Default Which is a better Track Setup?

I'm doing some research on my next set of wheels, I've been doing a lot of HW looking on the web but the more I find the more confused I got.

Which do you guys think is better or works well with our 370z?

1) F: 18x9.5 & R: 18x10.5 (Stagger)
2) F&R: 18x9.5 (Square Setup)
3) F&R: 18x10.5 (Square Setup) <---I'm thinking of going with

Please feel free to post your setup (Spacers, Offset, Camber, Tires, Tire Size, Wheel Weight, etc) and the advantages/disadvantages. Thanks!

I am thinking of going with

F&R: 18x10.5
Hankook RS-3 285s all around, but currently I'm still research what wheels are available.

There's so many factors that's making it hard for me to choose:
Proper Camber, Offset & least amt of Spacers possible and light weight wheels under $2K.

I've seen some people claim 18x9.5 with 265 all around. Is that true?

Right now I'm kinda unsure of anything, which is why I'd like to go as wide as possible. 18x10.5 with 285.

I put it in your other thread, but I run Hoosier 295/40=18 on a 9.5" rim.
I would go 9.5 or 10, I dont think you need anything wider for the width of tires we can use.
scruffydog and chrischhorn like this.
