a half inch aint gonna be that much difference
245/40/19 is fine

if you wanna go to a 235/40/19 you'll also be fine (anyone even make that size)?

225/45/19 is a little tall but also in range. It'll be a stretch tho if ur against that stuff

ah ok thanks. What are your thoughts on 19x9+14 up front?

OEM sport is 19x9 + 47, and most ppl stick with 20mm spacers up front, which makes it effectively +27mm offset....so 14mm up front seems super aggressive.

I'll be lowered on Swift Springs. I feel like the 14mm will require alot of camber (+ purchase of adjustable control arms). Hoping someone on here has a similar set up in the front and can chime in. Otherwise I'll likely pass on the wheels since I can't test fit them (no tires included, and my car's in storage for the winter).

OptionZero 02-01-2017 03:52 PM

That's not aggressive

i'm running 20x11 +15 front with a 275/30/20, about -3 camber. That's aggressive.

Folks regularly run 19x9.5 +22 with 265/35/19 (standard TE37 fitment for 370Z), and that is only 1mm different than yours. That's people not particularly lowered either

l2iceman 02-01-2017 03:58 PM

Ah sorry, I just Re did the offset calculator, 19x9+14mm is the exact same clearance as 19x9.5+20mm.

So I should be fine with this set up.

Thanks alot! Repped.

invest in some SPL front upper control arms and free yourself of ever worrying about front fitment ever again

l2iceman 02-01-2017 04:06 PM

ah, yea, I have a set budget to spend on mods this year haha I considered not getting wheels, and just doing spacers (which I just got) and putting the wheel/tire money towards coilovers/FUCA/Rear camber arms. But a decent deal came up locally for the F14s, which seem to be pretty rare here in Toronto.

OptionZero 02-01-2017 04:11 PM

genereally i'm always suspension before wheels
any worthwhile wheels will need the adjustment to dial in the fitment

Hi everyone

Need help for a friend. He got a monterey blue Z and he need tips for fitment. He want to have 19s or 20s. He want to stay stock camber and suspension and he want to have flush or a little bit inside the fender. Will it fit and what can be the best? Any advice will be really appreciate :)

Tires on 19s 255/45/19 285/40/19
Tires on 20s 255/40/20 285/35/20 Something in those ranges...


1st Stance SC-5 in 19s 19x9.5 +20 or +35 offset front and 19x10.5 +20 offset rear or in 20s 20x9 +20 or +32 offset front and 20x10.5 +27 offset rear

2nd Verde Insignia 20x9 +15 or +30 offset front and 20x11 +25 offset rear

3rd Varro VD10 20x8.5 +25 or +35 (245/40/20 tire) offset front and 20x10 +25 offset rear

4th Savini BM12 19s 19x9.5 any range +15 to +50 offset front and 19x10.5 any range +15 to +50 offset rear or in 20s 20x8.5 any range +15 to +50 offset front and 20x10.5 any range +15 to +50 offset rear

I'll look at wheels in a second; confirm tire sizes-those are 28" diameter tires.....they will fit,,,but will have to be cautious on offsets.

jchammond 02-09-2017 04:21 AM

Your key word's are stock "camber & suspension"
after confirming tire sizes....would not hurt to measure or add spacer's to factory wheels & achieve desired look...but here goes,
Front 8.5 (+19-----+25) 9.0 (+25-----+32) 9.5 (+32-----+38)
Rear 10.0 (+12-----+19) 10.5 (+19-----+25) 11.0 (+25-----+32)
lowest number will be more aggressive & approx (4" [front-spacing] on front & 5" front spacing on rear) (higher offset # 3.75F & 4.75R)

jchammond 02-09-2017 04:32 AM

also (for whatever it's worth) Factory Nismo wheel's are 19x9.5+40F & 19x10.5+23R
Have a nice day.

I ended up ordering +25 for my rears. It seemed the safest bet for fitting big rubber. I can add spacers and push out a bit if necessary, but can't take away offset if my starting point is too far the other way.

My friend speaking...another question

What about on 19s or on 20s. I know the sujet is delicate but what is the best because I don't want my Z to look like a truck because i'm not lowering it?

What do you mean with this? It's the flushness in the fender but 4inches mabee more 4mm ???
approx (4" [front-spacing] on front & 5" front spacing on rear) (higher offset # 3.75F & 4.75R)

Tks

Backspacing vs Offset.

The inches refer to the former and mm to the latter.

Quote:

Wheel offset and backspace measure the same thing but in a little different way. They tell you where in the wheel well a particular wheel will sit.

Offset is a measurement in millimeters from the backside of the mounting plate to the center line of the wheel. A positive number puts the mounting plate further away from the backside of the rim. A negative measurement moves it closer to the backside. Since offset is based on the center line, the width does factor in. That is to say an 8-inch wide +45mm offset and 7-inch wide +45mm offset results in a 1/2" difference in wheel positioning. The 8-inch wide will be further into the wheel well. To gain a better understanding of the offset of a wheel, read our tech article on this topic.

Backspace measures the distance from the mounting plate to the back edge of the wheel. The higher the backspace the further into the fender well it will sit.

Front spacing is measured from the hub out...if you're driving a nismo, it's worth the effort to try a few different spacers on your wheels to see what you like....28" tires could possibly put you looking more like a truck/if not dropped down a bit.
Good for snow though.
