there's probably 4 sets in the classified section here at all times in 19 lol

go get yourself a discount :tiphat:

Might stick with 19s, alot of te37 on the fs section but no black or offset im looking for

Unless you have an exact/specific size or flavor; tire option's are much better in the 19's vs. 20's for these cars.

:iagree:

especially if you are trying to run any kind of serious width

Just ordered 19x9.5 +22 19x10.5 +12 Te37sl double pressed black, im so happy, thanks to all for the help

Does anyone know how to calculate what will/won't fit based on measurements and/or math?

Winter Setup
 

Hi Guys! So I spent the last hour searching for the specs that I'm trying to find to no avail. I'm looking for winter wheels/tires for my 2010 370Z with the akebono sport brakes and came across a set that a 2010 370Z owner is selling but for a non sport brake setup.

Sport Edition ST4
18x8 + 32 for all four wheels
5x114.3
Blizzak 245/45/R18

will it fit? especially around the akebonos?

Been searching and searching for answers and it seems like threads are just pretty inactive.

Looking at grabbing a set of Forgestar F14's but I want to do something most people haven't done or wouldn't do by running super deep concaves in all four corners.
Specs will be:

Front: 20x10.5 et35? and either 285/30/20 or 265/35/20
Rear: 20x12 et30? and either 325/25/20 or (305/315)/(30/25)/20

Will be dropping about 1" to 1.5" on Powertrix Sport/Street Coils. Obviously things are still a little up in the air, tire sizes depending on what will clear and being able to find them in those sizes. Will be doing a fender roll and possibly a pull depending on what's needed to maintain minimal camber.

But can anyone with a little more experience point me in the right direction for offsets? Should I go with more aggressive offsets or will that be just enough to go flush without spacers and clear the suspension? I feel like I'm on the right track but still a little lost.

Pictured here is a very clean 20" setup. 265/30 & 325/25's on +20F & +26R Michelin PSS tires.
9.5" & 12" wide wheels. It is shown on "370z Meaty Tire Thread"....a few of the front sized tires you mentioned are taller than rear/closer to stock diameter..both of these tires are 26.3" diameter & car looks lowered.
20's don't have the selection that 19's do with bunches of width.
Ck out that thread & you will see more options.Attachment 108930

tires/wheels
 

see above post-forgot to quote you.

You can look at other pages on forum; such as [official]370z wheel fitment guide (pics/specs) only. Also I use this chart to help me calculate.
Weather it's a truck or car; the slightest mistake can make a huge difference.Attachment 108931

You guys are awesome, thanks for the help!

I was wanting some suggestions for tires for my setup. I'll be running 305/30's in the rear on 11" wide (+20 offset) but am undecided on what to use in the front. The wheel is a 19x10 (+20 offset) and I'm trying to decide between a 265/35 or a 275/35... has anyone ran something close to this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Back will be fine: should be about flush,,, but front is gonna poke out. 19x10+30's are closer to flush & the 265/35 is same diameter as the 305/30... & don't require a 10"wide wheel...scroll back a few pages & search a few other threads: I feel sure you would have to roll fenders for those... If you are running the same offset on front & rear,,,you need about 2" rim width difference to match up.

I'm looking to put a set of Volks on my 2015 Nismo and was wondering if this set up would work. Also since the 15 Nismo comes with the fender flares would i be able to keep them on or have to remove them.

Volk TE37SL
19x10.5+22 all round
Wanting to run staggered tires, maybe F: 265/35 and R: 285-295?

Unsure on tires so if you know the best fit that would be great. Looking to go meaty

PS: I am currently at stock height but might considering lowering if needed. Not looking to run excessive camber

Thanks guys

Not sure about fender flares but: Your rear wheels will virtually be the same spec;just (.042"or 1.067mm) further out.
Front's will be (1.205"or 30.658mm) further out.
I've seen +22 9.5" wide wheels look flush-But what you have proposed will definitely stick out/unless i'm missing something.

As far as going meaty on the tire; i've seen factory Nismo wheels running 275/35's & 325/30's...pending on Tire maker.

I'm sure owner of this Beauty won't mind;
But here's an example.
9.5"wide +20Front w/265's
12"wide +26 Rear w/325's
If he had 10" wide wheels on front: then his offset could be +26 also & only stick out .006" more;barely noticeable.
It's all in what YOU like.....& not everyone else.
Have a nice day! :)

2" Difference in wheel width will put outer part of wheel in almost exact spot (in relationship to fenders) pending no crazy camber settings are used (within specs)

Thanks man I appreciate it. After some digging I think i would definitely have to shave my fender flares to take them off completely. Might just end up going with a 9.5 front so its less of a worry.

Hi Guys, I am looking at getting the xxr 526 wheels sizes 20x9 +13 and 20x11 +11. Will I have any rubbing issues with these? I am lowered on eibach springs.

Thanks

Should be fine. It´s pretty common to run a 9.5" +20 without problems. your 9" +13 would be equivalent to a 9.5" +19. so, I doubt the 1mm difference will cause any rubbing on the fender.

Thanks for the quick response!

You been playing with the calculator; the grey Z (pictured on quote #1340) is right about where the outer part of your wheels will sit/ just be sure they are made to clear your brakes.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

doing a little further figuring & here are the results;
20x9+13 & 20x11+11,,,outer wheel will be .006" further out in front than RadRides Z pictured in quote #1340 & rear wheels will be .078" further out.
20x11+13 will be in exact same spot on outer lip as his 20x12+26
Remember; Camber will play a big role on tire selection.
Everyone has a different taste & you should be ok as long as you dont hang super fat tires on the front.
I've seen some wild looking set-up's & yours should be ok with factory camber specs.

I am wondering if something will fit. I have a 2012 370z with the OEM rays

I am looking at 4 Axis Hiros. 19x9.5 +40 so 4 of them all around. Will it fit and clear front breaks?

Are you planning to use wheel-spacers to bring them closer to a flush fit?
if so; i'd say yes.

probably would need 15-20mm spacer in front (15more conservative)
and 30-40mm in rear,,,pending on how close to flush you want them.

Will high sidewall fit in rear?
 

Hi all, I have a 2011 Nismo (weekend warrior and track days) and would like to put on 285/40 on back and 245/35 on front in order to throw a little bit more car weight onto the front wheels. The front is not a concern but the back is questionable. Does anyone know if the extra 14mm around will cause issues with the wheel well? And please let me know if your information is based on experience...I have researched this to death and am still scared I will end up with an $800 "tarp weight" (giant paper weight).

Thanks for all you comments.

Where you at in Pa? What you need is a bigger swaybar on the front.

why not go with RE-11s and 285/35 R and 245/40 F?

its the widths you wanted, the overall diameter is only .2" larger in the R

I have: 2010 Nismo stock height, stock suspension

I have a set of HR Pro 5 racing rims that I would like to put Drag radials on.

Spare rim brand: HR size 19/10 +44 offset
How wide and tall of a tire can I safely get on there? I have to drive 50 minute to and then 50 minutes from the track with them on.

I'm in Morgantown PA...I read your entire journal...you still near Pittsburgh? Front sway, perhaps I will consider it. I am hoping I will be getting an SC this summer so I held off on a few other upgrades for fear it would interfere or be irrelevant with SC install.

I have 285/35 on rear now and 245/40 on front now. Want to transfer bit more of weight on rear wheel up to front. One way to do that is to raise the rear a bit and lower the front a bit. I'm not sure the significant of the RE-11. I have no problem switching from Yokos to Pirelli or Michellin, or any other brand that has the size, but I question the fit as going from 35 to 40s in rear will put rubber 14mm closer to fenderwell and will raise the rear by 28mm couple that with the reduction of the front tires should produce a little less understeer.

I was just wondering if anyone tried 40s. If not, I will consider going wider on front to promote more traction up front while retaining same on back...bit that is not my first choice.

/Z/

Driving that far too & from the track...i'd bout only rely on Mickey Thompson Drag Radials.
The 19" choice is very slim (1) 27.90" tall
This will reduce your hole-shot,unless you have lower gears.
Should clear fine & tuck well underneath fender/ & i'm guessing you have already installed rear camber arms;to stand them upright?
Not sure how big your brakes are; but better selection in 18" & down.

Be ready to disable any factory ABS or Traction control completely; That's a 2"+ taller tire in rear?

You're over by the "City of Brothers on Drugs" Philly. Yea, I'm south of the 'burgh.
The tire combination you want to run may be too much difference in tire height. 245/35-19 is 26.7". The 285/40-19 is 28.0" That might upset the computer. You might want to rethink this. Keeping the stock Nismo rims. You can go 285/35-19 (26.9) front and 295/35-19 (27.1) rear. You would be almost a square set-up.

Or 275/35 up front & 295/35's rear...(26.6 & 27.1) a slight bit of rake.
I may have looked at it wrong/but thought i seen the 245/35's coming in at 25.8"
