Zfighter76 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 eheh finally put the flares on! Hmm so great to meet 10.5psi again :) are those some cromodoras????? Quote Link to comment
Unfriendly Garage Posted December 19, 2011 Report Share Posted December 19, 2011 My 75. 15x10 -15 all around. My S30 friend recently sent me a link to your blog, he was interested in running 10 wide on his s30 without fender flares. I rolled the fenders on my S130 to get the 15x10-35 all around without clearance issues. I even had enough room to run a 15mm spacer in the rear. The weight of the steel wheels didn't really effect the performance much. If it did *shrug* it didn't stop me from tracking on them. hah Not to mention, NA s130 is slow. Quote Link to comment

Fender wells are much deeper on an S130 though as opposed to an S30. Its a little difficult to fit 10's under stock S30 fenders without excessive pulling or negative camber Quote Link to comment

Its a shame they aren't as good looking as the S30. :D I miss my 74 260z, but i like the how the S130 drives, feels like a S13. haha Quote Link to comment
VRTkyle Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I like your ZX. My first car was an 82. Was always bummed that nobody wanted to do anything cool to them.. I wanted to take mine to a ridiculous level that nobody's done but I ended up needing to sell it... Quote Link to comment
ComicArtist Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 My first car was a '79! First car I (accidentally) drifted in. Hitting backroads corners way too fast, too much throttle, shitty tires, lots of unintended oversteer. I kind of want to get another one just for a drift missile... Quote Link to comment

ZX are much easier to drift than S30. Sell the miata, get another ZX ;) Quote Link to comment

Fender wells are much deeper on an S130 though as opposed to an S30. Its a little difficult to fit 10's under stock S30 fenders without excessive pulling or negative camber Im currently running 16x10 -35 225/50 on the rear of my s30. It took a lot of pulling to get it to fit. Running a 205/50, lots of camber, and less aggressive offset could probably fit with minimal pulling. Quote Link to comment

Alex Datsun Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Why not get smaller tires or zgflares? Them fender lips are uhh...not happy. Got more pics of the 16x8 205/50 fitment because thats what i want to run all around or 195/40-50's. Quote Link to comment

Got more pics of the 16x8 205/50 fitment because thats what i want to run all around or 195/40-50's. The stretch of a 225/50 on a x10 is enough for me. Id rather have metal fenders then fiberglass/urethane/plastic. Im still not finished with the fenders though. Once im done, it'll be smooth. This the only picture I have showing the front. (I was seeing how low I could go in the front) 1 Quote Link to comment
Alex Datsun Posted December 23, 2011 Report Share Posted December 23, 2011 Looks fresh, now i have idea what my fitment will be. Any rubbing at all? Quote Link to comment
Dee Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 That fitment looks tits! I may have to attempt that if I ever decide on coilovers props Quote Link to comment
