Thank you for the advice.
Also you have to have gotten a sheet that explains the specks of each position of that piece i was talking about. if you did your alignment and thats how the car looks. ask the alignment guy what the problem is and look at the sheet they give you after a balance. they should know what and why it looks that way.

I also used this tool http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp to see what it came up with..wasn't too informative but it told me that when going 60 mph, I'd be actually going 65.9 due to the rims..does that sound right?

would it look ridiculous if I rolled my fenders while still on stock 17s? my buddy will be passing through to do another job and he said he would do it for free. I figured why not? If i need them done another time he wont be around and I'm cheap and don't want to pay if i don't have to lol

The rear is a little on the aggressive side to fit without a hint of negative camber. You're going to need to roll the rear fenders for sure.

as for the speedo issue, that is based on tired size. If you run the wrong tires the speed sensors trip out becuase the wheel has less circumfrance to make a full circle.

Not at all, when fenders are rolled properly they are not noticeable what so ever.

You can't even tell when somebody's fenders are rolled unless you actually look up under there but even then it doesn't look bad, looks pretty normal actually

Thanks, just to confirm front= fit fine and rear = roll fenders + a hint of camber? Not much more than stock ?I plan on going sprigs and camber kits, coilovers are a little out of my budget atm. I'd like to be dropped but not slammed

Yea degree or two and a totally flat roll and you should clear. As long as you don't try and run 285s.

Checked the position for positive and negative camber positions, and both are in the position for 0 (zero) angle.

Went to the dealer and spoke with their guy that does alignments.
He had no idea what could cause it. Since I am the only car in town that is dealing with such offsets. He said it was new one for him. Told me to look into possible adjustable arms from nissan 240. Maybe they are interchangeable with G's. Maybe Ichiba sent me two different spacers instead of 25mm's?

anyone else have encountered this issue. I know with all of the aggressive set ups out there, i can't be the only odd ball with this problem.

I'm still pretty new to the tire thing. but after tons of research i've finally figured out what spec wheels i want. now I'm trying to figure out tires.

the wheels are varrs es 1.1.2
F: 19x114.3 9.5 +12
R: 19x114.3 11 +15

I'm going to be lowered on stance coils with SPC camber kit and end links, so I should be able to get into OE specs.

the rear fender will be completely rolled.

I'm wanting a LITTLE tire tuck (i still want to drive my car hard) and a LITTLE tire stretch, just enough for the outer lip of the wheel to pop out (instead of flush with the tire, if that makes sense).

Originally i was going to go 245/35 and 275/35 but this seems to result in the wheel being flush with the tire.

I don't want to sacrifice too much performance for the poke, so I'm trying to figure out what route to go.

I'm thinking 235/35 and 265/30? Again, I'm pretty new to this, so go easy on me.

These are with hankook v12s on a 04 Coupe.

Thanks guys

Guys an idiot, never listen to advice from somebody in service.

240 parts do not fit our cars, so don't try that.

Could check the spacer sizes, could be right there.

Get your alignment print out and take a picture of it for me, from the factory your alignment shouldn't even be zero.

Nope as long as you don't try and go over board with the tires. 245/40 is all you need!

blaine, you ran nankang 225/40s on your 10" ccw, would there be any problem with putting a 225/35/20 on a 10" since they run small?

edit: nevermind about you running nankangs on your ccw's - your s:n feature didn't specify that. anyways, would there be a problem?
