The "Will it fit?" thread

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.

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.

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?

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

someone else could chime in to confirm this.

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.

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)
anyone have input??

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".

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
