Va Beach / Hampton Roads G owners?
And back to orginial query...after lowering my vehicle would i have to worry about the spacers applied due to the slight lateral tip shift of the tires during turns. If the rims cambered from the springs then they would tuck slightly, but perfectly solving the issue, but then would provide uneven wair. In my case though, i have GODSPEED "A arms" and adjustable rear knuckles for the wair issue. Just tweaking the minds of the intellectually inclide monkey
25mm is the way to go......check some pics on my driver profile..I ran those 25mm on my.sedan and coupe
I am going to go surgery on the G this weekend when I get back. Joey doesn't want to roll my fenders because he says the paint will crack. I am thinking of just shaving the lip off and throwing my spacers on. +24 offset with 20mm spacer for grand total of +4 offset. What do you guys think?
You can definitely find some more useful information than that. The offset is the distance from the hub of the wheel to the edge of the rim. the lower the offset, the further it pushes the wheel out (closer to the fender). The wheels WIDTH also has everything to do with how close it will be to the fender too. MOST wheel fitment can be determined with simple measuring, geometry, and experience (a knack) for this sort of thing. Most of it comes from guys who are die hard and have a lot of trial and error. When you're talking about stock wheels though people experiment with that all the time .... if you're on stock 19s get 25mm in the rear and 20mm in the front and call it a day.
Thanks brohiem, i'll take those recommendations to the bank.

The only time you will see camber wear is at the end on the tires life. Near 2/32nds....I mean what do I know...I just work for Infiniti....
They only alignment issue that would cause to eat up your tires is the toe adjuatment. I don't have any aftermarket arms on bolts. Just getbyour" TOE" with in specs and your good.....every 3degrees off on the toe adjustment, is equivalent to the tired being dragged 28ft every mile.

I didn't realize Buddah already had a cookout on the 24th. But I just got back from Deployment so I was already planning one and Just thought i'd put an invite out to meet up with you guys.
I have only met John so far and John's (NOT ASIAN) Step dad and his girlfriend lol.
I really look forward to meeting the rest of you guys and Buddah, I am down for a fall get together. That would be awesome.
As I see it Im the only tech here and the rest are enthusiast. So we helped you hope to see you around often. Not dis appear like some other members
