Once again, thanks for the help!

Z comes staggered stock. but not as much as 8.5 and 10.

i dont for see it being bad but i'm not an expert to say if that is too much. i'd consult with someone with a bit more fittment knowledge first. i was just doing my best to help with initial information.

a tape measure should do the trick lol

So a little more info:

1. ET: 15
2. 20x8.5JJ

Does this help you guys? From my research ET is offset.

Thanks!!

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

:tiphat:

What brands do you guys suggest I look at?

I was looking at these but decided to go with Attachment 89376

Anyone know if these will fit with the sport brakes?

Enkie PF01
Front 18 x 9 45 offset
Rear 18 x 10.5 15 offset

jofro6 06-16-2014 06:11 PM

tried doing some searching thruogh this thread to see if they have already been brought up, but its tough with 65 pages lol

So im looking at 20x10 +15 and 20x12 +0 rims... im looking for something that won't poke at all, as i really hate that look. Will these fit on our car with no modification? Also, im on the stock base suspension so there is no drop or camber to take into account.

also might as well ask while im here, would 305s be too small for the back tire? dont want it stretched.

Thanks for the help in advance

GaleForce 08-02-2014 08:39 PM

My turn!!!! lol

This is what i'm looking at.

Fronts 19"x10.5 +22 with Toyo R888 265/35/19

Rear 19"x11 +15 with Toyo R888 305/30/19

I know the rears are no problem. I know the fronts will poke, I got that covered. What I want to know is, will the 265 look stretched on the 10.5" wheel?

He's a link for a few 350's with a 19x10.5---265/35/19 Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome - Page 217 - MY350Z.COM Forums

I just grabbed a pic, they have a few different pics and other z'z in there.

Yes a 265 will look really stretched on a 10.5" wide wheel. Normally a 295/305 goes on a 10.5" wheel.

KaienZ34 08-02-2014 08:59 PM

Seems to be popular for their rear setup... Opps that pic I posted above is 18x10.5 with a 265/35, but this one is 19x10.5 265/35.

The R888 goes from 265 to a 295/30/19. Speedo error of 2.88% from factory. Is this a big deal? I realize it's not the drive tires, would it cause an issue with anything else?

Edit, the 265 has a overall width of 10.7" why would this look stretched on a 10.5" wheel?

KaienZ34 08-02-2014 10:06 PM

Just me but the 255 on my 9.5" front wheel looks a bit stretched. The stock sport rears with a 275 on a 10" looked the same to me. Just my opinion and based only on looks. 9.5"=265, 10"=285, 10.5"=295/305, 11"=305/315

Yeah I have 255 PSS on a 9.5 front and they look stretched. Looks like I'l have to change my plans. New sizes will be,

Front - 265/35/19 on 9.5" wheel

Rear - 295/30/19 on 10.5" wheel

I may end up needing a spacer on the front. :shakes head:

The R888 run really wide as compared to other tire brands. I had a set of 295 Conti Sports on my supra and then bought a set of 315 Falken's and putting them side by side, the 295's were the same size.

I'm running
19x10.5 +12 and 19x9.5 +25
Michelin PSS
305/30 and 265x35

I'm on stock suspension

I can take some shots of different angles if want.

Car looks good! Thank you jdsto :tiphat:

Ok, here's another one...

Front

20x10 offset 25 with 275/30/20

Rear

20x10.5 offset 22 with 285/30/20

Thoughts?

skidad62 08-04-2014 10:45 PM

Wondering if I can get your input -

My current set up is -

Stock Sport Rays 19x 9/10
Stock suspension
Stock camber
20mm spacers up front and 25mm rear

I have a steep driveway and can't pull off swift springs - but would love to close off the wheel gap some when I go to new tires.

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...ps7709ebd9.jpg

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...psdb60e364.jpg

I was thinking of going with taller tires to help close the gap - and maybe a slight rake (but want to ensure the ABS and VDC are not thown off by the spread)

Stock is
245 40 19 26.7"
275 35 19 26.6"

Some options I'm considering are

Front
255 40 19 27.1"

Rear
295 35 19 27.1"
275 40 19 27.7"
285 40 19 28.0"

Fall back for the rear would be
285 35 19 26.9"

Love your thoughts - need to be sure they will clear with the 20/25 spacers and don't want to throw any codes on the ABS/VDC

skidad62 08-17-2014 01:47 PM

^ Anyone know how much differential in front to rear circumference that our ABS and VDC can tolerate?

Does 20mm poke in the front? Does 25 poke in the rear?

Nice Z i like that color on convertible

With that said... If getting aftermarket wheels and calculating the offset desired on an offset calculator with the sport package wheels as current setup, would it be wise to have the front extend 20mm outward and the rear 25mm outward with upping the rim width size?

Short answer is no

Sport wheels are 19 x 9 fronts and +47mm offset so net of 20mm spacers is +27

Rears are 19 x 10 with +30mm offset so net of 25mm spacers is +5

You can manage your offsets in aftermarket wheels and reduce or eliminate spacers to get flush If you go wider (say 10.5 rears) that 12.5mm of addition width over oem sport rays so that will change your effective offset accordingly


ps - still looking for help from someone on how much front to rear height differential that the ABS and VDC can take when staggering heights

So,

19x9.5 +33 = 20mm outward than current sport wheels

19x10.5 +11 = 25mm outward than current sport wheels

Why is this not advised? Wouldn't this be the equivalent to adding 20mm front and 25mm rear spacer to sport wheels in the sense of being flush on the outer side of the wheels towards fenders?


Also, from what I have read on the forum, you should keep the front and rear overall diameter below 1.0% difference to be safe. Around 0.5% would be best. To check yourself compare the front and rear sizes of the stock sport wheels and tires as well as the Nismo Stock wheels and tires. The Sport wheels and tires come out to 0.52% Difference and the Nismo Wheels and tires come out to 0.51%. Here is a Link - http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php...et2=23#content

I hope that helps..

Em370z 08-22-2014 09:34 AM

Hello guys i have varrstoen es1 rim 19x9.5 front offset 12 and 19x11 offset 15 and was wondering if the size tire 245/35/19 front and 275/35/19 rear would fit into the rim with out being stretched or will it have to be stretched no matter what?? Pls help guys

KaienZ34 08-22-2014 10:31 AM

245 on an 9.5" rim will be stretched, along with the 275 on an 11" rim. Some hate the look some don't mind. If you don't want the stretched look you'll need to go wider. Also are you lowered or going to be, if so how low. If your going lower than springs you will have to stretch the front, you should be able to go wider in the rear if you want.

Yupp i will be lowered, and was planning to have it a bit lower than the spring as well!! I like the stretch look but i would like it to the point where its a bit stretched but still able to drive without issue!! So what tire size would you recommend if i didnt want the stretch look?
Thank you

KaienZ34 08-22-2014 12:38 PM

Lowered on coils with a 9.5+12 I'd run a 245/40 up front, with an 11+15 I'd go 285/35 out back. You'll have some stretch but nothing crazy, all depends on how low you go, how much camber you want and if you want the meaty look or stretched.

Here is a helpful and fun link, play around with it and see what you like.

Ooh ok really dont know anything about camber!! I need to research that up but it would b in the neg side of it! And thank you for the link!!

_james562_ 08-24-2014 09:53 PM

Ok here's another one!

19x9.5 0 offset (fronts)

19x10.5 0 offset (rears)

Stock tires and not lowered
But planning on lowering on coilovers right after

Thoughts?

ecanela2507 08-31-2014 10:53 PM

OK here's another one

19x9.5 front for offset they offer +15,25,38,45
19x10.5 rear for offset they only offer +20

stock tires and lowered on swift springs
will i need spacers to mount flush and which offset should i go with on the front

aszyd 09-01-2014 12:29 AM

+25 front and +20 with 10mm spacers rear.

6MT-Z34 09-01-2014 09:23 PM

I'm thinking about getting some wheels but idk anything about offsets lol...this are the sizes 19x9.0 +25 and 19x10 +25....I'm on stock height but plan to drop down on swifts or coilovers but with similar drop as swifts. Are those good offsets or will I need spacers for either setup? Also, you guys think I can go with NISMO size tires or regular sports size tires?

Thanks :tiphat:

You will need spacers in the back. If you have the sport package, +25 in the front is good, but the rears you will require some spacers (15mm probably). It also depends on the tire sizes you want to run.

Thanks! I did forget to mention I have the sports package ....I'm thinking either 245/275 or 245/285 do u think I can run wider tired? And no spacer?

A local here is running 305s

6MT-Z34 09-02-2014 07:10 AM

Damn that is wide lol

clkio 09-02-2014 08:12 AM

I am running 275 in the front and 305 in the back, no issues. With smaller tire sizes, you can run very low offsets in the back

Those are some meaty tires :tup:

Correct me if I'm wrong but I just want to make sure I understandhow this works correctly... If run OEm size tires I won't need spacers? Or is it the other way around? :icon14:

aszyd 09-03-2014 08:53 AM

That depends on the combination of tire size, wheel width, offset and your appearance goals. I can say for certain that 19x10.5 +22 w/ 305x30 has no fitment issues in the rear. I say that spacers are needed because there is a gap between the tire and fender, not that the wheels won't fit.
