Does anyone have any intel for this setup, does it rub, best tires for this setup, camber changes, etc? I juts bought a setup like this but haven't put them on yet... any help is appreciated

Mynamedoublem 10-03-2016 11:55 PM

Anyone running 18s ???

shadow85 10-05-2016 10:08 PM

Going to be buying my new wheels soon.

What offset do I need on front and rears if I want a nice aggressive look with no camber adjustment on

19x10 F
19x11 R

Or

20x10 F
20x11 R

Basically like the Z at the bottom of this page with the same wheels:

Vertini Wheels | Wheels | RF1.2

cooltoy 10-05-2016 11:22 PM

Are you lowered?

cooltoy 10-05-2016 11:35 PM

By the way the car you are pointing to is fitted with 20x9 +20 and 20x10.5 Vertini Dark Knights.

shadow85 10-06-2016 01:32 AM

Wow, are you saying on the Vertini RF1.2 product page they are showing pics of different model wheels??

And no I am not lowered at all yet. Completely stock 2015 Z atm.

I was deciding between these wheels and the Rohana RF1, possibly RF2. Which ever of the wheels will be lighter or give the best performance.

cooltoy 10-06-2016 09:56 AM

My bad, I was confused by the pictures in this thread. Same car, different wheels.

http://www.the370z.com/parts-sale-pr...k-knights.html

But I am pretty sure it is the same car. He was probably sponsored by Vertini or something. Maybe PM him and ask what the specs were on the RF's that he used in the photoshoot. My guess they would be similar to the ones he has on the DK's.

Da370z 11-02-2016 09:11 AM

Any feedback would be appreciated, looking to buy a wheel and tire package for the z next year, trying to get a nice flush look maybe very slightly aggressive, im looking at 19x9.5 +22 for the front and 19x10.5 +22 for the rear, im running a 20mm spacer in the rear to sit flush now so im assuming that will make it +2 in the rear which i think would be flush? im not sure. im running 18x8 +20 for the front and 18x9 +15 on the rear right now with the 20mm spacer, im also on eibach springs so im dropped about an inch, thanks in advance for any input

OptionZero 11-02-2016 04:27 PM

rears are way more aggressive than the fronts

throw your spacers away

buy some used te37's in the sizes that everybody runs that doesn't want to do any work
19x9.5 +22 front, 19x10.5 +12 rear

Da370z 11-04-2016 09:29 AM

Nice! thanks for the feedback. and yes thats my goal is to get rid of the spacers completely, what size tires would you recommend? i was thinking 265/40 fronts and 295/35 in the rears

OptionZero 11-04-2016 01:57 PM

stock tire height is around 26.7 and 26.9 inches, so use a tire height calculator and get in that ballpark depending on whether you want 19 or 20's

Da370z 11-07-2016 01:06 PM

will do, thanks for the help!

OptionZero 01-14-2017 11:58 PM

We've come a long way since this thread started and folks thought 9.5 and 10.5 inches F/R were aggressive

Let's push the boundaries!

Yea I tried the wheels and the rears fit perfect.
The fronts hit the caliper just so slightly and poked out too much.

I sold em.

Still havent got any wheels for my Z :shakes head:

Way ahead of ya. 285/35/19 on 19x10 front and 325/30/19 on 19x11.5 rear. I have a while to wait though. Early Christmas present to myself. Not as aggressive as yours but they should be just right.

the next evolution . . . (kidding)

It is funny how 9.5/10.5 was aggressive and now it's just a regular nismo set up; folks using the nismo rears all around on the track no problem

hem 09-22-2017 06:44 PM

Hey guys was hoping you could help
I got a mate selling a set of 255 40 19 pilot super sport tyres cheap.
I've got a 2014 Nismo which runs 245 40 19 on the OEM rays wheels as standard. It's Lowered with kW v3 coilovers and spacers also Eibach camber kit. Can I run this wider tyre on the front? how much difference would it actually make?

You should have no problem. Many of us run 265 30 with 15 or 20mm spacers.

20x11 +15 front
20x12 +20 rear



I really want 19x11 FRONT 19x12 REAR with no tire stretch. I see your tires have a little stretch so I am curious will 11 and 12 fit without tire stretch? Stock height.

At stock height and with stock suspension settings Option Zero's setup wouldn't look anything like how it does now... Can you run them and add larger tires to square up the sidewalls? Yes. Would it look good? Most likely not.

Additionally, you'd need to have a 295 or wider tire (depending on brand) to not have any stretch on an 11, and a 315 or wider (again, depending on brand) for the 12.

OptionZero 01-13-2018 11:01 PM

stock height you'll be poking like mad
i'm at -3 F and -2 R camber.

No sense going up to 19x11 and 19x12 if you're gonna stay on stock suspension. Grab some SPL arms and coilovers and do it right

As for stretching

My 20x12 +20 rear with 315/25/20 has room to spare. Either a 5mm spacer or going up to a 325/25/20 is quite doable. The fenders are rolled and not pulled out at all, if needed, there is much further we could go

and OF COURSE, after I get my wheels, Rays releases some "bulletproof automotive exclusive" 20x12 +13 sizing for the GTR, which woulda been sick for my rears. Of course. ******* ****.

If you want less stretching, should do 20x10.5 +24 and 20x12 +20, 285/30 and 325/25. Basically the standard sizing for the GTR, you'll have face-4 concavity, much more rubber than stock, and it'll look badass

KamiSpeed 01-14-2018 10:52 AM

Listen to Option.

Those spec can fit at stock height, if you really want. But it will not look good at all. Will give you the "mexi-flush" fitment that a lot of people talk about online. Go with either 9.5 / 10.0 or 10.5 MAX in the front if you dont plan on lowering it.

A lot of Z guys to be safe run 19x9.5 Front 15-20ish offset / 19x10.5 - x11.0 rear with 15-20ish offset. Which looks great at stock height and with large tires lowered on springs or coilovers.

Nithmo 03-11-2018 05:38 PM

How would 19x9.5 ET22 and 19x10.5 ET20 look, with 265s and 285s, respectively? I feel like the front would be ok, but the rear might need like a 5mm spacer? Thoughts? Should I up the tire size? 275 and 295? 285 and 305? I'd like to keep the bias the same as oem.

I found some TE-37s in the above mentioned size, for $3500, asking. Not sure if I should jump on them, or not.

I'm on stock suspension now, but will look to going with some Ark lowering springs, in due time.

barncobob 03-11-2018 08:22 PM

5mm last i looked was less than 1/4"..can 1/4 inch spacer really make a difference in looks.

Fronts are easy. 19x9.5 +22 is the standard TE37 fitment that everyone uses without any work, on 265's

19x10.5 will look like ***. The STOCK NISMO is 19x10.5 +23 with 285/35, so google any stock Nismo and you can see how sunk it is

The standard fitment of TE37 19x10.5 +12 is better, but still sunk a bit

Something like 19x10.5 +0 is what you need to be flush, but then you need more aggressive fronts too and probably m0@r low

Anyways, i would look for a different set that comes in 19x9.5 +22/19x10.5 +12 and throw a small spacer in the rear if you HAVE to go that route. Will work with 265/305

russw007 06-03-2018 04:46 PM

i thinking about getting TSW watkins black 19x9 +20 and 19x10 +25. will the fronts poke out to much?

Zerafian 06-06-2018 07:22 PM

Ill have more pics after the little photoshoot with a friend in July...but here are a couple I took this evening.

Work XSA04c 20/10" +10 20/11.5" +15. Rear fender measure 26.25" from the ground and the front is just about the same, maybe 26.5".

Camber, Im not sure of just yet. I leave for vacation tomorrow so the alignment wont happen for about 10 days. Obviously not taking the Z. I will be increasing on the front to stop the rubbing and I will probably go to -3 to -3.5 in the rear to possibly toss a 10mm spacer in the rear.

DrayZ 08-11-2019 08:19 AM

its been a over a year, figured i would dig it up... a lot of great info on this thread. Ive finally narrowed it down the wheel now need to get to the offset. there are 2 options ive seen being ran on multiple 370z's. Right now its stock suspension but i do plan on lowering on springs soon.

19x9.5 22
19x11 15

or

19x9.5 15
19x11 22

OptionZero 08-11-2019 10:18 AM

First option is better

OptionZero 08-11-2019 03:20 PM

For reference, the stock Nismo rear is 19x10.5 +23 w/ a 285/35 tire.

https://cnet2.cbsistatic.com/img/FO4...ismo-00596.jpg

It is pretty sunk and looks terrible, and will get worse when you lower the car.

The 19x11 +22 is around 7mm better, which is not much better at all. You can go pretty much as low an offset as possible in the rear since there is massive space back there.

Track folks are running 11 or 10.5 inch rears with around +15 offset, so it is certainly functional

Fronts you CAN go much much better but that will require more effort, so a 19x9.5 +22 is safe and easy

When you want to step up your game, you'll be selling the whole set anyways

sza392 10-20-2019 09:20 PM

So I'm looking to pull the trigger on a set of Work T7R 2P. I've read through multiple threads and have a good idea on the spec I'm trying to run. It'll be my first set, so looking for opinions on if it would fit.

19x9.5 +20
19x11 +10
*A Disk (Deep Concave) on both F/R.

I'm sitting on swifts. No plans to go lower anytime soon, or camber arms.

From what I've been reading, seems like the rear is good. I have a base model, so no akebono calipers. I'm thinking the front should have clearance, but unsure.

What do you guys think?

What size tires and how much camber do you currently have?

sza392 10-21-2019 01:33 PM

For Tires, im looking at:

265/35/19
305/30/19

Don't know the camber angles. it's definitely more than stock since installing the springs, but i'd have to get it checked out for an actual number. Unless there's an easy way to check this at home.
