Those are decent sized offsets. On a 370z, 19x9.5 +20 and 19x11 +15 is nearly flush running a 245/40 and 305/30.

What size tires are you planning on running?
don't you think a 60mm difference would throw it off too much?

I thought the goal was to try and stay within factory specs of 30mm and too big of a difference would induce more understeer?

9.5's he can run wider to stay with the 305s. i'm running 265/305 on stock sport rays currently.

You're referring to the 30mm factory rear offset correct? Going from a 10" to an 11" rear wheel, the offset should be adjusted from 30mm to 15mm.

no the tire sizes you mentioned.

going to 60mm difference in width will most likely throw more understeer into the equation.

Stock is 245/40R19 and 275/35R19 on a 370z. I suggested for his wheel widths that he run a 245/40/R19 and 305/30/R19 (or larger rear).

That's the same width for the front and a 30mm width increase for the rear.

That's the tires I already have.

After speaking to a few people, the tires are stretched in the at photo running -5 offset in the rear.

+22 front, and +38 rear is the best I can get without rubbing or stretching from what Ravspec is claiming.
