continuing the thread jackage
the drop is about 1.2 inches which was all i wanted. right now there is ab a 1and a half finger gap in the back. I used the S-techs for the 350z, the H-techs don't drop as much and had a much lower spring rate i the rear which i didn't want. the same for the s-techs for the G, softer than stock
. I figured i'd do everything at once because the installation was such a good deal so I bought some tokico shocks (again the 350z ones) and some stillen sways and was done in like an hour and a half at the same place i got the wheels. i don't trust anybody taking off/cleaning/servicing my car anymore now that i have these wheels and they shaved the fenders for free -
I did post some pics over on socal g35 in the coupe photos and in g35 under volk owners only thread - you can see more of the offset and lippage...but i'll do it here if there's interest..
seriously though, i was looking for a couple months for some used Gt-cs in the right offsets, almost bought some, then i saw these in stock at status. since i'm into the whole instant gratification thing, and i haven't seen too many of these on G's i decided to splurge and buy them brand new. what made the whole thing more appeaaling is the tire deal and installation that rick@status threw in. the offsets are +17 front +18 rear, and the rear did have to get shaved once it was lowered by the tein s-techs (350z). so he gave me fronts 255/35/19 and 275/35/19 toyo t1-rs mounted for $900. the rims themselves were 2550 with the carbon center caps. so total out the door 3450...not bad considering they'll go for 2500 used and nobody has these in stock...good luck with the purchase - also, check my350z.com for wheels cause there's alot of turnaround over there on really nice shit...
