I'm having a hard time finding a suspension and wheel setup on 18" wheels.
I am on stock height on 9.5 +15 and 10.5s +15 245/275 setup. The front pokes definitely but that wheelgap! What would be the max drop in the front for no rub? Something flush. Nothing insane.. Looking to add possibly 15 or 20mm in the back as well. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk |
I'm trying to find a winter setup for my 370Z with sport brakes and 19" wheels.
I figured 18's since they're cheaper. How's this setup? Will they fit over the sport brakes? What width should I get? Bridgestone Blizzak WS80 225/50R18 95T TR Motorsport C2 18x8.5 38mm offset |
Changed my mind again... lol
I think I'm going to stick with 19s instead of going up to 20s. The wheels are 19x9.5 +20 & 19x10.5 +25 I want it to be flush with no poke or aggressive camber. Decided to go with Nitto Invo's (set A, or B) or RE-11s (set C) A) 255/30/19 - 25.12" diameter and 24lbs 285/30/19 - 25.78" diameter and 29lbs B) 265/30/19 - 25.31" diameter and 25.3lbs 305/30/19 - 26.22" diameter and 32.9lbs C) 265/35/19 - 26.3" diameter and 29lbs 305/30/19 - 26.3" diameter and 32lbs I'm leaning more towards B, but I'm open to suggestions outside of these as well. They also make a 255/35/19 that's a 26.1" diameter that would make the front closer to the rear diameter in set B. Not sure if that's preferable. Thanks in advance! |
You always want to keep your tire height front to rear within 3% to keep your VDC happy. The closer it is. The less chance of sitting off some lights. ;) I would not go with B. Myself would go with C.

Looking for flush fitment on a 1-1.5" drop.
Will I achieve flush fitment in the front with 19x9.5" +25 with a 255mm tyre nd in the rears I'm thinking of doing 19x10.5 +12 with a 275/285mm tyre If I get those rim specs is there any changes you would make in tyre size to achieve flush fitment + driveability? Wheels are Work Emotion CR Kiwami (see attachment) |
Won't be flush
At least how i define it You can't be flush with a 1/1.5 inch drop. But hey, that's me Your setup is in line with the standard 19x9.5 +22/19x10.5 +12 sizing that everyone runs on near stock suspension, except most people do it with 265/305 tires Your rears are only 11mm more aggressive than the normal nismo rear, and that is HELLA sunk. on the other hand, your wheel/tire sizing with clear everything and be better than stock, and you probably won't need all the suspension arms if you want real flush you need to go all the way. Coilovers, arms, better wheel sizing. |
Plan on getting a set of MiRO 398s. I have a 2010 w/ Sports package and still have the OEM 19 sport rays w/ 20mm spacer all around. Stock tire sizes 245 front/275 rear.
Miro suggets the below on their site: Nissan - 370Z - 5x114.3 - 66.1mm hub - MiRO 398 - 19x8.5+15 - Front Nissan - 370Z - 5x114.3 - 66.1mm hub - MiRO 398 - 19x9.5+20 - Rear Vendor suggests below on their site: TYPE 398 - 5x114.3 - 73.1mm Hub - 19" x 8.5", +35 front TYPE 398 - 5x114.3 - 73.1mm Hub - 19" x 9.5", +40 rear Which one should i go with to keep the same level of "flush'. Its not perfect right now, but i like exaclty where its at. If neither of these are going to work, what should i go with? Thanks for any input that is constructive. Here is a pic of where im sitting now: af - Album on Imgur |
I'd say you need to spend about 30 minutes browsing this and other wheel threads
You'd see that those sizes are garbage. A set of Nismo rears in 19x10.5 +23 all around would look better. Hell, one of your sizes is the nismo front and they're recommending that for the rear? That's poverty I know why you're looking at those wheels - they're a TE37 knockoff and appear to be under $300 per wheel. Newsflash: there's a reason why they're so cheap. I'm also digging at their available sizes (but again, knockoffs are trash) and there's nothing remotely close to 370Z sizing. |
husarowns; you'd have to run spacer's with either one of those wheel's.
Uncertain of the quality-but the fitment selection for the 370 isn't there...Would suck to buy new wheel's & then have to use spacer's. |
Option zero , I asked a sizing question, not wether or not your spending my money on TE37s. Thanks for your opinion.
Jc - what size should i look for the flush look to not run spacers. |
