how low??
Sunday, April 04, 2010 8:21 AM
i just bought an 02 z24 last night and it has some pretty big rims on it. i was wondering how much i could lower it without having the car scrape. they are 215/35/19. i know their pretty big but its all i have right now

love those rims! i would get some coilovers.. it looks like your running a 19x7? with a pretty high offset. so lowering it with coilovers would nice or even some eibach sportlines.

i have the same style wheels from ADRs but mine are 18x8. i think with a 38mm offset and 215 rubber. i do rub at full lock but thats it.



and on my teal cav.

unless you do ALOt of u-turns then you really shouldnt have issues. Your wheel and tire combo look narrower with a high offset. did you buy these off of a guy with a sedan ?

Forget the spacers in the rear. Do a disk brake swap and it will take care of it.
As James said, you'll have no issues. Those are narrow wheels for the size, and with the 215 tire, and the high offset, you should have no problem tucking those.
Nice looking car.
