I agree. I was hoping the 285 would take up some of that space but if there's going to be rubbing on the inside then I'll have to go another route as the wheels I was looking at only come in the +40 offset front and I don't want to run a spacer.

grab one of those sets of used TE37's in the for sale section
forged 19x9.5 +22/19x10.2 +12 will fit easily you can fit a 275 in front if you want

I was hoping to find off the shelf but I'll probably have to end up going custom.

I might have to go with 19's as there are a lot more choices out there but I wanted to go with 20's as they would fill in the fender gap being that I have to stay close to stock ride height due to clearance issues in my driveway.

if you're using the wheel diameter to fill the wheel gap then you're doing it wrong
get some damn coilovers or air and do it right From your mod list it is apparent that budget isn't an issue Why would you dump that much money into your engine and go cheap on suspension? There's plenty of setups that will achieve better fitment, useability, and performance if you're willing to shell out the money. Good coilovers and air cups

Hi,
I made a Wheel calculator for cars. The car 370z is available but I don't have web hosting for it. Do you think this forum could host it, or someone on this forum have a website to host it ? Here is a preview image of the calculator for 370z. If you want to try it, the FRS/BRZ calculator is already hosted here : https://www.ft86motorsports.com/wheelitfit Thank you. |

It's the transition going from the access road into my carport. I can literally get my car high centered if I don't back out at the right angle. Ask me how I know. Nothing I can do about it unless I move and that ain't happening.

Thought about that but damn, they're expensive.

You spent the money to put out 650 hp
Spend the money to put it to the ground and get on your driveway

As long as I stay close to stock ride height I can get in and out just fine and the reason for my post was to try to find a wheel/tire combination to help put it to the ground. Lowering my car isn't going to do that.

Quick question
I've been scouring through the forums and so far it seems like a greenlight, but, I'm currently running 245/45 in the front and 275/40 in the back on my base 18" wheels, and planning on lowering on ARK GT-S springs and running 20mm spacers in the front and 25mm in the back until I buy new wheels down the road. Will it fit? Thanks in advance! |
