Nah I'm hoping to sell them before the build is done to help fund part of it, but I know they're not going to go fast so it's all good. They could come off the car today if I got a good price for them, I've already located a backup set of nismo 19s as a temporary fix until the Equips are done.

Oh yeah, them lol...

Engine build, then supercharger and header install on engine, then swap and making sure everything works / tuning, THEN BBK install, go back to factory'ish alignment specs, do body work and measure out what specs to build the Equips to.

It won' be happenin soon lol. But I'm going to buy a buddy's set of Nismo 19s and rock them for rolling around the garage and be able to dial back the camber and such once the car is back up and running with the new motor. I can't get the alignment done with the KFs unless I raise it quite a bit, it wouldn't be able to move and I'm pretty sure the rears won't clear the BBK so they gots to go.

Yup. I'd originally planned on going widebody and rocking some 7" lips but I think it's time to kill that dream lol. Most likely going to stay in the 4-6" lip range. Going to try for a 11.5/12 rear and 10/10.5 front, but all depends on what looks like it'll fit the best.

Nice, yeah 7 is to big for an 18 inch face.. 4-6 range will look better. . Bigger always isn't better..

If you do 6" lips on the equips you'll have Toretto fitment and he has wide body rear fenders--- you'll be back in the fitment game. Faces are flat so you won't get as much lip as the kf's allow

Faces are flat AND they've got the BBK friendly disc all around, so I'm already starting way behind the curve. I'm considering buying a pair of each 4, 5, and 6" lips and starting with the 4/5 and moving up to 6/5 after some body work down the road.

Gonna be at least a month or two before they're assembled. I'll be rolling on some Nismo 19s for a while (I hope, cuz that would mean the KFs have a new home) until then.

Hey OBsessed,

Do you know your fender to ground measurements? I've got the same tire sizes and almost the same width 19x10 / 19x11 and curious at a good starting point to shoot for when adjusting my coils.

In your KF ad, it also looks like you have room to adjust the camber more positively, or are the pics deceiving? Sometimes the tires are so black you can't see how close they are in pictures.

thanks
