Did I go way to aggressive?
 
I ordered some Ray's Gramlight 57fxx, and now im wondering if the offset is too aggressive. I got 19x9.5 + 15(f) and 19x11 +18(r). Any thoughts? Also open to getting new tires, currently running pss in stock size (245-40-19/275-35-19). Thanks!

Think 305/30 rear will work with that offset fine,imo

Most go with a 20 offset in 19x9.5 fronts, only 5mm difference...

255 or 265/35 front tire should work out ok, imo

It depends on if you will lower your car or not. If stock, yes maybe too much.

this is how much it sticks out w stock suspension, and this is only 25 offset

Im currently lowered on powertrix coilovers, about 1.1 inches, planning on lowering it more if it will help the look :p, and thanks for the tire recommendation.

not even close to aggressive

depending on your tire size and height you may rub a bit

or

get some SPL front camber arms and you can run the rears in front

hell i'm running 20x11 +15 fronts with a 275/30/20, just to give you an idea of whats possible.

daveyyy 02-28-2017 06:01 PM

Alright, awesome. Yeah I have an spc rear camber kit at the moment, If I need to go lower, Im going to get a front kit for sure.

Don't waste your money on SPC

Do it once. Do it right. Get SPL

Full camber and caster adjustment, the best locking mechanism for your alignment guy to work on, high quality spherical joints that self-clean (one less rubber bushing).

Basically opens up a world of possibilities for fronts.

Rear of the Z has infinite room to fit anything already, really.

The front bumper tab is another point to look at for rubbing depending on height/tire size.

It's all about what you want your camber set at (-2F,-2R) etc...if you use an oem diameter tire-you're gonna have to lean that sucker on the front.
Not an expert on lot's of negative camber;but by looking at your wheel spec's...the front's are way more aggressive than your rear's.

you're fine. Although i normally recommend people to run 9.5 with low +20 in the front with a meaty tire but +15 will be fine.

9.5, 245 +15 with an inch drop should be pretty good. Assuming your -camber be around -1.0 or thereabouts? Will be aggressive but I certainly wouldn't say too much so.

Well, I currently have a small amount of camber, only have a rear camber kit. Still need to buy a bunch of things. I've had some people tell me that SPC is good enough, which is why i bought there rear spc, but some people say SPL only... but its also a good amount more. Any thoughts on that?

Thanks for the replies as well! :icon17:

A got tire fitment size for those wheel's are 275/35,325/30's (if you want the full sized rubber look). They are usually 26.6F,26.7R on diameter.
