I'm thinking about uprating my suspension and I'm looking for advice on best set up for the 300ZX. I've got a late series 1996 (Import).

I've recently added a new set of wheels Imiglia F20's. The fronts are 19x35x235 Toyo Proxes on 8.5" rims and the rears are 19x30x265 Toyo Proxes on 9.5" rims. Not sure if I'll be able to lower the car with this wheel and tyre combination. Any ideas!!!

How much would I expect to pay for an upgrade and where's he best place to get them from & fitted?

Cheers

Steve

lowering should be fine as long as the overall diameter has been kept the same.

i am currently selling my brand new set of koni shocks and blitz springs:

The Koni Shocks and Blitz springs is a very good setup.

 

Another popular choice is KYB AGX Shocks and Eibach springs. Adjustable front and back, and great value for money.

Have you sold your springs yet or are both sets still for sale. If so, how much for the shocks and the springs?

Macca I've heard you have this combo on your Z. Do you think it will fit mine, even with my set of 19's??

Sorry about that mate. I'm still finding my way around the forum.

I've read your message, however, I need to make sure these will go on without my tyres catching. I'll be in touch

no worries, your wheels are the same size as mine and so i know they are wearing the right profile tyres. the diameter of the tyre will be the same as stock as the increase in wheel size is compensated by the decrease in tyre side-wall size (profile). ultimately the overall size is the same as stock.

 

il wait for someone to confirm this to put your mind at rest. dnt forget the shocks are ride height adjustable.
