^ the G37 coupes are similar specs to a sedan iirc... they don't really have the fenders they use to.

You're looking at a lot of work to get them on there.

Crap, kinda what I figured. I mean. I have a general idea, they do have a lil more room than the sedans. Fronts have plenty, just the rears. To be honest, if a 37 were to do a pull and camber maybe 5, 6 degrees im sure the rears would fit. I would LOVE to see a 37 step up and do something crazy. I don't think anyone has even pushed the envelope yet on something challenging.

Yea, most of the low 37 guys are on stock suspension arms and not pulling much in terms of aggressive camber.

But it did take a little while for the first gen cars to get aggressive.

True, it did. Especially the sedans.

Well, benefit is the tires. What's 2C running? 245/35 on a 10" and it's a General? 235/35 on 11.5 gives quite a bit of tire room to work with. I'm gonna see if pare Pat wants to try out the wheels for an idea.

Blain, question for ya. When you were on 18's, what was your fender to ground measurement in front? How often were you scraping the exhaust or sway bar? I'm wondering if 18's will be too low for me. I think 19's would be ideal but I wanna be on 18's just so I can be super dumped. And if I have my front bumper, throw it on at shows and literally have it no more than 2 fingers off the ground. I actually might be testing some Schwert SC2's in an 18/19 setup (yes this time the 18 is the front, not the rear since both are reverse lip). Would be 18x10+0 and 19x10.5 -5.

I know you asked Blain, but might as well give my experience as well, lol.

I was 23 3/4" fender to ground up front on 18x10 +15 with a 225/40/18 and -1.5 camber.

Scraped my front sway and subframe on EVERYTHING. I just raised it up 1/4" and put the 215/45/18's back on so it clears by the hair on my chin now.
