few pics fo new setup and need fitment advice

figured id post a few pics of my new look. front lip is coming in today so its not in in the pics. a friend took the pics for me on last minute notice for fun.

Also I was wondering how people get 19x12 to fit properly? Seems I have to do massive stretch and crazy camber to get these to fit properly. I was told theyre 19x12 +6 offset but now im not sure if thats correct. especially because there is more than 7" of dish.. I dont think a positive offset 12 would have that.

Setup is ionic cf lip kit, tein basics, rotora BBK, and garson deep racing
19x10+4 w/ 235/35 & 19x12+6 w/255/35, spc rear camber arms and toe bolts, ichiba front A-arms. running stock camber in front w/ ~ -3 camber rear. fronts fit nice, rear pokes massively. please let me know what I can do to adjust it to fit properly since I want to do less stretch also(285/30). maybe raise it up? I also ordered fender flares just in case I need to go that route. also do you think those wheels specs are indeed correct?

thanks and let me know what you think.






before the pull/drop

i agree i dont like the wrinkled fenders. I plan to try and get them bodyworked but thats the only way I got them to fit for now. opinions are good. plain hating is bad so no i dont mind rational opinion.

well lower the back about 2 inches more and -2 more degrees. You will never get a 285/30 tire to fit but that my 2 cents. Good luck

There is no way those are 19x12 +6 I have 19x12 +22 I ran 285s with -2.5 deg camber and they fit nicely. Now due to traction issues I went with a 305 rear tire and a -1 deg camber and they still don't stick out anywhere near as far as yours do. I doubt those will fit the problem with 12" wider rears is they are close to rubbing on the inner suspention components when going with lots of negative camber. Your wheels look about -20 offset!!!


Here is how mine looks with a 305mm tire and -1deg camber, it looks goofy but I did the camber for traction purposes so I have tires that are 50mm wider than yours and +16mm more offset than you have but your wheels seem to stick out at least an inch more than mine. I would say your only hope would be fender flares or if the rear "disk" is high and you have brake clearence get the rear disk machined down as much as possible it would be an easy job for a machine shop and likely not very expensive. What kind of fender flares do you have?

This year i might go with more negative camber and a little lower so please no comments about my set up looking goofy!

i bought a pair of jun auto 30mm flares from rhdjapan.com so hopefully theyll come in soon. If they r 13" wide then would this be the most agressive setup on stock body g so far? =P

btw your setup looks sick sylvan. not goofy at all to me.

If you run flares you wouldn't be stock body there is a black G35 with J lines that are wide but he has flares and i am not sure if he was 12" or 13" I corrected it I just went out and checked my rears are 12" +22 offset, sorry about the misinformation go measure yours from lip to lip they should measure 1" wider so a 12" wheel from lip to lip will be 13" and a 13" rim would measure 14". I doubt yours are 13" a 255mm tire likely wouldn't even hold air on a 13" wide rim

Thank you for the compliment I might go with a small flare so i can keep the -1 camber and it won't look weird but if I don't go with a flare I will dial it to a -1.5 or -1.75" camber just for vanity sake!!

ya true if i run flares it wont be stock body but for now it is
ya thoese flares that guy had, "jdmjames" i think. are the ones i bought also. but only the rears for me and im gonna buy the seibon 10mm wider front fenders. I will try and measure them when i have a chance. im at work right now. if they arent 13 wide theyre definitely in negative offsets though i think. my fitment is nowhere near is close to flush as yours. I think with the flares ill be able to run less camber and use 285's I hope.

jdmjames was/is running 18x9.5 0 offset and 18x12 0 offset it looks like he needs every bit of the 30mm flares maybe yours are +6 but I would think they are in the negatives.
