How low can we go?
As I await the completion of my custom 20's from dpe engineering, I am going to go ahead and slap the JICs on..
My previous car (a nissan maxima) was able to go pretty damn low on it's JICs to the point of tucking rim in rear on 19s and still being able to drive around town. The front was a different story because of turbo piping and big sideskirts/front bumper.
Back on track... my coupe doesn't have a body kit yet, waiting for greddy patiently, and I want to know if there are a lot of lowering issues with this car. I am a big fan of putting the tires inside the fender wells, especially with a suspension setup like JICs that doesn't lose travel upon extreme lowering.
Sorry for the long drawn out explination of my question, just trying to give all the facts up front and go from there. I'd like to know that I can tuck tire on stock 18's with the JICs before I do it and drive around and find out I rub everywhere..
Thanks for any insight.. i can't wait for my wheels to get done.

Nothing huh..
I did a search for JICs and only came up with one thread about them.. maybe I should try www.my350z.com and talk to the Z guys about it?
