Aggressive fitment IS-F pics!

#302
i wish i took pics, i just sold the wheels off my 350z and shipped them off last week but i mounted them on just to see how it looked since i had the wheels off the car already and was bored. and it cleared with no problem and had a bit more room to go so im thinking with a 275/30 (not 35) it should clear.
this is the set up i had on my Z and this is waht the Z has now. i didn't even think of taking pics because i was such in a hurry to ship off the wheels.
the set i tried on the isf

It shouldn't fit at all if you've seen a x10.5 with a 40ish offset, there just isn't room for 15-20mm in the back unless you have over -3 camber. The ISF's rear hubs sticks out more than the IS350 which is why we have less outer space which is why you see ISF's with 40-50 offset wheels.
i''ll try to do to snap some pics if i can borrow a friend's wheel.

I've been in the wheel game for years as well..
In this pic its a +30 and you're saying a +22 fits with room to spare? I'm imaging a ~10mm spacer ontop of this setup and you can easily see that you'll need atleast -3 to -4 camber to fit this setup.

just look at his stretch, it's minimal. i had a narrow toyo tires running 255/30/19 that was wayyy more stretch than that.
with the narrrow 275/30, i can see it fitting.

I've been in the wheel game as well for the past 10 years, have spent so much on wheels lol. I had 12 different sets of wheels on my STi while i had it, on my third set of wheels on the ISF already and 3 sets on my daily SC 300 too lol. I know, I have a problem. I don't think any of us are trying to argue with each other, just helping others out.

tell me this, how is this owner running 350z sizes, 19x9.5 and 10.5 22 offset front and rear? look at his fenders, its rolled. mine is rolled flat as well. like i said, i already tried them on the ISF. i know i can probably fit a 275/30 narrow tire for sure. 275/35? maybe not. and the person asking is not even lowered at all, i dont see him rubbing. it might look retarded though without being lowered.

what ive noticed people on this ISF forum, no one knows anything about being LOW. the lower you go, the more camber you run. if you are using that grey isf for reference, you are basing rubbing issues from how it sits. but when suspension compresses, it naturally cambers in and clearing most of the time. of course if you are not low, you will look more flush. that's a given.
i would show you guys what i mean, because like i said in a diff thread, i can really make the stance on this car look good but this car has wayyy too much power to be running a low car with stretch tires or whatever. i have traction issues as is, i think it would be stupid to do that on this car and fat tires are proper which is the route im doing this time around. but 275/30 narrow tires can look like a 255/35 normal sized tires. some tires stretch better than others.

That ISF looks like it has atleast -3 camber in the back.. which is my point.
And I'm not talking about camber and being low, I'm assuming we can adjust our camber to fit the wheels accordingly whether it be -1 or -6. But my statement still holds until you can prove a 275 tire can fit a x10.5+22 wheel without excessive camber and by excessive meaning -3 and more.
Of course a x10.5+22 or even a x10.5+10 can fit this car but with what camber setting? Height doesn't matter, if you have a 3 finger gap or if the tires are sitting on the fender, we are talking about the clearance vs camber issue.
I agree this car has too much power to be running a stretched tire or excessive camber that may hinder performance.

Heres a perfect example of what I mean..
This car below has a x10.5+30 on 245/35 (very thin and skinny tires)
You're telling me that a 275 tire which is considerably wider can fit a x10.5+22 without excessive camber? I somehow just don't believe it.. this car's wheels are already poking out beyond the quarter panel..

My aggressive rear but slight offset fail front. I'm on stock suspension with 25mm drop in the front courtesy of lowering blocks just for the look. The rims are 20x8.5 +40 and 20x10 + 38. Running 255/30 rears stretched to minimize rub. On hard braking fronts and rear rub. People in the (even my lightweight kids) causes rub in the rear. Guards have not been rolled for now.

Just to chime in because it's true isF owners aren't really into being very low (not that you should) but I ran a 10.5+22 and my camber was - 3.3 with a 245/35.
No way you will fit a 10.5+22 with a 275/35 or even a 275/30 if you have plans of dropping the car.

you are comparing 20" wheels to 19" wheels. let me break it down to you.
oem 19" 255/35/19
the one you are comparing, 20" 245/35/19
what he is asking 19 275/30/19
