So with the G S-techs, can any rear camber kit do? Does it require toe bolt also? Would the front need a camber kit also?

Ok i could REALLY use an answer here....

I am getting 350Z H-Techs to put on my g35 w/ sport suspension.


The tires i am running are

Axis Shine Wheels

20" x 10" +20 rear (285/30/20)
and
20" x 9" +15 front (255/35/20)



When i lower on the 350z h-techs, will i rub?

I know i will need a rear camber kit eventually. but i need to know if i will have to roll my fenders also during the install? (rolling fenders= scares the crap out of me, i dont want to chip or crack my paint!)

you shouldn't rubb or neede fenders rolled or need a camber kit...just a good alignment...unfortunatly the guy i bought my 19" rays off of threw 40 series tires on the front and back....so im runnin 245/40/19 in the front and 275/40/19 in the rear and no issues even with the car loaded up! if you do
the spring mount mod you might have some issues!

Im not planning on the springmount mod unless i really am unhappy with the way it sits...

Im doing the spring install within the next 2 weeks and i need to decide if im rolling the fenders during the install or not... If a few people say that i dont have to, then i will take the chance and not roll them....


and if i have to down the road, ill have to either find a shop, or use the rubber mallet+hair dryer(or heat gun) trick to stop it where it is rubbing.

Hold up Nightm4re... I have the exactly same questions you have since I just got those Axis Shines as well.

Mine is 245/35/19 F and 275/35/19 R. The rear ones look flush with the fender and only 2 fingers gap in between. I am thinking drop it on either g s-tech or z h-tech and most likely will go for the later one.

I did my homeworks and found out we do need camber kits for the rear ones unless you don't mind changing tires more often...

The front ones are optional. If you want to save up some $$$, you might skip the front camber kits.

As for the fenders... Bad news bro... Most likely we need to roll them(or some people just cut them). You prolly want to bring your g to the garage and ask somebody knows what he is doing. Otherwise you definitely need a heat gun or hair dryer.

Here is the thread answers our questions. Good luck on your drop and let me know how it goes coz I am going to do it pretty soon too.

Lol it's cool. I've been trying to do research and i can't really get any solid answers from people. My springs will be on within 2 weeks o I'll let you know how they fit. I will probably roll my fenders while I'm doing everything else.

I won't get a camber kit at first. I'll get an alignment and see how close to spec they can get me. If it's not good enough then I'll get the camber kit for Christmas lol.
Good choice on the rims. Out of everything I've done to my car, these rims get the most attention.

I agree with your plan. Don't get the camber kits first see how it goes. But be aware, your final call should be based off of 1 month after you install the springs. The springs need around 1 month to settle. Good luck on that and keep me posted.

And yeah, my rims got a lot attentions too. A lot of people have asked me about the rims. Maybe we should have an Axis Shine group here. lol.

Will springs settle even if they are used? I am taking them off my friends car and putting them rigt onto mine, so would they already be settled or would I have to wait and let them settle on my car also?
