my point is that you don't need to stay at stock height with a cup kit

why would you want to roll around 4x4 status? you have a sports car

My previous z was lowered 3/4 of an inch on kw's with 20" wheels and it sat perfect. A car doesn't have to sit super low to make it a sports car, too low is detrimental to the handling of the car.

Here's a pic of the previous Z.

Just get 19's. 20's look funky on a 370z to me. That's just me though.

I'm not sure if I'll end up with 19's or 20's but I don't think 20's look funky at all on the z. I think they fill the huge fender well better.

Here's what I got from one calculator. Going from a 265 on a 9.5 +40 to a 285 on a 10" +40 would bring the tire 6.4mm closer to the suspension.

I'm curious, what is it that make those look funky?

Can't tell where the tire ends and the rim begins.

That's because they're both black.
