You can run UAS system on your car. Just make sure and talk to him and let them know what kind of suspension you are running and they most likely have you measure the diameter. On my wheel set up I am running 19x9 +32 with a 20mm spacer and 19x10 +32 with a 10mm on there, for tires I am running 225/40 255/35 with the 10mm space it was hard to dive with people, I think with more neg camber or a bigger pull I can keep that. But since my car is a daily, I will keep the 10mm spacer off.

I'll talk to him when I'm ready. I'd like to sell my 18's and 19's to find a nice set of 20's for the summer. Makes sense. That's a mean setup though. Did you have to roll your fenders? If you put more negative camber and stretch the tires a bit, that would tuck nice. It's no lie about choosing the right sizes and angles...it's becoming rocket science. lol

Yes they are rolled, as for stretching tires. I would love to but running a diameter close to stock it hard. Alot of companies dont have certain tires sizes that I would need.

Alright guys. Had my X for less than a week and have put together my list of what I would like to do. And I want to buy 18" wheel/tires. Will I have to lower so it doesn't look stupid? If so someone please tell me the best lowering option. Also don't really want to mess with toe/camber.

18's come with sport g35 sedans. They dont look stupid at all. Obviously you would want to lower them some way to make it look better.

I have one of the best OEM 18's setup for the sedan, which are the 18's 350z track wheels. They look ok no lowered, well the rears do, i never had the fronts on w/o lowering. But i d have 265/40's on the rear.

I have an X with 18's w/ stock springs. It doesn't look bad, but you will want a drop. I'm going with Tein H Techs, so I can get a decent drop and not mess with camber.

i'll just be direct and honest at this point.

if you want to get rims get rims, expect the worst. If you want to lower the car, lower the car. "Looking stupid" is in the eye of the beholder. You always have to pay to play. Want to be cheap spend $100 on 350z stock springs, pay a shop about $300 to install and then get your rims. Otherwise roll the dice.

People drive around with rims all the time w/o lowering the car. If you think it looks ugly then dont do it.

Went through every page and didn't see an X on 18's with Tein H Tech springs. Does anyone have a picture of that drop handy?

i use to have H tech springs on my sedan. the drop was good, but i had 19's.
best springs i had on my G were the H&R. not a real big diffrence in drop compared to the tein but the car felt better on the H&R
