He is running 20x10.5 +20 with a 255/35 tire. Eibach springs and no fender mods.

Your wheel is only 2mm more inboard, you should be fine (assuming it has a face design that clears brakes. betting you're looking at a Te37 variant?)

Another tire size that could work with that is 275/30 but may require camber/fender roll depending on height

I am running 20x11 +15 with a 275/30. 3 deg camber and fender rolled. No rubbing.

Your setup looks badass!

I'm heavily looking into running a square setup as well but track oriented. Goal was to run 285/30 tires but no sticky brands manufacture(RS4, Re71, RE11) that size so I've gone up to 285/35/19. I had planned to do metal custom front fenders and run 18x11+18 but since have decided against it and am going 19's with Varis front fenders. I'm not so concerned about rubbing the fenders but the bumper where it meets the fenders. My bracket is completely deleted and relocated which I previously ran 20x10+10 with 255/30 and - 2.4 degrees of camber all around.

As of right now I think I'm going 19x10.5+22 Sq with 275/35. Tomorrow I have a buddy brining his 285/35 Nismo rear to test fit one last time to see it will work or not.

Thanks for all the input, your car looks fantastic man!

19x10.5 +22 and 275/35/19 is gonna be fine clearance wise.

Appearance wise its gonna be sunk as heck in the rear, but for track setup who cares

OTOH, alot of the track guys seem to be running 285 and 295 - slightly larger sizes, but on 18in diameter wheels

are there no affordable tires in greater widths? thats the bad part about the Z - tires are EXPENSIVE!

on my 240 i could get a full set for under $600 in a variety of compounds, no hope for that here

EDIT:
N/M, saw you're running the Still radiCAL system. That rules out 18s, lol.

Thank you for that, bottom photo looks perfect. After test fitting my teammates Nismo rear with Supersport 285/35/19 looks like I'm ruling them out for the front. Def going down to a 275/35 if I go re71 or 275/30 if I go rs4's.

Actually te37 18's will clear with +22 (10.5). The barrel is very flat and is popular on bimmer setups. As for track tires, Hancook rs4, Bridgestone RE71 or RE11 are my #1's for tread rating for my 200+ classes, all in which suck for tire sizing options. I originally had planned to do 285/30 which none of them make which brought on this entire dilema

then you may need to go to an 18 wheel to get the better tire selection. Fortunately they're pretty cheap - stuff like the Enkei NT03 or RPF1 come in 18x10.5 +18 i believe and can fit a 285 tire but you'll have to check the barrel clearance for the brakes

lots of folks track on those wheels, so i believe in the quality

Yep, well aware, but neither will fit over AP Radi-Cal BBK's. TE37 is the only known 18" wheel that will clear, but I'm set on 19's vs 18's anyways. After testing this weekend I'm going 275/35 front with 285/35 rear for classing for Gridlife. For street I'll most likely do 275/35 front and a 305/30 rear

Jonathan! Just saw your posts in the FI thread. Please, email me directly if you ever have any questions, Lance@nextlevelperf.com

I would never have known you had a question if I hadn't brouses their thread randomly (I avoid due to conflict of interest, and Kevin/FI can handle most questions in there).

Your order # is PO#586. We are not provided with an "exhaust #" from them, its simply updated on their board when they post it up randomly.

Yep, I run Nt03's 10.5 +30 (might be 33) square with 15mm spacers in the rear with no problem. It is awesome to be able to rotate the tires and rims not have to remove the tires from the rims!

This was my ultimate goal at first was to run 10" +29 TE37...but I found out they don't clear my calipers w/ the AP Radi-Cal's, so then I went to 10.5_22 with the intentions to run square 285/30's with .... and then seeing they didn't make them, the 285/35 testing started which I just don't think I can pull off in the front. WELL, I could...if I raised the car a little... which we all know isn't an option in my book

Right on...I forgot you were running a big brake kit. LMAO and thumbs up for keeping her low for mo go! I raised mine up and I'm now 1" below stock. This allows me to run a taller tire if I want and I can open the driver's door over the fender on my trailer lol! I may still drop it another .5 to an inch because it does look way better and it's functional on the track.

Yes it has and I am in conversation with Seb about even more mods...tracking has me chasing another rabbit down the proverbial rabbit hole.

Yes it has! Looks even better in person!

It might be a dumb question but will I able to fit my new volks in their boxes inside the Z? I need to take them to a shop to swap tires.
