06 G35 Sedan, lowered on BC coilovers, and LC Lemans

Pretty new here and just picked up a used 06 sedan 6MT, great car with the exception of a few things that needed to get taken care of.

Just finished installing coilovers (BC 350z coilovers to be exact) and cutting the fenders(I cut the lips rather roll them, it's a bit messier but easier and less to mess with) to fit the Linea Corse Lemans wheels (19x8.5/10, 235/285).

I'll get some better pictures soon, these were just taken with my iphone since I JUST finished. Camber kits are going to be ordered soon.

No way, I'd have to run some crazy rear camber to get the rears to fit if I were to run the g/z offsets. The car is daily driven and 19" tires aren't cheap, unless I had custom fenders done there would be no way to make them fit right.

Hopefully I'll have time to take some better ones tomorrow, if so I'll have them up in the evening.

Why would I need to run spacers? As soon as the camber is fixed the front will look flush and the rear will have an even more difficult time staying in. At this moment I still can't pit one finger between the rear tire and the fender.

snapped some quick shots before I left for work, only difference is that I used an actual camera and not the iphone again. I'll actually take it out for some better side shots.

The front strakes/mud flaps already scrape the ground.
I like the drive-ability of the stance it currently has, my TSX was lowered a bit more and it became a hassle to drive in some circumstances.

Thanks!

You could get away with about -2 to -2.5 degrees of camber with a pretty aggressive offset, just need to pull the fender a little. That's not too crazy of negative camber...You could be in the high teens for offsets and be fine with that much camber and the pull....but once you get into the single digits and closer to 0, you'll need -3.5 to -5 degrees of camber...again, all depends on wheel width and offset.
