Also does anyone have a motorcycle jack? I need to pop my fender on and swap my front tire around. Don't feel like buying one since I have no where to keep it

I need someone that has a good eye for wheel fitment, camber, etc to come take a look at both of my cars. I have to see if it's worth keeping the Vossens on the g35 and Racing Harts on the g37... I will need to purchase spacers for the g35 and I gotta see how much work will need to be done to the g37 as far as camber arms, fender rolling etc to make the racing harts fit. If it's gonna cost too much money and too much effort then I'll just swap them back.

Do you know the specs on the vossens? The offset on the racing harts were pretty good, but haven't seen the vossens on the g35 yet.

These Volks are 9.5/10.5 and about +18 offset. Just about perfect for me.

So I just ordered a couple small pieces of DOM Steel Tubing to use as tools to press out compression rod bushings. In case anyone else is interested in taking care of those. I have access to a 16 ton hydraulic press at work, so I'll be finally switching out those bad boys with some Energy Suspension bushings I won last December (lol)

If anyone else is interested in doing the same, hit me up

The Vossens are 20x9 +32 and 20x10.5 +45

I'm preeetttyy sure the RH's are somewhere between +22 to +25 all around.

Edit: and the RH's are 19"
