Proabably not but you can always wrap a tshirt around one of the spokes and try to install the wheel and see if it touches... btw those are some thin rims for this car...

Yeah I'm just gonna be using them for the winter. Cuz I don't wanna buy expensive blizzaks for the rays 19s

I wonder how a set of 19x11-7 and 20x12.5 0 would fit.

Hey guys, new to the forum... just picked up a touring/sport 370 with the rays wheels. What is the widest i should go front and back? And what is all the talk about spacers? Would 255/35 and 285/35 fit with out spacers? And when is it necessary to include spacers? Thanks for the help.

Super hella flush!!!

Major tire stretch too

nice, just wondering if I need to sell my SSR's or just carry them over to the new Z....decisions decisions

Hey guys im about to change tires for the first time. I want to run 285 rears and 265 fronts. The tires I want are fine for the rears (285/35/19) but the matching tire for the front only comes in a 265/30. Will that smaller aspect ratio look weird in the front? And with those size tires what specers should I run to flush the tires with the fenders? Thanks

will Nismo OEM rear wheels fit at the front? 19"x10.5" +23?

I am thinking to get a square setup :confused: :ugh2:

it will fit but only with camber and a tire stretch. You will most likely rub too if your lowered. Most guys are running 10 +20~25 or so in the front when they are trying to go big like that. Your adding 6.5mm more to the outside making you more aggressive than most people on 10's up front. You can try it but its going to require some work. I hope this helps:tup:

Hello to all I have a newb question I'm about to purchase a 2011 370z/ sports package. My question is tirerack.com doesn't have the 2011 up online only the 2010. Would it be a safe assumption nothings changed in that year between tires. I'm looking to purchase snow tires and rimns before purchasing the car.

nothing has changed :hello: and welcome to the Z club :)

Thanks bullit :)

Off topic:
Any one sell wider fenders? It would look sick if I can run 4 OEM REAR Nismo rims w/ 305 tires front n rear :eek: :p

I don't think there are any in production. I know a few guys were trying to get some vendors to produce them but I don't know if anything came of it.

I agree. 4 Rear Nismo wheels would be pretty sick. Maybe stagger the tire size a bit though. It's also going to be pretty expensive.

What offset would be needed for HRE R40's in 18x12 rear, 18x10 front?

HRE Performance Wheels - Monoblok 1-Piece Wheels

will sport package rear 19x10s and the 275/35/19 tire size fit up front on stock suspension and camber angles?

im sure this question has been answered but what tires will fit front/rear wheels of my nismo they are the stock wheels, i have seen some with 305/30/19 but what will the front need? or can they go 295/35/19 for rear? just want it to be right

run the 305's you can spin those stock with your nismo :tup: for the front run a 255/265 sized tire. Which ever one you want or budget allows.

maybe, go ahead and try to mount them and see if they fit.

Ask HRE since they will be custom made for your Z. They have different pad heights and offsets that can work with that wheel.

hi Bullitt,

you're talking about 305s on the rear. what about 335s? will it fit? if it fits then i'm going with this setup

Thanks

yeah i was gunna give it a whirl over the weekend none the less, but just was seeing if anyone had some prior experience with it. thanks

We can fit 335's but this will depend on your wheel size and offsets. What are you planning to put them on?

Hi Bullitt,

i intend to put 21 inch rims on the rear to make it meaner. can it work?

Yes 21's will fit perfectly fine. PM me and I can get you really good pricing on 20/21" combo :tup:

I could use some help!

I am looking at a set of 20" Volk G2s... F20x10 and R20x11. What would be the ideal offsets for these? What size tires?

Options on the 20x10 are 40mm, 35mm, 30mm, 20mm

Options on the 20x11 are only 15mm

The fronts with a +20mm will work, but the +30 would be easier. THe rears are perfect with the +15.

Thanks Chris!

Just so I know, why would the 30 be easier?

+30 gives you a little more room for tires. Say for instance you went +20 it would be aggressive and on a stock cambered car you could only fit a 255 or smaller up front with out rubbing*. (*depending on your ride height) with a +30 you could easily fit a 265 tire :)

it really comes down to what you want and if you plan on running coilovers/springs or even plan on getting camber arms... Most people would say not to worry about those things and just get the safe fitment of +30. I look at it this way: If you are going to get coilovers and lower your car why not get the set that looks best. that way you dont have any regrets of not getting the most concave out of your volks...

The choice is yours if your staying close to stock I would recommend +30 but if your starting your mods and plan on working on the suspension then go +20 :tup:

Thanks Mike! Great response :)

I PM'd you back. I hope that helps you on your decision :tup:

Bullitt or Chris, I need your advice on a set of advans I'm buying. Advan RS with the GTR face, the fronts are 19x9.0, offset +29 or +22? Rears: 19x10.0, offset +25 or +15?

I would definitely do the +22 front and +15 years. This setup you are looking at has the fronts 2mm farther "out" than mine in the front.....and 4mm farther "in" on the rear.

I'm actually looking to go wider or spacers.

I'm not sure if you car is lowered or is going to be lowered? I assume so?

You might end up wanting spacers someday with the setup you are looking at. But you'll definitely want the ones with the lower offset.

Jon 19x10 all four +15.

Dooetttt

Chris

19x9.5
19x10.5
+0 offset

Lowering on Swifts..1.5 front 1.0 rear. Factory Camber.

Judging from what I have read this is to aggressive? What do you guys think and if it can be done what would be the right tire size. I am thinking it would need a stretch.

I think the fronts would clear with no stretch. Even a stock 245/40 would work...stretched a little but its what comes on the nismo. I think a 265/35 would also clear fine. The rear is a bit aggressive and is about 2.5mm farther out than nismo wheels with 20mm spacers. But a stock nismo 285/35 might worth fine back there if you have maybe -2 camber or more. This is all just a guess based on what I have seen so far in pics.....no experience to back this up.

Thanks for the heads up. I looked at the nismos with 20mm spacer and they do look a bit funny but then again the car was not lowered. I found this thread in the link below and if I am doing this right the wheels I am asking about should be 13mm inward compared to the the ones in the link correct? If that is the case I would think that I would have no issues with a drop on the swifts since I would have 13mm to play with depending on the sidewall size I run. The rear as of right now would be lets say 285/35/19 and the front would be 245/40/19 ideally.

First of all that is medium to mild for the rear... We have guys running 11+0 and 12+0 for the rear. Now the front is a different story... 9.5 +15 is where you need to be at anything lower and you will need camber arms. I have done 9.5 +15 and scraped on really hard dips on a 255. I am currently on 10 +15 on 255 and have no problems but I also have camber arms.

Keeping stock camber is not going to happen with most setups. I know a lot of people want stock camber but honestly... Why? Adding camber front and rear is going to increase your turn in response... so all in all stick with a 9.5 +15 or 10 +22 in the front and you should be good :tup:

*EDIT* I see you went to a 245 that made it fit :tup: looks good!

Thanks for the help. I don’t mind some camber...just don’t want my car looking ridiculous. I know the front will fit with a 245/30/19 for sure. I want to go to 245/40/19 just so that it is sized properly to the rears which I want to be a 285/35/19. The rears were the ones that I was worried about but from what you have said it seems that it should not be an issue as long as I am not super low or anything.

What about a 9" front on 255/35 or 245/40? If I add spacers to get to the equivalent of a 9.5" +15 with either of these tires will I have issues? My tires would not be as stretched because my front rims are 0.5" narrower.

When you scrape on big bumps do you mean just the plastic liner or the fender itself?
