What did you do with your Z today IV

gurneyeagle · 06-21-2012, 03:17 PM

For fear of being put on the ignore list, I respectfully ask for your help.

Right now I am running stock Nismo rims with 10mm spacers. A set of Avante Garde rims is up for sale in Houston in the following sizes:

Front = 19x9.5 +18

Rear = 19x11 +20

How do those offsets compare to the stock Nismo rims? I'd like to have the same amount of stance without the spacers; will this offset accomplish that?

I know you talked about this before, but I was a deer in the headlights.

Thanks in advance.

Someone just got their headlights done and had the reflector and (I think) the landing strip done in carbon. Do you know what pic I'm talking about? Rep for the person who points me to it.

Also, does anyone have one of these: ZSpeed Performance Aluminum Engine Splash Shield 370Z Nissan
and how do you like it? Or don't like it?

It was Tibal. Here's the linky to the post:

I believe the nismo stock offsets are +40 on the front and +23 on the rear. Looks like those should be about right in the front, but would need a spacer in the rear to keep the same front to back relationship you had before.

Anyone, if I am talking out of my a$$, please rectify the situation

*edit* Just noticed the rears are 19x11 (instead of stock nismo 19x10.5). I think this means you should have a pretty similar stance without the spacers. But don't take my word for it, I'm still fairly inexperienced when it comes to all of these wheel and tire details. And btw those wheels are damn sexy!

Just got word that Honduh is fixing the car under warranty.

Service advisor told me that next time if something like this happens don't touch the car. They said that they could tell that I got into the door to poke around and see if I could fix it. He said Honda is strict and when they inspect the part they would usually deny the warranty claim since the customer tried to mess with it. He said they are just going to say that they did it.

I really need to bone up on the whole offset thing. It's been explained a number of times, and I understand the basics...but I always have to scratch my head and think real hard.

Yeah, that wheel is hot!

Doing OK. Work is a bit slow today, but we all need a bit of rest after last week.
