280z4me2 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Ive been thinking of molding in some zg flares. Whats the widest tire you can fit on the rear of an S30 without flares? Also, do yall know of any good front valences that would flow into the front flares really good and not look like two seperate pieces?

rturbo 930 Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Widest tire I've seen put on an unflared S30 is a 275. This was on a 17" rim, with coilovers and rolled fenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
signal34 Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 This is the only front air dam that I have seen that flows into the ZG flares and it's a custom build. I would also love to find one that could blend into the front flares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARZ_ Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Ive been thinking of molding in some zg flares. Whats the widest tire you can fit on the rear of an S30 without flares? I have had 4 different types of 275/40-17's on my car and the widest were Kumho V710's and they fit but just barely, and YES I did have to roll the inner rear fender lip. Right now I have Mickey Thomson street E/T's and they are a little taller, Maybe they are 45's but they stick so awesome I cant go back to a tire that fits better. Im going to move them inboard so I can continue to lower the rear, it looks a bit high since the tire is too tall and the section width changed. MAN TO THEY HOOK UP!!! Even at 22 PSI I can use all of second gear. BTW I am running the AZC 5 lug rear conversion along with the AZC coil overs and AZC LCA's. The wheels are 17x9x35mm offset and you will probably need some sort of camber plates to move the top of the wheel around too. I made custom ones so I could retain the stock interior. In order of widest to narrowest tires (all were 275/40-17's) also included is how sticky they were/are. Kumho V710's (Treadwear rating 30) Mickey Tompson Street E/T's (Treadwear rating 0) Kumho V70a's (aka ECASTA V700's) (Treadwear rating 50) Nitto 555 Drag Radial's (Treadwear rating 100) The Treadwear ratings were represenative, zero being the stickiest and 100 being the least sticky.

LS240 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 You could maybe try to get a Reaction Research Subtle Z front bumper to work. They have that little side molding piece like the custom bumper above, which would give you a good start to work with but probably still require some modification to fit snug to a ZG flare.

thehelix112 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Mickey Tompson Street E/T's (Treadwear rating 0) Sorry to hijack but, how do they handle? Do you have them on all four or just the rears? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
