Good luck
Ok tks but I will just put a spacer of 10mm in the rear and I will see. I will get her out in 2 weeks so...I have to wait.

That just sounds like bad wheel choice.

people buying wheels without knowing anything about fitment

esp on a Z which can fit ******* bomb sizes for either track or street

just a waste of a chassis

track guys are running 18x10.5 +15 to +30 on 285 and bigger tires

stance guys can run negative offsets on bags

modest sizing 19x9.5 +22/19x10.5 +12 on budget coils or shock/spring

full suspension mods like me 20x11 +15 and 20x12 +20

its not that hard if you just browse some of the fitment threads, why are people messing this up

Tks for everything Kenchan. Just made a roll out this weekend with my 5mm spacer in the rear and she looks so nice!!! Just a little bit more outside on the rear ( got studs and spacer 10mm in order ) and it will be perfect! Here a pic
