So, I should have paid more attention to what the different tire sizes were offered and it looks like now, using Advan AD08, I can run a 265/35 F and 295/30 R with 18x9.5 et27 F and 18x10.5 et30 R. The front should be sunken in a little more then my original plan since I am going with a 265 tire instead of a 275 but everything will clear. Will this set up mess with VDC? The rears are showing a 5.2% difference (slower) then stock. I cant find a 295 rear with a 35 sidewall although the Hankook Rs3 has a 285/18/35 and that is 3% slower. It will look even more sunken in though so I will probably need a 15mm spacer even more to make it look right with the front. The size calculator says the rears will stick out 5mm farther then stock and the fronts 36mm. I am not concerned about flush, just making sure it is even and doesn't look weird. I am planning on going with swifts too if that makes a difference.

Hi guys i'm planning on getting a set of varrstoen es 1.1.2, i'm lowered on H&R spring. I wanted to go for a semi aggressive look and i was wondering how would 19x11.0 all around with +0 in the rear and +15 in the front look like?

With hundreds of posts in the thread, I'm sure it has all been here dozens of times already. Still, hopefully this repeated information is helpful to some new'ish folks like myself.

After absorbing all the fuzzy numbers in the thread, it looks like my subjective ideal is F19x10 +15 and R19x11 +5. I'm hoping it doesn't stick out too aggressively, but definitely not the sunken in look. Maybe it'll be the neutral flush look?

That said, I wanted to be able to convert that subjective ideal to other widths/offsets.

I can do the math, but ended up using this tool that automates the calculation.

I'd like to avoid spacers but realize they tweak the math so if I'm set on getting wheels that are out of my offset sweet zone, I can do that.

I also wanted a square look for the tires. This tool shows how square, fat, or stretched tires will look.

While I had already been looking at Advan, Forgestar, HRE and Volk, I figured that I'd get to know the geometries a little better before making a big investment.

Finally, some LOLS. At first cjr1881's response didn't make sense to me. But, I was researching something else, FI 18" CF CBE, and I ran across this gem. Ok, I get it, LOLS.

I just ordered Nitto NT 555 245/45 f and 275/40 for the rear on stock 18 wheels. Is that a good set up and will it change the ride a lot?

Looking to pick up a set of used Vossen VVSCV3 20x9 +20 in the front and 20x10.5 +25 in the rear mounted on Nitto N555 tires. Any feedback on how they would fit on a 2012 370z w/ sport package? They were previously on a 350z. Thank you for the help guys!

Would a set of spacers fix that?

Your going to want about a 10-15mm spacer on that.

What tires are ideal for 20x9.5 and 20x10.5 wheels? Thank you for your time guys! I am thinking of getting BBS wheels. (I'm not going to tell you which ones)

Thoughts on Tires...
 
Hi everyone – I am sure the question has been answered before but one more time:

I have a 2010 370z (FangLady Z) Touring Coupe with the Sport package RAYS - again that’s:
19 x 9J (front)
19 x 10J (rear)

I want to keep everything stock, but would like some beefier tires. I don’t want it to look weird and I really like the squared look. BTW -the factory tires are junk – piss poor grip. I had to vent!

I am going to go with the Michelin Pilot Super Sport.

Thoughts gentlemen? I appreciate the advice!

theDreamer 11-21-2012 09:28 AM

19x10 +22 & 19x11 +25

Would a 5mm or 10mm be better in the rear? Lowered on Tein Monoflex with close to stock camber.

I'd suggest a 15mm or 20mm spacer.

This is a 19"x11" +9

This was when the offset was +24

Hmmm....well then.

johncy2000 11-21-2012 03:11 PM

Should I go 255/35/19 or 275/35/19 with a 19x10 will for the front? I have 305/30/19 for the rear for a 19x11 wheel.

Run a 275/35/19 up front...unless you're looking to be stretched. I was pretty low on a 19x10+26 with 275/35/19 up front. I only rubbed on the upper wheel well liner tab on hard bumps (not a big deal).

I'd go with a 15mm spacer as well. I'm running 19x10 +0, which is the same outer clearance as a 19x11 +13 approximately. Stock camber. Lowered on KWV3. Pretty good clearance I'd say.

Thank you so much man. I am going 305s in the back on a 19x11 wheel. Is that stretched? If it is then, I may as well go 255/35/19 in the front instead of 275s.

You're welcome. Nope. The 2 pictures I posted above are a 305/30/19 on an 11" wheel.

daisuke149 11-22-2012 12:07 PM

for anyone lookin for wheels, vividracing has some g12's for sale. one set left. 20x10 and 20x12. Perfect offsets for a Z to run WIDE Tires.

you can fit a 325 and 285 on that set running oem camber!
hhes got one set left i believe!

It's better now, but the main problem is they are hitting the bracket where the edge of the fender is bolted to the front bumper located at about the red square in the pic. I hit it with the dremel and reduced the amount it protrudes, and it's better, but still rubs over a decent road imperfection. The rears are fine and have a 1" spacer with 285's. The fronts have 245/40/19's

I don't really want to run a lower profile tire as "feeling" the road is already at its threshold. If absolutely necessary, I'd do it. Here's what I'm thinking:

Machine inside of wheel to remove a few mm and machine rotor surface to remove a few mm. Hopefully, that would give me the offset to eliminate rubbing.

Your thoughts, alternate solutions, and opinions are appreciated.:tup:

In this next pic, you can see the bit of stretch the fronts have now with the 245/40/19's with the 9.5" wheels:
http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/b...ger/photo3.jpg

I have the same setup up front. But with -2.05 camber, Eibach Springs and 245/35 Toyo but with 7 A/T. No rubbing!
Whats ur setup?

SATX_NISMO 11-25-2012 05:11 PM

19" or 20" Help me decide please
 
So I've decided to upgrade my OE Nismo wheels on my 2012 Nismo. I'm currently stock height. I'm on the fence about going 19" or 20". I won't be Auto X it or tracking it, only street driven. I don't want any aggressive camber settings. If I go 19" I will drop with Swift springs before wheel and tires are installed. If decide to go 20" I may still drop with the Swift springs but not till after wheels and tires are installed to see how it comes out. I want wheels/tires to be flush as possible with fenders without any modifications. I also want to run the widest tires as possible and don't want the stretch tire look. Probably will be running Hankook V12 tires. So what do you guys recommend running in a 19" and 20" setup? Thanks...!!

what i said above.

I'm old school bro, you have anything with a lip. Maybe a step lip. Those wheels are sure nice though. You can take it to PM for pricing if need be. Thanks..!!

I dont sell wheels. I just know that those offsets will work really well.

If you go custom wheels, you could just do the same offsets. Altho design will also matter when your talking about clearing the brakes.

my old wheels tho:

20x10 + 27 and 20x12 + 20.

SATX_NISMO 11-25-2012 05:45 PM

Ah ok, Man that Z is sick..!! Very aggresive looking but clean. Exactly what I want. Love the wheel tire setup. So I see you have camber arms and coilovers. Any suspension upgrades needed to run that setup? I know you mentioned stock camber specs.

i had the arms. but didnt need em.

threw those on and went.

They poked a lil at stock height, but never rubbed. Under compression they would end up tucking in perfectly.

when lowered the car .5" they sat really nice.

Stock height Nismo with 9.5x19, +25. 12x19, +28. Tires are Mich PSS 275/35-19 and 325/30-19. Nothing rubs, nothing sticks out. :D

SATX_NISMO 11-25-2012 07:20 PM

Thanks, Z looks great. I'm assuming with the Swift drop the tires will rub up front?

Will 285 in the rear and 265's in the front on the stock 18's be ok? Im pretty sure they will i just need some reassurane. Im stock as far suspension for now, but im planning on getting HR springs and changing my wheels in the near future.

285's say a minimum wheel width it should be on is 9.5" and the 265's minimum of a 8.5" wheel which are both 1/2" wider then the base 18's. Will it fit? Yes. Will it feel sloppy? Yes. The tire is basically going to bubble more then it should so its gonna have some extra slack.
