I'm with Bullit. I want to see pictures of the -6.7. That's some serious negative camber.

lol i already know the risks and tire wear i'll be getting. I've been doing aggressive fitments for a while and knew what I was getting myself into.

Have you considered doing a widebody kit instead, and bringing your camber back to more sane levels? Or, can they fix your wheels and "add" more (+) backspacing? I don't know if that's even possible.

Nothing is too aggressive if you can make it fit with camber and fender pulling. I understand a lot of ppl aren't into the look and what not but it's what I like, and pushing the limit has always been something that I like to do. Going widebody is out of the question lol, I'll just go more aggressive if I went that route. I wanted this fitment and all I need is 2-3mm more of clearance and I'm set. Not everybody likes HellaFlush or respects what it's about and call it dumb and what not, but with any car modification you're taking risks. And this is something that I like. I'm in the final stages of getting the rears to fit and I'll be good to go. And yes I daily drive the car :D

Also I forgot to mention that when I ordered the wheels I didn't want anything less than a 6.5" lip in the rear, and I got it. Eventually I'll get the fronts out to a 4" or 4.5" bc I still have some room. The front is running -3.5 camber.

Haha. In order to get my car onto the alignment rack at AutoGlitz I had to remove my front bumper. They couldn't get it up the ramp with 2x4's or anything.

LOL I feel ya!!!

I am at the same drop point as you and my exhaust is 1/4" off the ground hehehe. The only alignment racks I can get onto are in ground applications. That is some serious camber and I think you should be fine with a slight pull. Congrats on the 6.5" lip in the rear!!!:tup:

Haha it's part of the game man and thanks. I had two fat guys sit in my trunk and i literally need very little bit to completely tuck on dips. So a slight pull will definitely solve the problem.

That video was just stupid! Talk about totally non functional/not to mention looks horrible. Nice Sti in the vid though.

W.O.W. 370Z 02-07-2011 01:06 PM

Your offsets are all wrong...

kenchan 02-07-2011 01:15 PM

i suppose for a VIP look that's pretty normal-ish.... :icon14: .... (?) but man that looks terrible for a performance oriented car guy.

Stanced370Z 02-07-2011 01:24 PM
