looking mean shane.

 

shane what coils are you on i wanna lower my rear another inch so it sits even my b'cs dont lower the rear that much might have to take one of the spindels off.

 

becareful lowering ur car that much by removing collars...if your coilovers dont go that low...dont push em...you run the risk of blowing them out...if you start bottoming the damper out...it will break...and you are stuck with having to have ur coilovers rebuilt

i would recommend you try JIC FLT-ARs...you can slam the holy christ out of those things...its what i run on my track S13...when i had my previous FLT-A2s...i literally had about a 1/4 inch space between my wheel lip and rear fenders...and i could STILL go lower (and this was on 17x8.5s +25s back in my cheap *** rota days like 4 years ago *shudders*)



thats sitting on 18x9.5 +15s with 225/40/R18 rear and 215/40/R18 front...i have my height set for purpose track driving...but i could literally tuck the wheels UNDER the fenders with my FLT-ARs

 

and this is sitting on 17x9 +0 hotwheels sixty eights with 225/45/R17s rear and 215/40/R17s front...

 

eh one more...my SSR MS1 18x10 +11s in the rear on 225/40/R18s

 

yeah being on a budget its hard to just say ok let me get some flt-ar i got my bc's for 700. the set up i wanna go with is 19x10+20 all around ill wait and see how it looks with the way my rear is lowered now.

 

honestly...save your money for GOOD parts...we have the same problems in the 240 community as well...trust me...its worth it to wait 3-6 months LONGER to buy QUALITY parts than to settle for the cheaper brand because you only have that much cash in your pocket

and to get ur wheels flush...ur gonna need a WAY lower offset than +20 on a Gs fenders...from what ive seen on FM chassis cars...anything thats 18x10 or 19x10 with a +10 or lower offset looks good (buddy of mine runs 18x10 -2 SSR SP1s on his Z...looks SUPER flush...and all he did to fit em was to roll his fenders...no pull required)

+20 is way to high if youre going for just looks...if youre running a track wheel on 19x10 +20 youll be fine...but the key rule to running ur wheels flush and making them look good...IF THEY DONT RUB THEY ARENT THE RIGHT SIZE!!!

fit the car to the wheels...not the wheels to the car

 

yeah lower offsets for a coupe i drive a sedan 19x10 +20 is pretty aggressive for a sedan. i havent seen another sedan with a 10 upfront, bc's arent cheap there good in quality. i totally understand what you mean i always wanted a 240 im on zilvia also(lurker status). i would go 19x10+15 all around but we'll see.

 

He's got a sedan... 18x10 +20 all around is pushing the limits on the sedan.

thanks for backing me up grant.

 

for sure my slammed G brotha... hopefully i'll get my exhaust fixed soon and slam my car again.

yeah, i might need you to check out my rear coilovers. the rear right side makes a loud thumping noise everytime i go over an un even part in the road is that normal?

btw. i might lower my front another half an inch

 

nice pics lenn!
