Wheel Offset Discussion Thread... How far can we go?

Kayzee · 04-10-2013, 01:59 PM

A little help please,

Front 20X10 +15
Rear 20X11 +15

I am lowered on swifts.

a) Does this clear the sport brakes?
b) If no, what size spacer do I need to use to make it clear?
c) what size spacer would i need to make it flush? For both rear and front.
d) what size tire would work well? I hate the beefy look and prefer a low profile... So a little bit of stretch.

Thanks a lot for the input guys

Not sure what you are looking for, but in general, absolutely.

8.5 for the front seems a bit narrow, most people at least go with 9 or 9.5, do you plan on lowering your car at all? IMO your offsets are a little weak I would go with something a little more aggresive, but that my .02

MZ370Z · 04-23-2013, 08:54 PM

Thank you for the information...i will look into 9 or 9.5 for the front... I was not planning on lowering, at least not yet...

Anyone got pics with 20mm spacers in front and 25mm spacers in the back? That's what I wanna do for my Z.

Thanks for the quick response!

Where can I get these spacers with those sizes? Not familiar with spacers and the types of brands. So if you can post a link that would be great!

Hey guys, need some help. Wondering if I will have trouble fitting these specs with sport brakes..

19x10 -6 (high disc clear bbk)
19x11 -1

Not sure about what tire sizes I'd run at the moment.

Thanks in advance!

How wide of a tire can we get on the base oem 18 inch wheels. Through reading this thread i figured out the wheels are 8 and 9 wide. Will 275 40 18 be too big of tire for the stock 18 wheels?

pokeyl · 07-14-2013, 01:45 PM

After looking over the data, I'm looking at
10.5 +34 ---285/35-19 front
11.5 +35 --- 325/30-19 rear

Anyone running this NOW??

Camber is factor and the car is on HKS hypermax III lower 1.5" all around.

Stock Nismo
275/30-19 on 9.5x19 +25
325/30-19 on 12x19 +28

Thinking on going with the 295/35-19 on a 10.5x19. and 345/30-19 on 12x19. Unless I switch from the Mich PSS, and go with the Mich Sport Cups.
