Yes, you can run all fronts or all rears w/out issue.

For those of you running coupe wheels with 245/40 fronts and 275/35 rears on stock ride height....are the rears flush or do they poke out?

Any pics from the rear that show how flush they are would be great

Looks good man. Maybe I missed it, are you planning on adding spacers?

I am. I have 20mm DRM spacers that I want to toss on. I need to get extended studs for the spacers themselves, to work safely though. The studs on the spacers are a bit too short for my liking.

Ha! You should scratch it then, so you don't have to freak out about not scratching it!

Nice color, that Graphite Shadow!

LOL NO, I'd cry trying to do such a thing.

I think it's going to get it clearbra'd, along with my hood once I get it repainted. Needs some love.

^which place do you use for powdercoating?

Been playing around with the idea of trying out some g35 coupe 18s on my car, would likely refinish them in a darker finish

NOVA Powdercoat. Ask for Darryl - tell him Connor sent you. I'm gonna try to start working with him on the side to help out his business. He's pretty much a one man operation so he could use the help here and there.

He does great work, that's for sure. He's doing a set of wheels for my friend right now - they're gonna turn out fantastic.

Hi, your ride look super classy and clean. If you don't mind, how did you wire the rear camera and what is that spoiler? (nice)

Found a staggered set, still need to drop, by the way can someone tell me if I need a camber kit? I plan to drop on coilovers, (mild drop) and will like to change tires from 225/45 front 245-40 rear to 245/40 front 275/35 rear.



Front

That would be the Stillen spoiler w/ the oem chrome piece painted to match.

Looks good
I would recommend the camber/toe set, the $500 price will be offset over time in the cost of tires, and to have your alignment proper is rarely a bad thing Plus a lot of coilovers drop quite a bit even at their highest settings (mine drop to zero gap in back at their highest), so your alignment will be way off without them in a lot of cases.

Thanks for the info, do you recommend a specific brand for coilovers and camber kit? I'm still deciding between KW or BC (I'm aware some people hear a sound with BC). I'm clueless regarding camber kits!!!
