I'll probably go if other people are going.

Yeah, its literally like across the dang street from my house. I plan to swing over there and atleast check it out. Not even sure if I'll pull the car out, Linds and I might just take Louie out for a walk around the lake.

Offset for Sedan...

I need some advice or someone to direct me to a good resource for determining the best offset for my G37x sedan.... I have read a ton but of course there is so much useless debate that I can't figure out who knows what they are talking about and who is full of crap.

I am strongly considering Forgestar F14's, 19 x 9 (could go 8.5??), 245/40 V12's on all four corners. I want a square set-up so I can rotate the tires and not have to worry about my AWD. I am assuming I will have to run a a spacer on the front to flush things up. My question, because I can have any offset I want, understanding they have to be the same front and rear so I can rotate, what will be my best option?? I do not want any poke beyond my sheet metal at all. I would rather be conservative than aggressive with the fit. I will be dropping on Swift X springs, front 1.3" drop and rear a 1". I don't want to run negative camber to tuck the wheels either.


You guys are a great resource and I appreciate your expertise and help!!

RJ

If you don't want any poke at all then run a 19 x 9 with +35 all around. it won't poke out but you also won't be hella sunk.

RJ, if you're considering forgestar f14s, i suggest you contact Charles or Adrian from b2autodesigns. They hooked me up with both the f14s on my coupe, and the cf5s on my sedan. You just have to tell them what model you have and what kind of look you want, and they will help you out. They've been very helpful and know what they're talking about!

Btw to Janik and Andrew, I already spoke with Lance but nice to say twice....if you can bring a mini usb charger for your car you can charge your GoPro on the fly. Otherwise I will have a couple chargers running for it too. Need to keep my phone charged so I can have my WiFIs for the trip down to upload photos and such from my laptop.
