Gais...

It's my turn, and I need help... for my 2nd gen sedan.

I'm trying to base my calculations off these results (but they just seem very unbelievable)
https://g35driver.com/forums/media-s...ew-wheels.html

He's running a -4 in the rear, and a -2 in the front (w/ the spacer).

My specs on the wheels I want are:
Front: 20x8.5 ET15
Rear: 20x10 ET20

I'll need adapters to convert to a 120 bolt pattern, and adapters come in 15mm... so that'll put me at

0 in the front, and +5 in the rear.

According to kalvinmaui specs and pics, that should work, and I might even run a bigger adapter for the front for more poke.

I'm trying to get the rims to poke, and have the rear camber at no more than -5 degrees.

Some more info... and encouragement is welcome.

PS... I won't be pulling the fenders, but I am trying to set break boundaries with what's been done on stock fenders.

I'm not an expert on 2nd gen Sedan fitment, but I believe to run that setup you are going to need to pull your fenders. What tire sizes are you considering? Heyitsalex has a 10.5 +24 out back on a 245 IIRC and was rubbing like crazy.

Edit: I looked up Alex's setup. He is running:

19x9.5 +17 225/40R19 FRONT
19x10.5 +24 245/40R19 REAR (-3.4 camber)

Your proposed setup is 4mm more aggresive in the front and 13mm more agressive in the rear. The fronts you could pull off, the rears will be an issue without a pull.

I plan to run w/e tires I need to run to accommodate those offsets, even if it means going 225/30... I'm doing this w/ out pulling fenders, it's a lease... lol

Edit: And by looking at Kalvin's rear at -4 and thick rubber.., you don't think i'll be able to pull off a +5 w/ some skinny rubbers?

^A 225 on a 10.5, that's donpisto status...LOL

If you ran a 225 with more camber than Alex you could probably clear the rear. Do you have rear camber arms that will allow you to run ~5 degrees of negative camber?

What suspension are you on? If you aren't slammed its not gonna look right IMO.

I'm on H&R springs, but I'll probably get coilovers if I really need to... planned on bags in the future.

I'm def getting the camber kit, and coilovers after I pick up the wheels, but I don't think I'll be pulling the fenders, I'd rather camber the wheels out more than pull the fenders.

Rim size is a 10 in the rear and 8.5 in the front.

Nice video but not nearly enough flushness for a HellaFlush event.
Platinum VIP cars were looking good though. Most VQ's were holdin it down well too.

i would suggest getting the coils first, getting used to driving low and then ordering the wheels (if you haven't already) that way once you order the wheels you won't need spacers

i see it happen a lot and imo its a waste of money, so just thought i'd pass the advice on
