your PS work looks real close to the real deal on fitment. I have the same fitment on mines, running 225/40 and 245/40. What tire sizes are you going to run? I found that the fenders dont need any rolling as I havent really lowered my car much - 1/2"-3/4" on coilovers. From the looks for things, it can go lower if you setup the camber enough.

^ yeah i took the rims from Slick 6MT here on these forums, and i know its +12, so was pretty close. Im not too sure on the tires yet but i know im going to stretch them just a little. and i dont have a chamber kit so my wheels are way in the negative.

cool, the 225 and 245 has a nice stretch to them and, it will not screw up your speedometer reading. there were a lot of people that would suggest going with 245/275 but the overall diameters are shorter than stock, and you'd have to lower your car a lot more to fill in all the gaps. And it will register a faster speedo reading, not necissarily a bad thing if you dont mind your odometer picking up mileage faster than it should be.

well, the drop on my car is very mild, i'd either need to add more camber and/or roll the fenders if i went lower. i dont know how low s-techs lower the g35.

Not as bad as stretching a 205 or 215 on 10" wide rims.
