newly PC'd rays and fresh DWS rubber
3 Attachment(s)
275/35 in front, 295/30 in rear, no spacers but considering 15mm bolt ons one set at a time (not sure if they will clear in front)
My car is a driver and will see rain and maybe even snow (by accident) so I wanted an all around tire and was willing to forgo the benefits of a summer tread/compound. While I like the looks of a lowered ride, I can't for now..... too many approach angles and breakovers in my life, most notably my parking garage at the downtown condo. |

How is this setup "285/35/19's ... up FRONT and 305/30/19's in the rear" for autocross on the stock nismo rims? I was thinking of going with a square set up of 285/35/19 on swift springs for autocross. Hummm...... Do you have any rubbing issues with 285/35/19 on the fronts? |
I pulled my 305s off and went back with 275s. Lighter, less noise and easier to get. I don't track my car as much as I'd like so there really isn't a reason to have them. I've had all sizes from 275-305 and my most favorite setup so far was the 285/35.
Great look with great wear/noise/traction. |

Finally have some decent pics for this thread.
Potenza RE-11's, 305/35 rear and 275/30 front. http://www.the370z.com/members/edcon...ve-arrived.jpg http://www.the370z.com/members/edcon...0-img-0011.jpg http://www.the370z.com/members/edcon...8-img-0171.jpg |

Lmao.. It's dropped 1.25 front and 1 rear... I'm actually gonna bring the ride height back up cause I scrape everywhere!

It's normally my front GTSPEC 4 point brace that scrapes, it sits a lot lower in the front, probably 3/4 of an inch. Plus I went to 30 profile front tires which makes it lower still. As long as you hit anything resembling a bump at an angle you are usually good.

The roads up here are meant for horse and buggy, the stock 370Z height is already a gamble... |

If you can find out when i was made you can find out which one you have. I got mine used and the guy sent me his invoice. I pm'ed it to Tony and gave him a call and he confirmed i had the revised version. They look the same the newer one is just a bit higher than the first. |

What's the biggest I can go in the front and rear on 19 rays with 15mm spacers all around on stock 40th suspension for a flush look? No drop, just 15mm spacers On 40th rays. Willing to go a little bit bigger profile to fill the wheel Wells a bit.better without drop.

Ok guys need some suggestions, planning on getting rid of my rubber bands and negative camber, the camber has already been taken care of.. What I want is some meats.. I wanna be able to have the footprint and the performance my car was intended to have. Wheels are 20X10 +15 20X12 +0.. Probably going to be going to a swift spring setup instead of my BC coils too. So what should I be running to get some meat under the car?

20x10 + 30 lowered should allow you a 275-295 depending on camber. I ran a +27 with oem camber, lowered .5" and a 275 and i could have fit a 285. 20x12 + 20 with a 325 tire. OEm camber, again lowered .5". Couldnt have gone wider in the rear. With your offsets your looking at a 255 front and 305 rear... which you could just add on your OEM sport wheels. or adding alot more camber. |

Yeah i think he meant 275/35 & 305/30.
|
I think they're both 30 series. I don't think they have a 275/35 either, would be a bit taller than the 305 30 also
|
My bad. Both are 30 profile. The 275/35 would have been better for the front however bridgestone have discontinued that one.

also to the guy looking at the RE-11's. Check to see if the Advan AD08's come in the right profiles. |
So I'm curious if I went with a spring set up or *cringe* left her stock height what would I be able to go to? I don't mind that they would "poke" but then again I grew up on muscle cars.. I love the wheels and to get a more conservative offset would cost me a fortune to replicate the wheels I have

The wheels you have now must stick out like crazy or you have -3 or -4 camber. Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2 |
The set up I have now I do not believe was intended to be a daily driver set up.. And the FS thread is to gauge interest in them. I want meatier tires and from what I'm hearing that won't be possible even with a mild drop
|
Also to answer your question I was running around -4 camber and found it annoying and impractical.. But it looked sick, however there's no point in having a wide wheel if only half or less of that wheel are going to make contact with the pavement
|
Ad08's don't go over an 18".

I'm kind of in the same boat, except my offsets aren't nearly as aggressive. Idk if I should get a dedicated backup set or say screw it and slap some meaty(er) tires on my 20" SP3's...
Wow, what kind of driving do you do on your 20's? |

My camber is set at 2.6 in the rear. The problem with many setups on here is that people want to have lowest offset possible and deal with the issues of low offsets after the fact. |
