***Official Aggressive Wheels & Fat Tires Thread***
 
Only 285 and above qualifies!

Let's see the auto x setups!

Let's see the full on race/track setups!

Let's see motherfcuking 315s in the back!

No 4x4 truck stance with nasty wheel gap!

Searched for hours lots of dead links. So I can't start it off. Post them up!

In to put my pictures on top when I get to a pc.

This is exactly how I expected to see this thread start...talk and no pics...There might be only a dozen or so 370s on these forums that fit in this thread sadly :(

305/30's on nismo wheels w/ 15mm spacers and 1" tein spring drop, camber is a lil worse than -2 degrees.
not crazy aggressive but rather tire friendly

Really like the 305's on the rear. Any pics from directly behind?

Kingbaby 05-11-2011 07:56 PM

Thankyou all for being Posting your beautiful rides. Your doing it correctly, this is a forum. Suppose to be a wealth of Knowledge/Opinions!

Knowledge in letting fellow members know what's good camber with a setup and what's bad camber. What's eventually gonna fail due to wear, what's parts will help prevent lost of quality of ride, and guidelines to achieving a awesome look.

Opinions about square versus staggered! Does my a$$ look fat? What tire brand has a better life on a application versus another brand. Does this look like too much tire? Never!

Again I appreciate that this thread didn't get sucked in by the admin around here. Glad to see this place is somewhat fair and just.

The 370z has a huge advantage over the 350z frame for taking a bigger tire. Let's see more. Even if you've posted one shot of your car with specs. Please by no means stop, it's not considered shoring in anyway. The more pics help with the newbs/noobs deciding what they feel is the look they want to achieve. Either for sheer looks, or track focused means!

Bump

From way back in '09 when I first started doing mod's to my Z:

TE-37's with RE-11's (265 up front & 305 in the rear):

http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/n.../tony-p-10.jpg

Without the rear camber kit:

After adding the rear camber kit:

2011....now with air ride suspension. Still have the TE-37's & RE-11's just not during this photo....put the stock rims & tires on for winter driving.

I challenge anyone to fit more tire under the car than that!

In for pics. But why does one need such thick tires? The rolling resistance and groove tracking must be horrendous!

Yea I actually had to camber it in from the excessive rubbing. Just havent taken any pictures lately

OMGWTFBBQ 05-12-2011 05:29 PM

How much camber do you have in the front? I'm running 18x10 +15 255/40/18 in the front with -2.5 degrees and it doesn't rub.

Your inner tire wear must be significant, though a bit of toe in can help with scrubbing the outside.

Waiz 05-12-2011 06:37 PM

Kingbaby come on man, it seems to me like you're intentionally inciting people. You have good intentions with this thread but I would recommend you don't take things so seriously. :eekdance:

Sick setup!

I'm sure that front rubbed like a mofo before the camber.

Just a couple of quickies as I only had a crappy camera with me. This extreme sized setup is auto-x only, I don't drive on the track or the street with tires this big as it would track like a SOB. The car is slightly lowered, I would prefer to drop it a little more but the roads around here are pretty horrible and there is already a couple of places that I can scrape.

I was going toe to toe with a prepped Z06 Corvette which had essentially the same tires, in the end I bested him by 0.7 seconds. Poor guy was getting thrown around like a rag doll, still has the awful stock Corvette seats. He said at the end of a run his forearms were on fire from hanging on for dear life. He had the new race seat with him in the trailer and was going to swap it over at lunch but he never got a chance.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_a...0/IMG_0725.JPG

My front got raised a bit by putting these on. Will have lower it about an inch to even things up. Also the camber is sitting at an estimated -.5 front and -.9 rear. So have to adjust those.

But even still, so far zero rubbing and if it was gonna rub it would have when i go in/out of my driveway.

With the slight lowering and camber adjustments, im thinking I may go to a 285/335 next if i feel like spending the extra money on michelins.

Love those wheels.

With the wide tires in the rear you have to watch out for toe link bolt rubbing against the edge of the tread under high lateral load. Your wheel offset is slightly further out than mine so you should be good.

Wow, very nice, congrats on a setup that is very different. At least from what I have seen in the past although I am semi new to the Nissan dark side.

Same thing. 18x10 +15 255/40 in front. Exact setup in the rear (square) except with a 30mm spacer making the effective offset -15.

I recently sold that setup and went back to square sport package Rays. 19x10 +30 275/35 all around with 30mm spacer in the rear. I like it.

dmhenderson 12-19-2013 09:59 AM

Figured this might be the right place to ask. I'm going to switch to RE11s in the spring and thinking about going 275 or maybe even 285 front and 305 rear.

I know the 305s in the rear will work but does anyone know if 275s/285s will fit on the front stock nismo rays?

Tirerack says 9-10" for 275 with 9.5" ideal so 285 would definitely fit on a 9.5" though will be slightly pinched.

Edit: I have no idea if it will have clearance issues.

dmhenderson 12-19-2013 03:04 PM

Now I'm wondering if I shouldn't just push it to 315s on the rear for the additional traction.
