Alright guys, I have done my browsing and been in contact with some people at fitment industries.

Currently I am running stock suspension, and stock wheels (19's) with the Big Brake Kit.
I'm looking for an flush-almost flush fitment, WITHOUT SPACERS (unless very minimal) as they wear and tear up your car, and this is my daily. I would also like to keep the staggered stance.

WHEELS INTERESTED IN:
*ESR SR01....Aodhan AH02....XXR531....Aodhan DS06...Varrstoen Es1
Color - WHITE with chrome/machined deep dish lip

IF ANYONE has any of those wheels, please get ahold of me so I can get an understanding of what you have done for them to fit. The ESR SR01's are a personal fav and really would like to make those work, but fitmentindustries said ESR was not able to find the caliper clearance on the Z.

Oh...? I read every word of your posts and no where did it tell me what the brake clearance distance is from the bolt points. I understand all of offset and backspacing and so on...didn’t mean to upset ya

Brake clearance is wheel specific

Those wheels have terrible clearance because they are cheapass fake 3 piece

Get a real wheel like the Work VSXX/MX or SSR MS1/MS3 and they can get you a specific face to clear your brakes

send over $3800 and I'd be glad to. Not everyone can afford such wheels right off the bat...hate to argue but you seem to only like the best and bash people who cannot pay for such. Very helpful information but we can agree to disagree on the wheel choice

You do realize the wheels you're looking at are worse than the stock Rays in every measurable metric, right? They're weaker, heavier and fit worse than stock. You would literally be far better off doing nothing than buying the wheels you want.

XXR/Varrstoen/etc are the shitty brands that retards and ricers buy. Don't be that guy. Your car deserves better.

Is it possible to find wheels like such without using spacers or heavy modification? Can I have 3 piece wheels or only ones without lips? Any help is appreciated. Thanks everyone!!
