Has anyone seen 19x9.5 +12 or even 19x10.5 +22 TE37s up front with Sport brakes?

I'm running 19x9.5 + 12 up front and holy **** is it close. But it clears. I'm talking can't fit a folded dollar bill between.

This pic I'm posting was before my sport brake upgrade so don't say I don't have them lol. Ill try to get a good pic of how close it is tomorrow.

Thank you, I'll search for his Z.

Awesome, I appreciate it . I was almost positive it was going to work because 19x9.5 +12 fits a 350Z with Akebonos. Do the wheels stick out considerably more? I understand it sticks out 10mm more compared to a +22, but is there any rubbing or a lot of negative camber required? Thanks again guys!

Not much more than stock, as embarrassed as I am to say this, I'm on stock suspension with no issues. Coils coming over the winter build lol.

Can you PM me pictures of your car with the wheels and the Sport brakes? I just want to see the wheels in relation to the fenders and brakes to get a better idea on how everything would potentially fit together. After going through this whole thread, it seems like 19x9.5 +22 is flush enough. But I would really like the extra lip of the the 19x9.5 +12

Beautiful, thanks MUST. Do you have pictures that show how much, if at all, the wheels, especially the front, stick out from the fenders? Something like this:



I have Akebonos on my 350Z and went with 19x9.5 +22 TE37s thinking the 19x9.5 +12 wouldn't clear. Not even a week after receiving my wheels from Injected Performance, I realized I was wrong. I was so upset .

[/Angelo350Z/]

By the way, I would like to get a finish that's a bit darker but in the same color spectrum than the '13 Sport wheels. What Volk Racing finish would be the closest? I haven't seen Formula Silver in person, and I'm definite Mercury Silver is too light. Titanium Gunmetal perhaps?

thanks!...this is the closest of what i have, hope it helps


*because i like scraping on everything, my fenders were rolled/pulled and bumper tabs had to be relocated.

[/Angelo350Z/]

^^That's perfect, thanks for the picture. Man, it sucks your fenders had to be pulled. I just might stick with +22 then.

I stuck with 9.5 +22 for the front and still had to pull my fenders. I learned the hard way after my front tire made sweet love to my freshly color changed fenders.

Then again I'm running a 275/35/19 tire in the front.
