Aggressive Wheels & Stretched Tires: Post 'Em Up! [[Some NSFW]]
I just cant go that far man, lol
Flat roll, few mm pull no biggie, but fenders turning out like that is just pointless to me. Its all about keepin the sexy body lines, and bringing out the most you can and making the best fit possible. But everyone got their own point of view.

I wasn't saying you needed to pull your fenders that much to run your wheels. Look at my Sedan. I'm running a flush setup and my body lines are still, just slightly pulled (5mm) fenders. You could even do a 10mm+ pull on a Sedan and still keep the OEM body lines.
thanks, yea that last picture i posted with me in the car, that's the final ride height right there, tucking almost half the tire and i'm happy with that, not going any lower.
and yes that is hurricane tape i'm using temporarily until i get the fenders touched up where they pulled them. that whole section is welded and primered on the outside because the fender cracked about a quarter inch when they were pulling it, oh btw I forgot to post the actual fender work they done for me...
basically they cut the inner fender liner and welded it back on further up, sealed it back up and pulled the outer fenders with ease now that it wasn't reinforced anymore.. had to be very careful when doing alignment, had to set it in such a way that even at full compression no part of the tire or even wheel would make contact with the fender otherwise it would collapse since it isn't reinforced with the inner fender anymore.... i told the shop to take pics during the welding process, but they forgot too, all i got is pics of the aftermath after sealing..
so basically just wanna give a heads up to the guys who have cut their fenders and want to pull them but are having a hard time, this is the way to do it... i had tried pulling all types of ways before the weld cutting but most i could get is 3mm's, so i went through almost 2 months of looking for a shop that was willing to do something about it
and in response to keeping sexy body lines, i do agree oem body lines are good to keep, and i originally NEVER wanted to pull my fenders, but with the specs in the rear i had no choice since they were overboard... now that i have done it, i actually fckin love it, it's a clean looking pull and makes it look more aggressive, just a clean little pull, can see it in the following pic it looks great imo

I just posted it cause on a Gsite 90% of the cars in this thread arent even Gs and other 10% are just coupes.
Some 2nd gen love wont hurt.
And obviously its very close to perfect, and everybody wants Moar of it for a reason.
Few pages ago 300zx, to me was tuckin and almost no aggressiveness. Doesnt belong here, but still slides...
I was responding to konxeptionz's post, saying I had noticed the duct tape too.

and I agree konxeptionz's sometimes u gotta stand out, and u def doing it. Cant say nothing bad about the car. Those fenders are only 0.01 % of the car to me. lol Sometimes wheels alone are worth it. Those wheels are sex
I agree more than 50% of that cars posted in here now don't belong but that would just be never ending if we had to point em all out hahaha. It would have a nice setup if indeed it was lower. As for the front, meh. i can never accept white painted hl's it's just a big no no, like altezza tails haha
