Hey guys,

Just some thoughts I wanted to bounce off you guys.

I intend on having the lip to guard fitment airred out (I am on air atm) however, I dislike how when you air up ill be running mexipoke. What have some of you done to correct this issue? Camber arms? If so, how much did it make the camber more positive.

Rationale: Here in Australia, not aloud to run poke or ride your car low. Already experienced the static life with my old car and got fined 10 times over and black listed. Don't wanna go through that again. Haha. So with that being said, I don't want to stick out too much with mexipoke when Im driving at a legal height.

Stock fenders+rolled? Just get wheels that don't poke out too much.

This will work fine aired up, and look nice aired down.

19x10 +0
19x11 +0

Change width and offset accordingly.

Question about offsets..

06 G35 Coupe 6MT (sport suspension), sitting stock, Looking at 20" 8.5 wide in front and 10" in the back. What offsets am I looking at to stay looking nice?

You can put a 245 or 255 tire up front. And rock up to a 35mm spacer up front to bring final front setup to 18x9 -5.

You can put a 245 or 255 in the rear and rock up to a 25 or 30mm spacer assuming your rear fenders are not rolled. Final rear setup after spacer should be 18x9 +5 or 18x9 +0.

I say roll your rear fenders, since that's all you need. Should cost less than $60.

If I get my fenders rolled what limit will that put me at? And where should I look to get them rolled at?

You could probably put on a 45mm spacer in the back if you roll fenders. Making it 18x9 -15.

Don't know where you're located, so I can't tell you where to roll fenders. Ask locally.

I got one for you oh wise one.^
Still on my 19" rays. This'll be my first drop on coils. 20/25mm spacers on as well. Is it even possible to get sortamaybekindaflush without a fender roll?
Reason I ask is I wouldn't trust it to any wackazz shop in OK where'd I'd be, nor would I trust my wackazz self to do it either.

Just put 25mm all around. Front should be fine, rear you may need to get a skinnier tire to avoid hitting the fender lip.
