Hopefully there won't be too much poke lol. I'll see what happens and keep you updated. Everyone told me to go 25's on the rear with stock 19 inch sport Rays / swift spring drop.
Well...I also read what everyone was saying about running 25s on the rear too, but I'm anal so I decided to see for myself before deciding what to get.
My rear camber went from -1.89 degrees when I went in to -1.69 degrees after the alignment. I had set the SPL arms to as close to the same length as the stock arms when they went on.
I bought one pair of H&R 20s knowing that's what I'd be putting on the front. I test fitted one of the 20s on the left rear Friday to see if I liked it or not. I decided I could not go with 25s.

I really value the opinions of others on here, but when it's my car, my money and I've got to live with it, I sometimes just have to do it my way.
I installed the Swifts, camber arms, toe bolts first. Then I did an alignment and measured to figure out what spacers to get. Measuring wasn't conclusive so I bought a pair of 20s to do a real world test. I went and ordered a 2nd set of H&R 20mm spacers. All four 20s will probably go on next weekend.

I love how the 20s look on the front of your Z. I was concerned whether 20s would be enough on the front. I was thinking you could almost run 25s. Now I figure the 20s are good to go. I was concerned about rubbing with the 25s.
