Regardless, your going to love them.

I ordered mine in Satin Black. Medium/High Conical? The conical shouldn't change much with the offset. :confused:

mine is a high high conical, but that is a +17 front +08 rear 10.5 the medium I haven't seen on the Z its not bad at all though from what I've seen.

PS welcome to the HRE club! Lol

The see hold you well, really comfortable reclinable(sp) seat, it has a pull lever to pull the back forward to get behind the seat. I'm 5'10 and about 220-230. Its not any lower then the stock seat however it is much more supportive.

If you want more details lmk.

Ryan, actually yours is Low/Low. I'm guessing Robert's setup will be similar in profile.

I still don't see how the offset effects it. :confused:

Low offset is deeper shape
High offset is flat

With 370Z/350Z/GTR because Nissan designed the cars with a lot of brake clearance, you are able to run a low offset wheel. On cars like the new Audi/VW/Lamborghini/Ferrari, they do not allow for Low offset specs, will require a Medium or High offset profiles. Which makes the wheels flat in shape.

You can read more about offset here.

Gotcha. As we get closer to a "0" offset we're pushing the wheel outward which make it a "deeper" look/conical. Wonder why I was suggest those original offsets then of +32/+34?
