Sick ride btw, sick color, wheels, perfect ride height, and most of all best wide body kit. Respecting and accentuating those killer stock lines

what specs are your wheels?? i love the APR widebody kit, it follows the lines of the G35 the best honestly. i have wheels that I want to use definitely, but i dont think they might be wide enough, but would like to know your specs and offsets F&R so I can get an idea of how mine would look when I get this kit a few years down the pipeline

I'll have to check, I don't remember. The wheels are not spec'd for the APR widebody kit. To get wheels spec'd for this kit you will spend $5-6K for custom 3 pc wheels. These are the wheels I ran before I put the kit on. I used spacers to bring them out to get that fitment. I can get you some information, just need a little time to take a look at the current offset, then you can add the spacers. I will get back to you shortly. As for the kit, it is a good kit but does have its own drawbacks. The front clearance is low (By design) so that can be a problem depending on where you drive. It is fiberglass so any significant impact will likely crack as opposed to some of the poly kits that can flex. I share your thoughts on the overall look, it kept to the original design yet is unique. I am very happy with it but be sure you do some research before making the investment.

@kevinbentley3923 quite honestly I have 2 wheels I will ever put on the G35 one is 18 x8 +19 and 18 x9 +23. The other is 19x8.5 +28 and 19x9 +30. I just love these wheels and these are final offsets after calculating for a 15mm spacer all around. How would those look with this APR kit? Because of the cost this is something I would do 3 to 4 years down the line. I did stumble across your reddit write up for a widebody costs and cons which was well written i clicked the video link which led me back to this video. I also only intend to use the side rockers, rear fenders, and rear bumper from the kit, and another choice of front fenders and front bumper, but likely I will have to source the entire kit. I know my offsets are weak but at the same time I need that widebody, the G35 structure is too narrow for me. I also shed a tear of joy when I read that the kit sits low. Like you I am also attached to my G35 and will be keeping it.

You still there bro?

Yes, I am still here. Sorry, been working on another project lately which has kept me busy. I am getting the G ready for a show this weekend so I will get you my offset and dimensions tonight. Shoot me an email and we can chat more (exchange phone numbers) if you would like more information on my experience. It can be found in the about section. I'll post up on the wheel specs tonight. Sorry for the late response...

Ok, I have some information for you. I got these wheels long before I considered a widebody kit. Front: 19x8.5 +35 w/245/40/19 tires Rear: 19x9.5 +40 w/285/35/19 tires Money was a little tight so I used 50mm spacers on all four corners but one day I plan to get a proper set of wheels... just need more money than sense, lol So, if you are looking for my fitment you will want a 19x8.5 -15 for the front and a 19x9.5 -10 for the rear. You can clearly get wider rims and adjust accordingly. Hope that helps. My calculations are based on 50mm spacers minus my offsets.

Very Nice! What fenders are those?
@kevinbentley39232 ай бұрын
That is the Iceland offroad package. I built that rig 15 yrs ago, so I'm not sure if they are still around. They build good quality products; have taken a lot of offroad abuse, and held up well.

I posted a link in the description to the build thread in case you want more information. I am not sure why the photos are showing a broken link, but I am trying to fix that. It contains all the vendors and links for everything on the build. I hope it helps...

How did you install the rear fender for that body kit I got the same one and I was curious if you could send me a video
@kevinbentley39232 ай бұрын
On the G35, it needs to be blended into the body line. I had a professional body shop do that for me. I originally wanted to install the kit myself until I found that issue and it changed the game plan... That fender sets the alignment for the entire kit so I would recommend getting some professional help. It will impact everything if it is off. I still have some stress cracks on the back so things can go wrong even with someone who knows what they are doing. This is the definition of scope-creep so buckle up and get ready for a ride, lol Good luck and share some links so we can follow your build.

What happened to the guy at 13:30 into video ?
@kevinbentley39232 ай бұрын
So sorry for the late response, never saw this. He was stuck in a really precarious position, all of his body weight was on the falling side ofthe bike so he could not help himself. I am surprised other didn't stop and help him but it is a race. I never race to win so I didn't mind helping him out. He was not hurt, just stuck. I assume he was there awhile since we was ranked 3rd overall 250 but I have no way of knowing of. He was back in the race quickly and hope he made up for the lost time.

how do you like the the red stuff brake pads? when racing or doing pulls at hard brakes does it leave a heat ring around the rotors?
@kevinbentley3923 Жыл бұрын
I have not noticed any heat rings, although I have not really applied any real hard breaking. The red sport 400's come with the larger brakes, I only upgraded to the two piece rotors for weight savings. The car has a lot of untapped potential. I mainly enjoy the car so I haven't pushed it too hard. I will say that after diving this for awhile, it was quite an adjustment to get back in the G35. I love both cars though, each has its own place...
