Fronts -2.5 and rears -1.5. I have to raise it up though or adjust both for more negative. Not sure what to do as I like the height.

I run -3.3f -2.0r which gives me the proper tire temps and good tire wear. I am so close to pulling the trigger on the same wheel setup, with 275/35/18 NT-01. Probably only a 10mm or 15mm rear spacer though. Post more pictures!

Hmm good info! Looks like I'm gonna need front camber arms. The rear shouldn't be a prob at -2.0 and that might save me from raising it up.

Can the 370z run 285/35/20 on the front?

I'm just gonna chime in, I run 285.35.19 as my race tire, I wouldn't go any bigger, the tire is close to the inner suspension, outer fender and inside fender well. Any bigger you might rub, but hopefully someone can chime in that has ran this size for you

Thanks . I was thinking something alone those lines, i am running 255 and at least for me they are fat enough unfortunately the Toyo R888 for 20" only comes in 285 for the front so i will have to look elsewhere for another brand.
