New Sedan (Aggressive rims)

My brother picked up this '06 6MT sedan about a month ago. Over the last few days I installed my old wheels and a moderate drop using tein 350z h techs.
The rims are enkei RPO3's 19x8.5 +22 Front and 19x9.5 +22 with Nitto Invo's 235/35/19 front and 255/35/19 rear.

Yeah, it definitely needed something done. I actually got my body shop to cut the fenders yesterday.

Nice man. Any plans to go lower? With that tire size/width/offset in the rear it would look great (I'm running 9.5 +20 in the rear with Nitto Invos 255/35/19). If you go lower you'll need a spacer in the front, it will be too tucked compared to the rear.

Have you considered debaging the rest of your trunk. Looks like you've gotten the two holes behind the Mt. Fuji filled in and your trunk was repainted, would look great without any badges back there IMO.

Thanks marcus, your car was actually what inspired me to try these wheels on his car. I don't think he wants to go lower yet, but he probably will at some point. I was thinking that once the it goes lower I would go with a 5mm spacer up front.

Yup a 5mm up front would be money. I have a 245/35 8.5+15 up front and I could probably still go a bit more agressive. With a 235 tire you should test if a 10mm too to see how it fits.

I dig the wheels, I think your fine just the way you are, offset is great, he needs to make turns and u turns if he dumps it

He'd have to get smaller tires with an additional 10mm in the rear. I think 255is too wide. Even if you added a bunch of neg camber I don't think it would clear.
