18's on a 370z

This is how she sits after spacers and newly installed spoiler , now I'm just waiting on my rear tires to come in.

Looks good but a drop will make it look even better

Thanks yeah I plan on dropping it but, I'm waiting to see how a 285/40 will look once they come in. Since right now I'm running a 30 profile tire the gap is a little noticeable.

Must be the GF. Any more pics of your cars on these springs guys. Not looking for a really low drop like the swifts... Chris' car looks great.

I'm in Australia, our roads are pretty **** here and I need to be able to get in and out of parking lots and stuff. Ill be on 19"s soon and want a less aggressive but still nice drop.

Would like some suggestions on what tire sizes i may get for a wider set.

18" x 8.0" (front)
18" x 9.0" (rear)

Current tire stock set: 225/50WR18 / 245/45WR18

Not sure on the offset, but everything is still stock. No springs or spacers.
Will most likely add spacers in future when its time to get new tires.

Is anyone running stock 18's on a sport package z? I'm trying to build my winter set early. I was thinking stock 18" with Bridgestone LM-60. My concern is the front caliber is so big it might not fit.
