370Ad Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Hello All, Had a few PM's asking for some decent photo's of my new wheels so thought i would put them up for all to see Stance: Rota Drift Grids - 19 x 9.5/19x10.5 ET20 and Tein Springs Only iPhone photos on my drive so nothing too exciting! Cheers, Adam Quote

bronzee Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Makes it look quite stealth, if DB can be stealth. 1 Quote
kris Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Looks great, really nice stance! On a side note, are your front reflectors the smoked ones or did you tint your oem ones? Edited January 31, 2013 by kris 1 Quote
370Ad Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 Looks great, really nice stance! On a side note, are your front reflectors the smoked ones or did you tint your oem ones?

S1 HNK Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 Looking good! Like the black wheels with Azure, really suits it. 1 Quote
kris Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I saw these earlier on... £84.99 for a set of clear 06 reflectors?? I really hope people don't pay that sort of money. Either way, your smoked ones look good especially with the wheels. Quote
Mr mav Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 Stunning mate! what size tyres you running back and front? 1 Quote
Bobbyheinz Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 Looks mint…also interested to know the tyre sizes as they look spot on 1 Quote
370Ad Posted February 3, 2013 Author Posted February 3, 2013 Stunning mate! what size tyres you running back and front? Looks mint…also interested to know the tyre sizes as they look spot on 245/35/19 and 275/35/19, both are stretched slightly due to the rim size. This is as near perfect to OEM size you can get for 19's so there are no problems with the traction control. Quote
KyleR Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 You have me thinking now. I have the same wheels as you and was thinking about 25-30mm drop, but it actually looks pretty good with the 15/17mm. How to think it would compare? 30mm too much? Quote
S1 HNK Posted February 9, 2013 Posted February 9, 2013 ^^^ search for my post as I've got the same wheels on eibach springs with a 30mm drop. Quote

It would look better standing still i imagine, but there are places i cant go/drives i cant get up on the Teins so Eibachs wouldn't really work. At least me and S1 HNK can provide you with the pictures you need to decide yourself Edited February 10, 2013 by 350Ad Quote

This one? http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/66582-19-rota-grids-fitted/#entry988962 Doesn't actually look much different than 350AD's TBH, but I bet in the flesh it looks much lower.

At least me and S1 HNK can provide you with the pictures you need to decide yourself This is whats holding me off just going 30mm, bloody speed bumps which we have a few around here. All can be avoided if necessary, but i'd prefer to have it looking as I want plus go where I want. Quote
S1 HNK Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 ^^^ its not massively lower but I've had teins on my previous Zed so I know the difference and it is quite a bit if you sat the cars side by side. If you think you'll struggle then dont go that low, I dont have any issues with mine but I dont really have any roads near with speed bumps, none that cause it to scrape anyway. All I would say, the eibachs ride much better than the teins, I found mine rock hard where as these Eibachs are very good even with the rubber band tyres. Quote
