She's come a long ways since I last saw her. Nice work. Definitely one of the nicest G's in the UAE.

 

ya, im planning to... its convenience if you need extra cargo space, since i dont have a truck

 

So I finally got these on! Had them for months, trying to decide to sell them or try it out!

DBA GTR wheels
20x9.5 +25 after 20mm spacers
20x10.5 +25

245/35/20 front and rear
Bc coilovers
Stock camber arms

Around -4.5* camber rear
Toe is in spec so tire wear won't be bad
I forgot to get my specs printout or I'd post it here.

The wheel clears inside the quarter panels without touching.







I know it's more aggressive than most of you prefer but I love the way it turned out! I'd like to raise the rear to match the front height but my coils were bought used here, and the threads are smashed up and I can't get the collars to move up.

Also, yes the window trim will be wrapped eventually lol!

 

Hey Johnny if you're happy with it then that's what counts, just hope you have someone that can get you nice deals on tires

 

I have some GTR black edition wheels that have been laying around for a while, might throw them on for a different look. If I run the same tire size as you, on my current setup it should clear everything without issues.

 

Yikes!

There were a few weeks of fail last year when I had -3* camber in the rear, while I waited on rear camber arms and a new alignment. Can't possibly imagine what -4.5* would be like, but I suspect it doesn't get better.

Is this genuinely what you want? Good looking rims, but... OMG.

 

Yes I got a great deal on these tires through eBay from Discount Tire Direct. Not to mention in my past, I change setups so much much that I never get to the point of replacing tires lol...

Because I am so low, the front does run very very slightly on certain turns. It's so slight I might not even look into rolling then fenders. But as aggressive as it is, it's actually crazy how very little it rubs. I'm amazed I didn't have to fight to keep it from scrubbing fenders! I did a small phonebook pull in the rear just for some peace of mind.


I had -3* on the stock wheels, I had to add some negative camber to help the wheels clear the quarters. Otherwise the wheel would smash into my quarters on bumps or with a full car. I would rather do this than start flaring(ruining) the body/quarter panels to make wheels fit. I used to daily drive my Prelude with the same or more negative camber. I did not have crazy short lived tires. It's really not as bad as everyone makes it seem. Like I said the toe is in spec, which is the main tire slayer, so I don't expect any crazy tire wear. Plus I'm running the same size tire all around, so they can be flipped and or rotated on the wheels if I need. But like I said, chances are, I'll move onto a new setup before the tires need replacing. I just had this vision of these wheels on this car and I had to go through with it.

 

My first G! 2013 G37X Prem-Nav

 

 

I get all that, and good for you getting toe in spec. But my point was that severe neg camber can transform your otherwise fine looking sport sedan into a clown car. All things being subjective, of course. My rears are at -2.2* give or take, and that's hovering on the edge of acceptable for me.

Welp, good luck with that.

 

I had -2.9 in the rear before getting the alignment fixed and it made the car incredibly tail happy..

 

Welcome!

 

Sunset reflection, figured I'd take a pic.

 

thanks man! much appreciated!

 

The build is coming along slowly but surely. Been considering getting rid of her for a bit before 100k but decided it's paid for and in good shape, anything I'd currently be comfortable taking a loan out to buy isn't a big enough upgrade.

Just rolled over 93k, here's to another 20k miles or so ��
