The SPC camber arm kit for the G35 came with toe bolts which were installed along with the arms prior to alignment. I went next door to the place I got my tires from for the alignment and can only assume it was run by idiots.
Anyways, how do you guys feel about mixing tires? I don't plan on tracking my car, just need them for street use.

the only other reason I'd suggest running a 35 is the inner sidewall. As you lower the car or ad negative camber there is very little sidewall between the wheel and the pavement. How little depends on the tire manufacturer. Talking from experience, I've torn or sliced the inner sidewall on a 30 series twice already. I decided with the new wheels I'm going back to 35's.

Everyone seems to want to keep the tires the same height as stock. How come people are choosing 245/35/19s for the front? 255/35/19s are a closer match.

That's strange as 245/35/19 is recommended for 8.0 to 9.5. I think the site should read 8.5-10.0 inches for 255/35/19...
