Blacklisted9 - sorry if you've mentioned this before, but are you lowered, or will you be lowered?

I am lowered on swift springs

The fronts at +12 with that size tire will rub for sure. +22 on rears with that big of tire you might get lucky with no rub. But the fronts are going to stick out way past the fender and the rears are going to be tucked. It's not going to look right

I've been told by a few people 265 is the way to go for the fronts. What would be a better size. The 245/35/19? The fronts I measured and I have like .4 inch clearence. Also, I think the +12 should stick out 3/4th of an inch of I'm right in what I was being told.

teggy 11-15-2016 08:49 PM

what you guys think im looking at running a 20x11 +5 with a 285 tire in the rear. think i can get away with -2 or less camber? will be lowered on bc coils.

So you still suggest a +12 on rear

Blacklisted9 11-15-2016 08:55 PM

It says "Package 2 will stick out 33 mm (1.3'') farther. Make sure that you have enough room under the fender. If not, consider narrower tires or higher offset." On a calculater. It will go out slightly past and the +12 will do the same for the rear kinda matching them. But in clearence is the only thing. And the problem is I don't have any way to test for it.

These are the rims you're looking at +12/9.5 front +15/11 rear. To get it to sit flush the camber I ran was -2.25 front and -1.75 rear.

This was on 245/40 & 285/35 tires. You're tires are wider you'll need more camber than I ran to not rub.

Memphis370Z 11-15-2016 08:59 PM

Not the best angle, but just to give you an idea, this is 9.5 +25 with 265/35/19 and 10.5 +12 with 305/30/19. Lowered on Swifts with base brakes.

Blacklisted9 11-15-2016 09:01 PM

So I will have to run camber for it to be correct. I would like to keep the 325 rears but would switching to a 245 be a problem in the front?

Looking at your photo u still have a slight a amount of space left for the height of tires. So my fronts will look exactly like yours which is my real main concern. Did u have any rubbing problems? Cause the +12 or +22 shouldn't affect my fillment in wheel gap right?

Again exsuce me if I sound like an idiot. This 370z is the first sports car I purchased and I'm learning as I'm going. Thank you all for having patience.

Memphis370Z 11-15-2016 09:07 PM

I haven't had any issues with rubbing.

Memphis370Z 11-15-2016 09:09 PM

I added a side shot above too.

Blacklisted9 11-15-2016 09:09 PM

So just confirming really. Our front tires are the same on the same drop. THe only difference is the offset and how wide the tires are which won't affect the rub. Man I owe you all big time.

Looks good! If anything since it's a smaller rear wheel and bigger tire shouldn't it slightly stretch making it sit smaller.

OTW Z-Boy 11-15-2016 09:14 PM

The "Will it fit?" thread
 
The offset is the biggest factor in this... Memphis is 13mm more tucked in than you are that's why his stance on the front works lowered on swifts.

So in response I ask. He has enough clearence still for a slightly taller tire. So me having a wider offset should still allow me to sit okay. 3/4th of a inch isn't a HUGE amount. Especially if i do a little camber.

Again I could be wrong. So this is me asking. Still learning.

Your opinions :)?

Blacklisted9 11-15-2016 09:50 PM

What about a 245/35/19 on a front. That will be .5 inches shorter then the 265/35/19. Should help with the clearence of rubbing. Is that correct?

jchammond 11-16-2016 05:16 AM

if your ride height & camber is set where you want it; do the string test & measure your current gaps.
A wheel w/4" of front spacing (front) & 5" front spacing (rear) will evenly position the wheel lip in the same spot.....so a +12 9.5"F has 4.75" of front spacing vs. +22 rear w/4.875" of front spacing= 7/8" differential......meaning that if you choose that aggressive on the front; then a 0 or +2 offset rear will make your outward wheel poke more uniform.

shadow85 11-16-2016 06:23 AM

What is this Varrstoen brand?

Are they strong and light like their website says they are and how do they compare to the likes of the popular JDM wheels.

They seem cheap.

I know quite a few people personally who own them. They made pretty well. Under enough stress any wheel can break. Some require more stress but honestly I haven't seen anyone have problems personally.

I measured it out and from bottom to the fender center lip is 27 inches in the rear. My wheels are 26.7 inches leaves .3 inch gap

Fronts I have 26.7 inches and a 26.3 wheel height. Leaving .4 inch gap

Fronts http://i1216.photobucket.com/albums/...d911/Front.png

So i punched in the numbers compaired to what i have now and looking at it....Seems like everything will be okay clearing wise. Opinions?

Like this....gaps between imaginary centerline to check your offsets.

Hey guys, I just got my Stance wheels today 20x9 and 20x10.5 I would like to get your opinion on the tires im going to get... I wanted 265/35 and 305/30 what do you guys think!!?? Wide enough without rubbing??

teggy 11-17-2016 11:31 AM

just hoping you guys can help, ordered my wheels and was told a 20x9.5 +15 will fit in the front of my nismo Z, i was looking at running a 245/35/20 tire you guys think that fine without a camber kit up front?

imwazn 11-17-2016 01:36 PM

Can I run an 18x10+25 square set up? I'm lowered on Eibach's (about an inch drop). I think it should fit with a 265/35 or 275/35 up front. Any thoughts?

Which website did you use to get those wheel results?

This requires no suspension or fender mods at all for your Nismo Z. The +12 can work on the front, but depending on tire/height/camber specs, there is a possibility of rubbing. Let me know if interested :)

Hey thank you for your suggestions. I'm definitely interested in those and really wanted the KamiSpeed's TE as well because of the perfect fitment it offers, but that option will be another $1k for me :( and the Affirm payment won't approve my loan. And btw, I've checked the total in price for $3757.30, does that include all the taxing/shipping/handling? I might just save up a little extra and go for a fitment that everyone suggests.

Aside from that is there any suggestion on what tire size I should get? I am worried that I would need to spend extra on SPL arms for camber. After hours of search still haven't really found anyone with a +12 front TE37 19x9.5 setup yet. If it comes down to uncertainty, I might as well just go for the TE37 you offered.

The +12 will sit about 1/2 inch past your front fender... so if you want to tuck the tire you'll have to get the spl arms

I went the cheap route and wish I could have got real te37.

But I am doing the ES2 +12 and on the 28th I'll be putting that exact wheel size/offset on my car

I am putting 265/35/19 on them

Yes, as long as you dont live in FL. Then the site reflects all shipping/taxes/handling. What I can do since they are not ready to ship yet is accept a $1000 deposit to reserve a set coming in. Then when they are ready to ship you just pay the rest. Let me know if that works for you.

shadow85 11-21-2016 12:29 AM

So I am about to pull the trigger now after months of waiting.

Work Meister S13P
FRONT: 19x9.5 +17 T
REAR: 19x10.5 +12 R

Hope this is going to look nice.
