Enkei rpf1

18x9.5 +38
18x10.5 +15

Would these clear the sports package brakes?
What size tires should I go with?

Thank you.

go falken 452's or Hankook depending on your budget...

I run on falkens :tup:

spacers needed
 

ok, here I go again.. HELP??
I listened to the tire people at the shop and went with:
20x8.5 with 40 offset and 20x10 with a 35 offset, they told me that was STOCK offsets..
Wheels are HELO 834's I put 255/35 frt and 285/30 rear on NITTO 555's..
ALL IS GOOD EXCEPT THAT DARN OFFSET. NOW i need a good set of spacers,
tires look smaller than 18's due to how far in they sit..
ANYONE have any good luck with spacers and where should I go?
I think I need 25 in back and 15 up front. HELP??

I think H&R DRS Spacer are run by a lot of people and 25/15 would make your offsets 15/20, which would be fine, but I think you can run wider spacers in the back...

Looking for a flush look on my car with Swift Springs:

Is this setup okay?
20x9.5 +24
20x10.5 +15

What tires should I run if I want a stretched look?

Thanks for the help in advance.

If car is dropped on Swift Springs and looking to get a aggressive/flush setup:

20x10 +20
20x10.5 +15

275/30/20
305/25/20

Will this setup work out?
Thanks

Looks about good. For the rear you may want a 5mm spacer or 10 depending on how you setup your camber.

You will need camber up front. I have a 19x10+26 up front with a 275/35 tire with -2.3 camber and I rub on bumps in the road.

thats odd man. I have 20x10 +27 with a 275/30/20 tire and I dont rub at all and my camber is under 1 atm (havnt had it adjusted)

Are you rubbing the fender or suspension components inside?

You have a thinner sidewall. It rubs where the fender mounting point is for the fender liner.

true, but the overall dimensions are almost exactly the same. hrmm. interesting stuff.

Diameter inches (mm) 26.58 (675.1) 26.5 (673) -0.08 (-2.1) -0.3%
Width inches (mm) 10.83 (275) 10.83 (275) 0 (0) 0%
Circum. inches (mm) 83.5 (2120.89) 83.24 (2114.29) -0.26 (-6.6) -0.3%
Sidewall Height inches (mm) 3.79 (96.25) 3.25 (82.5) -0.54 (-13.75) -14.2%
Revolutions per mile (km) 758.81 (471.22) 761.17 (472.69) 2.36 (1.47) 0.3%

Maybe add in the fact that I'm on H&R springs with OEM shocks that don't appreciate the aftermarket springs? Haha.

possibly you might be bouncing alot more. I just wouldnt think it would be that close cus you have -2 camber and im sitting at like closet to -0.8. Oh well, in the end nothing is ever built 100% like the next item especially when its diff, wheels, diff tires, diff suspension setups!

i have a 2009 base 370z and just bought the following size wheels... will they fit okay?

front: 20 x 8.5 with a 32 offset
rear: 20 x 9.5 with a 35 offset.

do you all think it will look funny or do i ned anything else?
\
thank you!!!

those will fit.. be very recessed. You'd prolly want some massive spacers if you wanted a flusher look.

P.S why didnt you get something wider?

I honestly didnt know better, the salesman said theyd fit like the factory wheels... do you think it will look funny without the spacers... the tires i bought are 245-35-20 up front and 285-30-20 in the rear. I get the put on next week. What size spacers would you recommend? thanks for your help... I am very new aT this as you can tell :)

A 45mm spacer up front and a 65mm spacer in the rear would help. I hate to say it, but those wheels are going to be tucked nearly 2 inches up front and nearly 3 inches in the rear.

not only that. but since they are so tucked, depending on the design i hope they clear the brakes. : /

If I get wider tires and bigger wheels, will it throw off my speedo? If yes, where would I take it to get the speedo corrected? I didn't read this entire thread so I don't know if thhis question was answered.

all depends on the overall tire size you get.

You could go wider, with a smaller sidewall ratio which could make the overaly wheel+tire height the same as the OEM, in which case the speedo is the same.

Unless you get something completely wrong, your speedo wouldnt be off by more than +- 3% which isnt that big of a deal.

so if i get the spacers, the stance will look correct? will it drive different? sorry to ask so many questions.

You should have asked or done research before buying wheels...

On a side note, I don't think spacers in the sizes you need exist.

Hi. I have a 370z with sports package and lowered on swift spec-r springs. I wanted to know if these volk ce28n would fit without any fender modification and what size tires to go with. Thanks in advance.

19x9.5 +12
19x10.5 +12

Enkie RPF1 18x10.5 15 offset
 

I bought a set of Enkei 18x10.5 w/15 offset and I think I may have screwed up. My plan was to run a sqaure set up with 285 or 305. I have only tracked the car once with the standard setup (Nismo 19") and experienced some understeer that I was hoping to correct.

The rear is fine, but the front sticks out about 1" past the fender.

My first thought was to keep two for the rear and buy two new RFP1s in 18x9.5 with 38 or 45 offset and go back to a staggered setup but I am told that they won't work because of a spoke clearance issue with the brakes on the.

Does anyone here have any experience with the 18" RPF1s on a 370Z? I am looking for a solution other than selling these and going with a different wheel altogether but that looks like where I am heading.

The +12 in the front is pretty aggressive. I'd go with 245/35/19 in the front. And a 275 or 285 in the rear with a 10mm spacer to match the fronts aggressive stance better. You may need a camber kit if it rubs..
Hope that helps :tiphat:

Wow that's wide on the front. Have you tried to camber it in some?

RPF1's
 

I forgot to mention that I have the Seibon CF fenders that are 10mm wider, but even with that the 10.5's still stuck out so much that I figured no amount of camber adjustment would get them back in the fender well.

I wish I could just replace the fronts with 9.5's and 285 but I'm told there is a spoke clearance issue with the RPF1 9.5 on the front of the Z.

hi guy i just found a nice wheel and i dont know it gonna fit 2010 base sports and the wheel came off Land Rover Range Rover Sport and i know the Bolt Pattern is 5-120
for the Land Rover so is there anyway to make it fit. the wheel are SAVINI BS4 245/30/22 x9.5 for the front and the rear 295/25/22 x11.5 so can any one help me out thank you

anyway i found the Wheel Adapter 5 Lug 4.75 To 5 Lug 4.5 it will take care the problem thank you again and have anyone have wheel adapter on their car before it save to have wheel adapter thank again

im on the sports package 19's.
received my hankook ventus evo v12's
I got 255/35/19 and 295/30/19
In my opinion you can go more aggressive but will lose steering response.
Mine feels just about right.
When I was looking at my z today I realized you can go 275/35/19 fronts and 305/30/19 rears. and it will sit just right. Not even flush.
I am not dropped, nor do I plan on dropping since I dd my Z and my area is terrible for dropped cars.

:icon14: :icon14: stop drinking and posting

I have zigen 18 9.5 35 on the front with 285/30/18's.

heres a pic front the front.

Had to change my order from the continental DW super sports due to continental delaying all production for no reason and backordering my tires to 2012 from tire rack. So anyway, ordered 265 35 19f 305 30 19r. Of the potenza pole positions. I'm still running my stock rims on my nismo, Will it fit? Please explain offset, and do I need spacers.

Yes it will fit no problem... Also spacers are not needed unless you want it to look more flush

I am a newbie about wheels and was wondering if this would fit my Roadster with the sport package.

Vertini Magic
20x8.5 +35 Fronts
20x10 +35 Rears
bolt pattern 5x114.3

I know they are pretty close though but was unsure about the offsets and if I needed spacers or anything. Also, how would I figure out the right tire size for these wheels? Any help is appreciated.

One more question to add to this post...

19x9.5 et15
19x12 et0

What kind of tires would I need?
I'll be instaling swift springs or some sort of lowering springs at the same time.

(might even consider coilovers if that's necessary)

Thanks!

run 255 front and 305 rear

you will be fine... you may want spacers if your looking for a flush fitment.

12+0 and a 305!

baller fitment!

Going to need some camber to get that to work.

I am running that setup and only required -3 camber
