Picking up a 370Z sport 6MT next month. I already have some new HKS Hypermax IV GT coil-overs that come from factory with a minimal 3/4" drop. Where I live here in N AZ the roads can have some pot holes and speed bumps and I also live in a house with a driveway that has a slightly steep incline so I am not looking for a big drop.

Been doing a lot of research on new wheels/tires and going to go with 19's at 9.5/+25 - 10.5/+12. I was thinking of just going with the Nismo spec tires (245/40, 285/35) but after seeing those pics above maybe the 265/305's might look better with the minimal drop. Don't want the sticking out poke look but I do like the more meaty look.

Opinions?

The Nismo Spec is actually slightly taller in comparison to the 265/305 set up. I run HKS IV and it looks and runs well.

Yep untouched... IMHO it needs another .5in lower to dial it in. But it works.

In my opinion that is a perfect drop.

So just to be clear your running the 265/305 combo?

Got any pics from the back or front looking down the side?
