If I'm correct, those are Bridgestone RE-11's

Yup, Bridgestone RE-11's. 265/35 in the front and 305/30 in the back.

Sizes i ment lol, thanks alot! Time to update your sig :]

Looking good! We used to have a Black 350Z on the Time Attack TE37s as well.. great combination. A little tire shine (good stuff, not the crap that gets all over your paint) does wonders for pictures

Let us know what you think of the RE-11's. I haven't seen too many quality reviews of them on the larger cars.

Lol, yeah, I know. I took these pics literally an hour after I picked the car up from the shop... didn't have time to detail or really prepare for a proper photoshoot, as the sun was going down soon. Just excited and wanted to get pics up ASAP.

SAllen0400 · 07-21-2009, 03:44 PM

Just got the results of my alignment today. Seems the front left is a bit off. Could that be from the install of the Eibach's? I know hardly anything about camber aside from what it is. Any suggestions? Is this off enough to be highly detrimental? The tech said that the tire would wear quicker... just not sure how big a deal this is. Any help?

I know there are camber kits out there, just not sure how much I'd need one. Bascially, my question is... is this "meh, not too big a deal" or is it "Wow, you need to fix that NOW".

DannyGT · 07-21-2009, 03:55 PM

Not a big deal but you'll get better feedback and handling by going at least 1.9-2.1 in the front.

I basically took the dynamics of the OEM specs and told them to go more aggressive. I think like all the pre-set coilovers, the springs that are being developed for the car are being left tad lower in the rear than it should be...

Also, my shop told me I was max positive in either the front or rear (sorry cant remember which now) and that if I wanted less camber I would have to go with adjustables...so really...being anywhere in the 1.9-2.2 all around really suited me well and I didnt have to spend more money. I'll never go more positive than that. If anything I would probably go more aggressive for track setups.

Sharif@Forged · 07-21-2009, 06:45 PM

Very nice! I'd love to see some modeling pics of your car. The fat rubber really gives the 370z a meaner look.

So long did it take to get the blue stickers off?

i found a set of real time attacks but the rears are +22 and not +12, but i want the concave! just not sure if its worth the $$ to run spacers in the rear. ive stored money for wheels, im just so picky! thanks for making my choice harder!!

PM sent. The +22 will require at least a 10mm spacer, and would lake some of the concavity.

I wan't more pictures!

ilive2win · 08-01-2009, 11:47 PM

TE-37's look awesome

SAllen0400 · 08-02-2009, 06:44 PM

Im getting the door handles painted to match the body color next week. I'll do a proper photoshoot and post more pics after that gets done. Now that I've had these mods done for a couple weeks, I've been able to see the car in many different settings and angles. I have a ton of ideas for some good pics.
