Wow look at that camber though up front lol.

forza370z · 02-26-2014, 10:08 PM

I've made my mind. I will go with 19x9.5 +17 up front coz I might run them on stock height for a while. +5 will poke out too much. I will just add spacers when I lower my car.

Thanks for the inputs!

synolimit · 02-26-2014, 10:15 PM

I'm +25 and poke 1/4". I hate it!

I had 19x9.5+18 on my SSR MS3. It might look good on stock height, just a heads up though, once you go lower, you will have to shave your bumper mounts and camber in a little bit, and also roll the fender. I did all three plus a fender pull - I'm sitting on H&R springs. I can text you pics or post one later. The offset can make the tires look like balloons when not setup correctly.

Hmm... Interesting. So how much camber you ran? And what tire size you had? What is shaving bumper mounts? I thought the front fenders are factory rolled you only can pull them. I didn't know you have to do that. 19x9.5 +18 is like stock wheels adding 20mm spacers. I didn't know it's gonna be that aggressive. I don't mind to run some negative cambers as long as it's not -3.0+ or something.

Like this guy is running 19x9.5 +17 and lowered pretty much like those H&R springs can do. It doesn't look aggressive tho. The guy told me he has no issues.

I can already see he went with more camber. I had negative 2 on mine with stock arms. The pic you had he prolly had an adjustable arm and went more than neg 2. More than neg 2 is rich for my blood, lol I cant buy tires every few months!

P.S. I noticed he has stretched tires too, it will lower the chance of rubbing but this is a performance car, it needs some tire beef!

The front left and right has areas where your bumper screws on. This will require shaving if you have a tire size of 265/35/19 or higher since it will cut and rub your tires just like it did on mine, hence folks will tell you to keep front offset up to +22 since it's perfectly just flush without rubbing issues. The rear fenders are rolled from factory, but not the front. What I'm trying to say is if you plan to lower your car in the long run, might as well get the right wheels instead of buying multiple sets unless you have deep pockets lol.

Check your math. That's like adding a 35mm spacer to stock wheel.

Gotcha! My z is not my DD. It's my weekend car. I usually bring it to car show or car event. So I don't really mind running some negative camber as long as it's not stupid. I am planning to run the stock 245x19x35 up front. I guess I will survive. Thanks for the heads up bro!
