Varrstoen es 2.2.2.
 
Alright so I've been looking around at the volk TE37 and varrstoen's version- the ES2's. I've looked at the "will it fit thread" and the "meatty thread" but I still can't figure out exactly what wheels to choose. I want to have the widest possible tire in the rear without rolling or cutting fenders. Can I go wider than the usual (F)19x9.5+22 265/35/19 (R)19x10.5+12 305/30/19?

I'm thinking (R)19x11+15 315/30/19...

Reason for changing my wheels :
1: I'm planning on going forced induction so I would like to have more grip.
2: I desperately want to change the wheels that my car has right now. They are Ruff Racing wheels that were on the car when I purchased it and the only good thing about them is that I got the dealership to drop on the price because of them :ugh2:

The 370z has much more room than the old 350z. If you read the will it fit and how far can we go threads I have posted several times the ranges in size and offset that most people get and also what aggressive fitments with out fender modifications.

In the rear you can run the 11+0 or the 11+15 with no problems.

I'm running 9.5x19, +25 front and 12x19, +28 on the rear. Mich PSS 275/35-19 and 325/30-19. But I'm at stock height.

Given that, I haven't seen anyone running that size.

I have read these threads and trust me i thought i could go wider too but I called varrstoen themselves and they said there was no way I was going to go with an 11" in the rear without rolling fenders. Its the only reason i made the thread to get info from people that have already done it and have no rubbing issues.

WOW 325! I'm stock height as well, you're saying if you were to lower it on springs or coils you would be rubbing? even though it would have some negative camber from lowering it?

bullit, if I get the 19x11+15 what is the widest tire I can run with it? Will it still be the 305?

Rusty 10-13-2012 08:39 AM

I'm just giving you an idea of what is possible. I got plenty of clearance.

Thats awesome man but I don't think Varrstoen makes 12" wide wheels the most they have is 11"

MIGHTYMOUSE 10-17-2012 06:16 PM

Will it rub if i get a 265/30/19 on a 19x9.5 +22 up front?
stock height and camber.

I was running a 19"x11"+4 in the rear with a 305/30/19 and I never rubbed. I was lowered on H&R springs, which dropped the car pretty low. The rear never rubbed. With a 11"+15, you can fit a 315 or 325 depending on your camber and ride height.

Apparently they dont know the 370z platform very well as our fenders are pre rolled from the factory in the rear... I ran 12+0 with 305s and camber.

Finally went with the Varrstoen's ES2 matt black 19x9.5 +22 265/35/19 (front) and 19x11 +15 305/30/19 (rear). Wrapped with some Bridgestone Potenza RE-11.

What do you guys think?

jay9 10-26-2012 11:09 PM

Looks great mate, makes me think of the same setup for myself

bullitt5897 10-27-2012 12:26 AM

Looks really good!

kensin0429 11-18-2012 05:08 PM

Yea stock height but I think I want to lower it with swift springs after the holidays. The alignment within stock specs as well I actually had the back have a little less negative camber so I can wear the tires more evenly

kensin0429 11-21-2012 12:39 PM

Just hit me it won't work cause my sport brakes

jpritche 11-21-2012 12:41 PM

I think they might rub up front I'm not entirely sure I think most people with the te37 run the same setup up front and have no issues with a 10mm spacer. The rear would definitely clear the big brakes. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Red_Z 11-21-2012 03:31 PM

MIGHTMOUSE: Can you pm me with info of where u got the wheels? I dont think vendors here sell those...thx!!

EVOHUNTER 11-21-2012 04:31 PM

they varrs in +22 wont fit the front, u need a 7mm spacer, and they stick on 3/4's of a inch in the front, when lowered on h&r's. looks stupid.
We found this out the hard way lol. They said they would fit but they DO NOT fit, 120% sure. we ordered a set for a customer at my shop.
They clearly hit the caliper. I ordered them for JMAC, hes on the forum. Talk to him, he was there when we test fitted them.

what size wheels did he have? and camber?

EVOHUNTER 11-22-2012 01:56 PM

19X9.5 +22 AND 19X11 +19.. I think it was +19
he has 305/30R19 and 245/35R front. Camber in front is stock.
rear wheels fit perfect at stock camber. Lowered about 1.5 -1.75 inchs.

Great choice !:tup:

skosmc 11-28-2012 04:59 PM

Wow. these look great.

LMBmikeZ 11-28-2012 10:31 PM

Looks good! But when you do the drop be careful backing in like you did in the one pic (it is also your avatar pic) you will definitely F'up the tips on that nice exhaust you have there :tup: looks good though other wise!

I'm very careful about it now even without the drop I think I could hit curbs backing up! right now the tips wouldnt hit but the cans would get all scratched up. I ended up ordering the same wheels for my hyundai genesis since I saved so much on this purchase.
Thanks for the complements! :tup:

how did you get the 11" wide wheels? all i can find are 10.5 and they all have a +12 offset

cooltoy 02-10-2017 06:41 PM

2012.

If you have sport brakes, the 9.5+12 Front
and 10.5+12 Rear, will clear without the need of spacers.
