How much negative camber are you running the rear? That's also an interesting tire size you went with. You got a mild stretch in the rear and a straight edge in the front.

I drive a lot for work, so the tire choice was one for tire life. As for camber I don't have those details. I'm not sure how to
measure that

I think the design of the OEM GTR wheels goes very well with the G sedan, only thing that looks off to me is the width/offset of the rears, pushing out a little too far for my taste. Nonetheless nice car!

Hmm. Looking at that back-end photo... you know what you need? Exhaust tips in black chrome or gloss black.

Quad tips look nice if you prep the bumper for the added width, on the oem bumper they tend to look a bit off (usually).

Yes, but less so with the 2010+ model.

Welcome to the club! A lot of trial and error before I finally found the perfect suspension and tire setup. No rub at all, and the rears sit nice and flush.

Your right about that. I plan on getting a diffuser as well so that will help with the mod. If anyone comes across some good looking products please post them up or share a link. What I have seen of diffusers for the G so far, not to impressing

Bilstein PSS10 Coilovers
Eibach front and rear sways.
-3.2 camber in the rear.
255/35/20 on all four corners.



The adjustability is great. However, it did take some time to find the right height and a few alignments to get it just right.

Originally I only had Eibach's prokit (which I didnt care for much), running 285/30/20 rear and 255/35/20 front. The rears were just way to wide. It rubbed on every little bump. Passengers weren't an option with that setup.

I couldn't imagine having any issues had I had the opportunity to purchase four GT-R front's.

Which is why Newt and I and others have opted to simply wrap that area of the bumper with vinyl. IMO, it looks a lot cleaner than ill-fitted, bolt-on plastic.
