hahaha yes! we should be friends

and your fitment makes me happy ... i really wanna run 17x10 out back on low-offset Work wheels, but wasnt sure if i could do it and run a meaty tire ... stretch is FTL, so your car has motivated me!

Looks like your typical Z32 brakes, just shaved down the "Nissan" on it and repainted.

And your kidding right?!?! There's a Maximum Rubber Wheel fitment thread, all about running as much meaty tires you can stuff and still have badass fitment.

SuicidnS13 · 02-06-2010, 07:14 PM

Yup, front pics are a few posts up. Engine isn't in car yet so no action shots. Either way the car is not a drift car. The brakes are z32 calipers with 350z brembo track rotors in the front.

sLOW14 · 02-06-2010, 07:26 PM

aight thanks

Really like the tire fitment. And how is it that VS-KF's always appear (no matter what size) to have massive lips?

cuz who realistically wants to spend "custom wheel" money on 17x7+45 :P

icedsole · 02-07-2010, 01:13 AM

why do people that want to run maximum tire look for "low offset" "dished wheels" ?

if YALL want maximum tire get some wheels that actually fit so you dont have to
butt fuck your fenders.

mad-ass · 02-07-2010, 01:36 AM

Here's why.

some prefer Form over Function, some want Function over Form

but when you do this...

Function + Form = Perfection.

/end of this convo.

I want both traction and look good doing it?!?! Besides, the pulled fender look makes the rear look alot more aggressive.

Your post should be quoted on - EPICFAIL.com

LMFAO at this clown. Function and Form has nothing to do with your opinion. By going lower offset and having rubber to match you are effectively widening your stance thus giving you increased stability in all situations. Plus I can actually afford to take my car to the body shops and have it done right. Actually my car is about to get dropped of back to the body shop for them to match the flairs and repaint my quarter panels. Yup I did all that butt-fucking to my freshly painted car which has yet to even be driven on a street.

lol

icedsole · 02-07-2010, 10:37 AM

nah i think yall misinterpreted my post.

what i was saying is wouldnt it be easier to run a higher off set wheel with a bigger
tire, opposed to having a big negative wheels that would stick out more?

i got no issue with big tires. i didnt want to cause a furry of anger here sheesh.

Got ya...

There is an old saying in the construction world, the harder more complicated way is usually the correct way to do things. Easier ways are usually short cuts which lead to failure in the end....

Sorry I got all high and mighty with you.... I am still right, how ever...

icedsole · 02-07-2010, 11:26 AM

^ i know your right, im not some tard tryin to say stretched tires or some bs
is better blah blah

its actually really cool when you see a descent sized wheels with a big tire
super tucked under the fender.

What you just described is a perfect example of Function and Form, at least that's the way I look at it. Good fitment with good width of tires, functional and got the right form. Am I wrong here?

Don't be calling people out so easily there please.

Wasnt calling you out bro, it was quoted for the other guy who said we should stretch or run weak offsets to fit wheels or tires. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
