I am on BC coilovers with spc camber/toe in the rear...I will probably have to get a front camber kit as well. I will mount them once the weather breaks for sure and I can get under the car and install my sways. I will be dropping the car a little more and will likely have to roll the fenders....
265/35 or 265/30? I've seen people run the latter with a 295/30 out back so that both F and R are the same % off, but I don't know that I'd do 265 out front...
Ironically I want to run the RE-11s but it's just not a smart financial or performance decision as I'll be using the G for daily driving and the RE-11s are overkill for that. I'm going with the Hankook v12s as well, for the money and the performance it's impossible to beat.

I was worried about that as well. They are 265/30 and 285/35. He says he has the model with VDC and had no issues. When I replace tires I will go down to a 255.

I was impressed by the test results in Car and Driver on the v12's. Every review I have read on them has been fantastic. It will just be a treat for me to wear out the current RE-11s

Hey,

So first of all, I want to thank Mike (IRockAG35) for helping me with my black grille and SRI install this past weekend. I thik it all turned out great! I attached "before" and "after" pics here. I got a CEL after SRI install, so got scared and chose to not install the grounding wires just yet. Luckily it went away on its own, so I plan on installing it soon.

My next mods are as follows:
1. BB grounding wires
2. Illuminated kickplates
3. Tint - 35% F1 Pinnacle all around. Plan on going to Quality Window Tint
4. Interior LEDs - I made my purchase today and will post pics when I get them. One question for others: Has anyone changed their backup and parking lights? Looking at other posts this seems somewhat difficult. Also, what about glove box light - anyone attempt this?

Thanks guys and happy modding!

Just curious has anyone tried putting g37 front on a g35? Like a front end swap. They did these alot on S10s and Tahoes a while back. I do not know how this would flow with body lines and such but it would be interesting to see.
