I want to buy 19- or 20-inch wheels for the summer, and was wondering how the car would look w/ and w/o a drop. And if possible, can you list the tire size, wheel size, and amount of drop. Thanks.

 

drops are necessary no matter what! aftermarket wheels and stock wheels!

 

yes u need a drop (at least 1")

goto the Wheel section, there is a sticky thread that tells EVERYTHING u could want to know about ALL the different springs u might want

 

no less than 1 inch (350z h-techs)

 

This is on 19's with no drop... I'd like to drop an inch or so, but I have the KurumaZ front and I scrape everywhere as is, so I'll be leaving it alone for now.

 

looks nice the way it is...see people who drop theres and start putting cheap quality bumpers, etc...really cheapens it, imo. urs still maintains a classy look

 

^hotness

 

here are some pictures, on stock 19's, dropped on 350z htechs:

BEFORE



AFTER



most recent after springs have settled better:


can't really tell from these pics, but i love the drop. i used to hate looking at the car from the side, but after the drop it looks so good

 

Before Drop:


After Drop:




The below is after I had to raise the front a bit. I coudln't take bottoming out anymore!






Dropped on Tein Basics. Max drop in rear and about .75 inch or so in the front

 

are those 19's?

 

what kind of hood is that? post more pics?

 

Diesel1: What did you drop your G on and how low was the drop for you to be bottoming out?

 

it's a custom hood (hood scoop molded to the stock hood)

iirc...

I have 20s with my fenders rolled and i dont see any need for a drop on my car... i have 20s... 8.5 in the front and 9.5 in the back with spacers to clear the brembos. On the other hand, if your going 19s you will definetly need a drop especially in the front imo
