Thanks you!!!

I was wondering if you were avoiding my question lol. Sorry.

I'm just curious how they look so clean. It doesn't make any sense to me. All of the other 18s I've seen look comically small.

+100 for a super clean looking stance!!!

Just a thought: What suspension are you running?

That might be what makes your setup look so much better.

Yes with stock ride hight they do look a little small.

I'm running 350Z H-techs that are harder and lower then normal G35 H-techs.

I also did the spring mount mod to bring the rear lower.. It should be 1.5 - 2 inches lower then stock (hard to tell because of the mod)

Thank you again for the info. I called the ebay company about weight since that's a big deal to me.

I'll also have to look into suspension now, I guess. lol

I don't think I'll drop it that low. Something a little stiffer would be nice, but I'm not going to go with anything as harsh as my I30. That was horrible over bumps and potholes lol.
