Yep- I had to do the same thing on my old phantoms. otherwise, the lip and tire blend together.

Don't have any pictures of them on the Z yet, waiting to acquire some tires for it.

And Zerafian I appreciate the input and I actually agree with you. Once I have it all on if I need a pinstripe on there it should be no problem doing that.

be sure not to paint it on, it will chip super fast and when unmounting a tire the shop would have to be SUPER careful, Id go to a sign shop and get some cut vinyl and 4 replacements.

I had replacement strips when I got new tires mounted because the shop would mangle the viynl

Vinyl strips is actually a great idea.

I should have some tires for them soon and I'll post up pictures to get further opinions.

Yeah- I used vinyl also. Be prepared for it to be mangled any time you get the tires dismounted.

Right now they sit just a little bit outside of flush with the fender. I'm waiting on suspension parts and will soon be dropping the car which will draw the wheels inward... I do not yet know if I will need spacers then or if it will look aggressive enough, we'll see.

Default GTS wheels

Here are a couple shots taken today after receiving my Kics lugnuts...finally put the wheels on. DON'T WORRY....KW V3s are on the way to the rescue for the monster truck 370z :P and center caps.

Big thanks to Mark at RavSpec who I bought the wheels from. Shipping was super quick and awesome service.

Thanks to b2autodesigns.com for the fast/friendly service with the Kics R26 neo-chrome lugnuts; they look awesome.

Wheel Specs (no spacers)
19 x 9.5 +30
19 x 10.5 +18

Tires are Michelin Pilot Super Sports 255/35/19 and 295/35/19

Car looks great!

Haha... I ordered the KW V3's for mine too (going on today). Otherwise we both could've held a monster truck car crushing party, lol.
