Is it flush?

Thanks.

I have 3mm spacers all the way around, needs closer to 15-20mm to be flush. They are 2011 STi Enkei wheels which have a really high offset (+55) so not ideal wheels for a flush setup. And the tires are pretty beefy (245/40).

love everything about it exceeeeeept.... I can't stand seeing people stretch tires just for looks, and this guy is doing exactly that, I took a real good look as I drove next to him, watched his suspension compress up and down, his ride height... he had plenty of wheel gap, and his offsets were conservative enough to where he could have gone with normal sized tires easily AND STILL dropped the car without it all rubbing...

STRETCH ONLY IF YOU NEED CLEARANCE, NOT FOR LOOKS DAMMIT!
i dont know maybe im being a bit harsh maybe i shouldn't assume, maybe he's still figuring it all out in regards to proper tire sizes

thanks for the input gspec! i've been meaning to drop it lower. however my midpipe is hanging quite low.
so i just wanna figure that out first before i really slam it down. don't wanna risk any additional damage to my midpipe while achieving the look i want.

awesome! but like I said I had a feeling you may have been in the midst of tinkering with the setup so my post wasn't really directed at you but more so at dudes in general, cuz I see a lot of guys that stretch just because it's "cool" From the way your car was set up with all the quality components I was pretty sure you wasn't one of these guys, so I was just speaking in general terms...
every part you got on your car is fckin money in my books man, I love the clean oem stylin look as opposed to wild

As far as the mid pipe, yea I notice a lot of single exhaust cars the aftermarket mid pipes are always hanging super low for whatever reason, have you ever thought about doing a clean dual exhaust setup for your car, they usually are very nicely tucked well under the subframe.

I'm pretty sure there is aftermarket options for your car for full dual exhausts right ??


btw, that LED square on your rear diffuser, you got any pics of that ? I've seen'em before on 370z's but not in LED's flashing F1 style like yours did, that shit was super neat dude

And looks 900x better!! LOVE the Rubicon rims!

You know when the VW guys are switching back to proper set ups, that this whole poke/stretch business is definitely played out...
