lower !!!! i have a 19x10.5 +30 with a 245/35 out back and cut fender and im rolling at -5º i wish i could be -3 out back and no pull lol but im also about 1'' clearance from rim to fender out back and i think 24.1/2 to 24.5'' from ground to fender out back :-P


ill have some sweet pictures of the car tomorrow for a big meet/show at my buddies shop.. just got done with a decent 4 hour detail

 

yeah im pretty much maxed out on camber and i understand that lower would give me more but i'm concerned about the wheel hitting the fender. when i get time for trial and error and my new arms in i will go lower with more camber. i was also considering putting the 235/35 out back and getting a 225/35 for the front. i might also be picking up some aggressive 18's from a friend getting a new set up for his Z, but will be using them for drift spares.

 

Grant sorry to hear that happened man...dang reverse fender pull. That crap happened to me backing out of Shane's driveway right after we added the larger spacers and did the fender pull. I was so pissed. I got it repaired and haven't backed out of a driveway since.

Cornell, looks good man. Aim to be at 24.5" out back and 24.25" up front, will look money.

 

^ Freakin' expert over here lol. Marcus, how can you eyeball the height from a pic? You got experience carrying around a mini-tape measure or something?

 

I wish I had the luxury of not having to back down a driveway but that's the only way to get into my garage. I have it down perfect or so I thought, I was rushing it that morning and paid the price.

 

LOL, I actually mistyped. I intended to say that he should aim to be at 24.5 out back and 24.25 up front. He told us what his ride height was a few posts up, I'm good but not that good...haha.

 

^ Yeah I misread what you wrote and didnt see his specs. It is conceivable that some wheel/tire/camber experts around here could eyeball wheel well heights tho. If only they would harness their powers for good....

 

Yeah if you know the tire size I guess that guessing the height isn't too hard.

 

i think i gave every about every spec or detail possible so no one would have to ask. i plan on going lower, but i work in a plant at the port of HOUSTON. it is pothole heaven and i cross 3 horrible sets of train tracks just to get there, but if i could do it in my Z i'm sure the sedan will manage.

 

So I finally took my ride for a spin for the first time since having my bags installed. This would be my first set of 19's, did you guys notice any steering differences? I noticed my steering wheel feels really stiff when turning to the left, but I was also told my rack & pinion was leaking so that might be a factor. Just want some insight, did anyone else notice any drastic changes when getting bigger wheels?

 

the ride on 19s is smooth for me.

 

must be the stress on my rack and pinion, and i just found out my transverse link are shot too. damn infiniti's lol. i need to buy a camber kit.

 

could be torn bushings. the transverse link bushings are known to go out and once lowered the compression bushing goes also. most people dont know or realize these. whiteline and spl make replacements

 

I no longer have the most aggressive offsets on a sedan

 

^Your wheels sold, that's awesome Levon. I'm sure you'll soon be back on top, even if you go less aggressive than your previous setup.
