Hi all

I’ve recently bought some 18” wheels for the zed that I’m not fitting until I purchase a set of decent coilovers (at least that’s current thinking). However, I had a set of Meister R coilovers on my last zed and being honest, I prefer the ride on oem suspension. 

 

So I wondered, does anyone have any photos of their cars with 18” wheels and standard suspension? ? Would like to see if it looks a little weird (how I think it might look) or if it’s passable ?

cheers!

(Random pic of my car... for no reason at all ?) 

 

From a long time ago...

My short wheel base is on standard oem suspension and 18" wheels. The fronts have 25mm wheel spacers to fill out the wheel arch better.

 

 

I have the Tokico Illumina 5-Way Adjustable Shock Absorbers on my car with the OEM springs (and 18” wheels). I’m told that this make it sit as standard. I’ve never felt that the car looks awkward but do intend to put OEM shocks back on with H&R lower springs at some point.

 

Thanks gents! Appreciate you taking the time. 

Doesn’t look as daft as I thought it would! Which is good ? 

 

18" wheels and standard version R suspension.

You're right, it doesn't.....

I think mine is only 25mm lower on Meister Rs anyway; but a 300zx still sits fairly low on the OEM set-up..... Well it will, if the 25+ YO springs have sagged!
