s but also that of running 12s. Is anyone running 12s in the rear with true type? should i go down to 11s and stick with a 305 in the rear? i think this is the safe bet, but that´s no fun, hahaha.

i don´t want extreme camber or too much poke, so that´s what makes the problem more interesting.

as always thanks for the help and comments.

You could still run 12's with 325's. Think you would have room with a true coilover.

Not sure about coil over clearance/ but measuring my base : with 18" wheels & -1.75 camber....looks like my pinch point is gonna be the traction/ trailing arms(closer on rt.) 3" backspace everywhere else...snug at filler cap.
I like them 345's on 12's, but my plans were to stand the tires more upright & that gap at traction arm will get closer??? Won't know until I put on SPL camber arms & set it up.

yea, i guess i could wait til i have the suspension together and measure everything to see how much room i am playing with. i am just impatient and want to buy my wheels and tires. i guess i´ve waited this long, i can wait a few more weeks.
