Maybe add in the fact that I'm on H&R springs with OEM shocks that don't appreciate the aftermarket springs? Haha.

possibly you might be bouncing alot more. I just wouldnt think it would be that close cus you have -2 camber and im sitting at like closet to -0.8. Oh well, in the end nothing is ever built 100% like the next item especially when its diff, wheels, diff tires, diff suspension setups!

i have a 2009 base 370z and just bought the following size wheels... will they fit okay?

front: 20 x 8.5 with a 32 offset
rear: 20 x 9.5 with a 35 offset.

do you all think it will look funny or do i ned anything else?
\
thank you!!!

daisuke149 07-10-2011 03:34 PM

those will fit.. be very recessed. You'd prolly want some massive spacers if you wanted a flusher look.

P.S why didnt you get something wider?

mbenetto 07-10-2011 03:46 PM

I honestly didnt know better, the salesman said theyd fit like the factory wheels... do you think it will look funny without the spacers... the tires i bought are 245-35-20 up front and 285-30-20 in the rear. I get the put on next week. What size spacers would you recommend? thanks for your help... I am very new aT this as you can tell :)

A 45mm spacer up front and a 65mm spacer in the rear would help. I hate to say it, but those wheels are going to be tucked nearly 2 inches up front and nearly 3 inches in the rear.

not only that. but since they are so tucked, depending on the design i hope they clear the brakes. : /

If I get wider tires and bigger wheels, will it throw off my speedo? If yes, where would I take it to get the speedo corrected? I didn't read this entire thread so I don't know if thhis question was answered.

all depends on the overall tire size you get.

You could go wider, with a smaller sidewall ratio which could make the overaly wheel+tire height the same as the OEM, in which case the speedo is the same.

Unless you get something completely wrong, your speedo wouldnt be off by more than +- 3% which isnt that big of a deal.

mbenetto 07-10-2011 06:29 PM

so if i get the spacers, the stance will look correct? will it drive different? sorry to ask so many questions.

You should have asked or done research before buying wheels...

On a side note, I don't think spacers in the sizes you need exist.

Hi. I have a 370z with sports package and lowered on swift spec-r springs. I wanted to know if these volk ce28n would fit without any fender modification and what size tires to go with. Thanks in advance.

19x9.5 +12
19x10.5 +12

Enkie RPF1 18x10.5 15 offset
 
I bought a set of Enkei 18x10.5 w/15 offset and I think I may have screwed up. My plan was to run a sqaure set up with 285 or 305. I have only tracked the car once with the standard setup (Nismo 19") and experienced some understeer that I was hoping to correct.

The rear is fine, but the front sticks out about 1" past the fender.

My first thought was to keep two for the rear and buy two new RFP1s in 18x9.5 with 38 or 45 offset and go back to a staggered setup but I am told that they won't work because of a spoke clearance issue with the brakes on the.

Does anyone here have any experience with the 18" RPF1s on a 370Z? I am looking for a solution other than selling these and going with a different wheel altogether but that looks like where I am heading.

The +12 in the front is pretty aggressive. I'd go with 245/35/19 in the front. And a 275 or 285 in the rear with a 10mm spacer to match the fronts aggressive stance better. You may need a camber kit if it rubs..
Hope that helps :tiphat:
