These are stillen sways

I went with what Ryan @ Forged suggested....he created this devil of a set of wheels & rims with me simply agreeing to it. Seems DannyGT had 285's on the front at one point and he had to scale down to 265. So, I'm guessing you can go even bigger if you're willing to try it. I can say this....it sticks like glue!

Fronts are rubbing....rears seem to be perfect!

ohh rubbing, that doesnt sound good. is it severe rubbing or just minimal when you take corners hard? i heard you should be able to get 305 width tire on the 370z without a sweat, but i guess its mostly because your lowered right? hope that fixes it for you!

So far so good.....just working on stopping the rubbing thats happening due to the plastic pins on the inside of the fender near the top. I'm going for a corner balancing and alignment this Friday. DannyGT had the same issue and those two things helped him. Hopefully it'll do the same for me!

love them, yeah night and day

So far, none at all. Outside of adding the coilovers that was all. Forged put them all together for me down in GA. and they shipped 'em to Altered Atmosphere in MD. I wasnt there when they switched out the stocks but from what I understand it was just a quick switch.

Hey, looks like you are talking with Ryan over in the wheels/tire thread. I believe they are lighter but you may want to ask Ryan in the thread. I actually sent him a pm so if he doesn't answer there I'll let you know via PM.

Bingo.

RWD as a general rule of thumb handles better than awd because you are using all of the grip in the front tires to steer, not to steer and drive the car. AWD is nice, loads of traction there, but RWD handles better.

Cheer up. I heard the new unit is 8oz lighter then the old one coz they use less oil on it.:p

Yep. I hope Nissan decides to delete the SLUs (two screws and a BCM reflash), not replace them.

If it does and the dealer replaces the lock on my '09 with a newer revision, I think I would still re-install my bypass harness after they were done. I don't know that I would trust the thing not to...

Thanks everyone for your input.. just seems the A/S might endup being a better tire for my erratic driving :rofl2: order placed! unfortunately Costco doesnt have them in stock so seems the Z...

I'm going with the roof option. Will post pics. (;

Or just install it in your garage or have it shipped to a friend that has a garage with appropriate tools and install it their. Then no reason for commute. But if you go with the roof option you...

There is no reason to say you do not need to be just as careful with the SS and a lowered car. Honestly I cant see the CF being any less durable. If you scrape either one of the can options, you have...

It was great talking to you yesterday! You shouldn't be to bad with the swift lowering springs, its a fairly mild drop. I have heard both side by side and FPenvy explained it very well. The CF is...

go CF. the sound in my opinion is much better. that also falls on you as well. SS is deeper and CF is more exotic. also the CF looks amazing as well no matter what color Z you have.

Check out Kenchan's albums. He's got a silver with some CF accents, and the CF looks great with that color!

Today I washed and wax my car to prep for the snow storm >-> Bad picture but it's late at night with iphone flash lol http://i743.photobucket.com/albums/xx77/metalsplinter2/image.jpeg

I am working on getting this info for you guys. Give me a day or two and I will update this thread! I will make sure we don't forget to get your invoice ASAP! :tup:

I was joking... Hoped to make that clear. Haha. 285 is obviously not puny, but yeah 265/285 is a great setup from everything ive researched, and yes it will fill the gap better. Personal preference...

64353 Took a few shots earlier to try and show the fitment a little more

64233 They fit. 265/35/19 and 305/30/19 lowered on my swifts 20/25mm z1 spacers. No rubbing
