Yea I wanted pss's again I really liked my last set but I'm in need now lol so re-11s were my second choice regardless of price.

Once they are on I'll see if I feel spacers are the way to go. Ill post pics as well

Harrisburg is about 3-4hours from me depending in how you drive lol

Yes you can fit a 305x35x18 on the rears, no rubbing and no spacers needed.

Sup Guys, Gonna be picking up SSR GTV03 19x9.5+20 (Fronts) & 19x.10.5+15 (Rears).

For the rears I will be going with the 305/30/19 MPSS. But for the fronts I don't know yet. Will 275/35/19 MPSS fit in the front without any issues?

2012 Base 370Z with stock heights.

THANKS!

Guys, hate to have to ask this but my wheels were just stolen the other day. I found somebody local willing to lend me their 350z touring wheels for the time being. I have the sport brakes with 20/25 spacers so I need to confirm it will clear the brakes.

The specs of the 350z touring wheels:
Front
Size: 18x8.0
Offset: +30mm
Weight: 24.4
Tire: 225/45/18

Rear
Size: 18x8.5
Offset: +33mm
Weight: 25.8
Tire: 245/45/18

Thanks!

If you are planning on lowering it I would stick with 265 unless you like to be out of spec on the camber.

kentstuh 04-23-2014 06:24 PM

Yes I am planning on getting swifts. But the rear 305/30 is fine right?

Should be no problem.

ChipsWithDips 05-01-2014 09:40 PM

I have a base model that has been upgraded to sport brakes, so if a setup I'm looking at fits on a sport model I should be good right? No difference in the fenders or anything like that between base and sport?

My goal is a reasonably priced wheel setup that is as light as possible, and quite a bit more rubber on the ground than this base model setup. I was originally wanting RPF1s but I'm now thinking Forgestars instead.
So the plan is 18x10 +34 Forgestar F14 all around, based on what "Mike" has posted in another thread.

Tires would be 285/35 Continental Extremecontact DW

Just looking for a sanity check before I go for this.

GURJEEZY 05-02-2014 10:51 AM

I am about to order some work wheels, I can specify exact offsets...

I have a 11' touring with sport package.

I am at stock height and will be staying at stock height because of the roads around where I live.

Will these fit and how will these look at stock height? Will it be flush with the top part of fenders width wise? I am not worried about fender gap.

Front - 19x9.5 +33 (255/35/19)

Rear - 19x11 +18 (305/30/19)

SoLif3Lik3 05-03-2014 07:32 PM

Front:

20x10.5 +25

Dropped on ARK GT-F springs.

Too aggressive or just right?

Looking to avoid rubbing and having to use a ton of negative camber.

Thanks

Your front wheels will be sunken into the fender where as the rear wheels will poke quite bit past the fender. You'll have to run spacers (don't recommend) for the front. I personally would pass on this setup.


R.K.

XPNSD IT 05-06-2014 09:05 PM

the fronts will fit pretty clean, close to the fender, widths are .5" wider and offset is almost 20mm more than stock fronts.

Actually fronts will be 25mm more than stock which might be a bit much. I think 20mm is the max most go on stock wheels.

kz34wa 05-13-2014 03:51 AM

Can I stay with 245/40 in the front and get 305/30 in the rear? or will i have to go wider in the front to match the tyre combo?

Hotrodz 05-13-2014 08:35 AM

Go wider at least 265/30!

from what i understand if you stagger them that much you will create oversteer.

someone else could chime in to confirm this.

Amuse370z 05-14-2014 12:38 AM

TE37SL 19x9.5+22f 19x10.5+12 dropped 1-1.5inch

Which tire size should I go with?
275/35 and 305/30, or 265/35 and 305/30...or something else all together?

Ire 05-14-2014 02:43 AM

you don't need 305s tbh
your rims are such that going too wide will not give noticeable performance gain over the difference in price.

I've since researched a lot on sizing and can safely say my GTs will fit given the tire choice.

carlitos_370z 05-14-2014 07:48 AM

Good am guys maybe someone can help me here... i can decide if go with 255/35/19 or 255/40/19 for the front on my sport wheels... im going with 285/35/19 for the rear... i want to know what is the best option for the front!!! maybe the answer its in this thread but i dont want to read all the 63 pages lool!!! i really appreciate your help :tup:

BTW if you need to know my car is dropped on Swift with SPC Rear camber arms.

Thanks!!!

Fienchen 05-14-2014 09:12 AM

The difference in price isn't too much. I just want proper sized tires for the wheels.

...and I really don't know what is considered "perfect".

josedlr1992 05-17-2014 12:00 AM

hey guys, i want to run 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 but i am not sure of the offset, my car is stock height and i was really looking in to getting the TE37SL but it looks like i will need to lower my car before those look nice on the Z any other recommendations on rims or offsets that i should be looking for in order to get clean look with these rims sizes, and also if possible what tires size would you guys recommend?

yeah, theres no "perfect" size.
if you're going for just looks, its just a matter of calculating sidewall number (width vs sidewall thickness) and making sure you get the look you want. if you want a little stretch, perfectly flat etc. It also matters how much of a drop you want, stiffness of suspension and the travel length of your suspension. To avoid having to type out an essay and a half I'm going to say sidewall calculators and rim fit calcs are very helpful but at the end of the day, fitment is personal

Looking at a set of set of Work VS TX.

http://www.the370z.com/parts-sale-pr...uper-rare.html
I pretty much am horrible with determining what offsets are needed to get flush.

The wheels are front: 19x11 et 16 and rears: 19x11 et 12.

I am looking for a flush look, no poke (at all). Does this get me close? Also, I am dropped on H&R springs (1.25 front, 1 rear). Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

gouda-buddh 05-29-2014 11:51 AM

So I have scoured the forums and yet I need help. Please be patient and let me know everything I should look out for!

So I have a brand new 2014 370z I bought recently. I found these rims/tires that I like. Will this fit?

20"

5 Bolt pattern 44.5 or 114.3

Lexani Black Label Rims

(2) 225/35zr20 93w XL
(1) 225/35zr20 90w Xl
(1) 225/35r20 90v

Btw, these are used rims/tires I found on craigslist. What should I look for when I purchase them? Pointers? Just anything really!

Thanks!

No don't do it, Lexani's on a Z!?

But you only gave tire specs (which btw are super small)

Bolt pattern is correct at 114.3 5 Bolt.

What you need is offset/width of wheel, but by looking at that probably 8.5" width.

Just for reference OEM Front on Sport are 9x19 -47 / Rear 10x19 -30

Can you help me out why not lexani? Too heavy? What brands would you suggest then?

Also what width/offset do you suggest? Is 20" too big? Should I stick with 19"?

Thanks

lexani wheels.....on a Z.


:facepalm:

hopefully it's something a bit sporty and not just blingy chrome 20's designed for an SUV

Lol, sorry guys. I liked it. I am still trying to learn the ropes. Please don't shoot!

What brands do you guys suggest I look at?

Weird, my posts are disappearing.

Lol, I think they look nice and sporty. Definitely not chrome. Check em out:

Lexani R-Five Black

It looks nice. Right?

What brands would you guys suggest I look at then?

Thanks in advance!

nice concave look on those. not bad at all.

actually to be honest i was just busting balls since lexani was started with big ugly massive SUV wheels (i owned a set on a previous tahoe i owned lol) but now looking through there stuff it's not bad with some of the sporty selections. lots of concaves and forged pieces.

i'm happy to see other brands finally other than TE-37's which everyone and their mother with a Z has now. they are nice, clean ,simple but everyone has them. not my style.

Thanks!

I am trying to get the offset/width of the wheel, but the seller doesn't know. How can she find out? Is there a model number on the rim she can look at? How can I instruct her to find the width/offset?

Thanks

first off lexani's site blows donkey balls and nothing is opening right. howerever that may be because im at work with friewalls and interesting settings.

according to one site i checked they come in 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 10 so either youll be at a big staggered set or squared.

also there are 2 versions of each of the wheels. there is a high and low offset option. i think you need to do more research on what this person is actually selling or just go buy from a actual wheel shop/site and get proper fitment.

the offsets listed for the 20 x 10 is +20 and +42
the offsets listed for the 20 x 8.5 is +15 and +38

both come in 5x114.3 bolt pattern which is what the Z has.

1. Is big staggered set better than squared?

2. She is trying to find out for me. How can she find out the offset and width? Is there a model number she can look at? Anything?

Once again, thanks for the help!
