Gotta bump this up, wheels are too sick to be ignored
Steller!

 

Thanks!

 

Wow its about time! I've been following your build thread over at myg37 as well. LOL

 

Thanks gents!!!

 

Wheels looks great! Offsets look good, but you could probably use some 5 or 10 mm spacers up front.

 

Thanks. Yeah wasn't 100% sure on front fitment so went conservative. Also thinking of running a 255/295 next time.

 

That's cool. Better to be consertative the first time around. I'd be interested to know how the 255/295 set-up works out, so make sure to keep us posted. I may end up going with 295's in the rear as well, but will probably stick with the 245's up front since I already have WAY too much oversteer (no need for more front traction).

 

Adjust your sways.

 

Not quite sure how adjusting your sways would keep the control arm from hitting the inside of the fender. That can only happen from the suspension over-travelling or soemthing being bent/installed incorrectly. I would make sure that you are running your factory bump stop spacers (yellowish foam pieces) that come on your original shocks. When I swapped to my coil-overs I had to take these off my factory shocks and install them on the coil-overs.

 

A not-as-stiff rear setting will help decrease oversteer.

 

Sorry, I had originally thought you were responding to a different post when you said to adjust your sways. My bad for not reading fully. LOL...

Yup, I've already moved my sway bar to the softest setting and have also softened up my JIC's in the rear quite a bit. The sway bar adjustment helped, but I think the 285's are just too small to handle 500 HP. I'm tempted to go with a softer tire in the rear, but really like my RE760's because they ride so well.

 

I run a R888 305/30-19 on my 550whp 350Z and have all my sways on the stiffest settings. I rather kick out than push forward.

 

Nice! Wish I could squeeze 305's on my G, but it'll never happen without pulling the fender. I'm gonna try for 295's with the next set and might switch to 235's up front.

 

If you're on coilovers with the right offset I'm sure you can without pulling.
