I'm just waiting end of this weekend or beginning of next i am ordering my BC coils and from there going to figure out what kinda off set I'm going to run ..
without going to crazy what what be a good ideal offset to run and flush/aggressive with around a 3'' drop all around ??
What type of fender work are you looking at doing, flat roll or a slight pull? How much camber do you want to run? Front and rear camber kits?Originally Posted by g35snoop

I'm looking to run around -3 since thats around what i am now and i love it but i want to go around 3'' drop and with natural camber i will be around id say -3.3 around ...
my front with natural camber is around -2.0 and going 3'' will id say around -2.5 which is fine with me
i don't have a camber kit front nor the rear .. im trying to pull all this off without spending an every 500 for camber kits

I would say that you could do 8.5 +10 / 9.5 +15 given that info. You could go down to 8.5 +5 in the front but you would need to "pinch" and flare the front a bit. I would highly suggest getting a rear camber kit (SPC/Eibach kit goes for like $160 or so) so that you can adjust the rear camber slightly as needed (don't wan't to rub with cut fenders fo sure) and adjust your toe, thus extending the life of your tires.Originally Posted by g35snoop

Yeah since you don't want to "go crazy" I would stay away from flaring and pulling. With a 3" drop your toe definitely will not be in spec. Originally Posted by g35snoop

I ordered my BC coils with an SPC camber kit from a vendor on my350z.com and saved money by buying the package deal.
Depending on how much the fender is cut you may be able to roll what is left back some, but from what I understand if there isn't much left you can't really roll it.

how much was it if you don't min d me asking .. from a local guy I'm getting the BC coils for 900+tax ... maybe a can wheel and deal with him to throw in some spc rear camber in there :-) Originally Posted by CandlestickPark

IIRC it was ~$1050 shipped (no tax for me since it was coming from out of state). Ichiba rear camber kit will work (I assume it includes toe bolts as well), haven't heard anything negative about it that I can remember.Originally Posted by g35snoop
