Flush would be 9.5 +15 to +22
Flush for rear would be 10.5 +12 to +0

Quick tidbit of info. The lower the number the more it will poke out. If it goes into the negatives it will become an even more aggressive offset. It also has to do with the width for instance a

10.5 width +0 offset would be equivelent to an 11 width +6 offset.


Does that help at all? if so give me some REP
Sweet that's what I was thinking but the more I read this thread the less confident I got.

rep +1

I recently sold my G35 and am excited about buying a 370Z. I kept my Volk SF Winning wheels (19x9.5 +19 front and 19x10.5 +17 rear) and would like to know if they will fit. It sounds like I will be fine in the rear (might need a 5mm spacer to be flush), but will I be ok in the front? The tires are Falken FK-452 (245/35 front and 275/35 rear). Does it matter if I buy with the Sport package or not (clearance on brake calipers)?

Hey guys I went ahead and ordered SSR SP3's in Machine silver with a polished lip. I got 19x9.5 +25 and 19x11 +11. Will I be able to run stock camber with this setup? Im gonna do 275/35/19 and 305/30/19 for tires. Thanks for your time guys!

Awesome choice in wheels, and yes you won't have any trouble running stock alignment with this setup as long as you don't go too low. But why the horrible tire sizes? Those won't fit and will look like crap. 245/40/19 front and 285/35/19 rear would be optimal, maybe a bit larger at 255/295 but that's it.

The 275 & 305 will look fantastic and fit perfectly, the Z34 has a bit more room for tire fitment with some running 325 in the rear.
