18's on a 370z

Memphis370Z · 11-29-2015, 06:32 PM

Alright, guys. I've read myself in to a stupor trying to figure out what offsets to get and am asking the group to weigh in with their thoughts. I've read, and read, and read myself in to an offset coma. Please, help a brother out.

I'm looking at 18" SSR GTV02s and I've settled on 9.5" for the front and 10.5" in for the rear. I made notes while reading through this thread, as well as others, and I think I should go with a 35mm offset in the front (22mm is also an option) and a 15mm offset in the rear. I am on Swift springs, with SPL rear camber arms and lock out bolts. I would like to be near flush. No poke at all. Will these offsets get me what I'm looking for?

Also, regarding tires, I'm considering 245/45 in the front and 275/40 in the rear, as these sizes would keep the overall diameter close to stock, as well as the sidewall height. I'd like to go wider, especially in the rear, but then it just starts throwing things out of whack. Thoughts?

All that noted, I really appreciate anyone sharing their advice and feedback. I'd like to go ahead and make my purchase soon.
