Makes sense at that camber setting

Jquad 08-02-2011 04:48 AM

Sup fellas:tiphat: just recently bought me some wheels:tup:
just wanted to know if this set of tires would fit.
which options do you think it's better?
this is my offset...
20x9.5 +15 F
20x11 +10 R

255-35 F
285-30 R

Any suggestions would be appreciated:tiphat:

Looks ok.

The rear tire will have a tad stretch to it.

THe Avant Garde M310 are 19x9.5 +20 with the 255 are dead on so 5mm out shouldn't be a problem.

The 11 + 10 sounds ok as well.

daisuke149 08-02-2011 12:08 PM

you should run a 305 or at least a 295 in the rear. Dont need to go smaller unless you lik the stretch look.

dbayb 08-02-2011 01:45 PM

aggressive or stretched
 
I know this is probably a dumb question but I am confused as to the two terms used for the wheel fitment.. Does aggressive mean the tires sit more to the outside of the car? Or is that the difinition for stretched?

Next question::
I have 20x8.5 with 40 offset with 255/35 and 20x10 with a 35 offset & 285/30. HELO 834's... but they sit too far in on the rears. The fronts look fine. I want the wheels to sit out to the edge of the car body and not rub. I dont want to do any other mods except spacers right now. If I go 25mm in the back will that be the right setup without rubbing??

thank you for your help...

It's going to fit nicely... just depends how low you want to go as well.

You might have a little big of a hard time tucking the tire with that 11' +10.

nugenzboss 08-02-2011 10:17 PM

I have 19x10 and19x11 with 0 offset all around. Would 285/35/19 and 305/30/19 work with swift springs?

I figured that as well that i might have a hard time tucking the tires. it is a bit stretch.
I was just hoping it might make a difference on road noise and roughness. plus it's a lil cheaper =)

What do you suggest I do like a 255/35/19 and a 305/30/19? I think that would fit but wouldnt that look awkward?

This ithe common setup most people run... You can tuck a 305 with factory camber equipment in the rear. I did for the longest time with an 11+0 and 305's

ohh boy.
those are gonna be really really ticked in. If you have sports id venture they willd efinitely not clear the akebono's. if you dont have sport i still dont know if they will clear the base brakes.

Why would you go with such a tiny wheel?

Jasonle 08-03-2011 09:51 AM

look around at what people have, find a style you want, find out how you want it to fit, poking, flush, tucked etc. then ask what the best option is for you.

Jasonle 08-03-2011 10:12 AM

^ thanks for the advice!

yeah i see that now :p

but yeah the 305/25 is a very thin sidewall. Its one main reason why i didnt want to go with 11's and instead went with 12"s. so i could get the 325

you would be able to fit the 325 on your wheel, it would be slightly larger, but I dont think you could fit it with the offset you have.

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.

I just bought a the evo V12s for my Z as well, but with 275-35 (stock spec for Sport). I wanted 255-35 like you, but the Tire Rack agent seemed in a hurry to sell me the evos. I was also thinking of getting Sumitomo HTRZ-III and putting 275-40-19 on the rear. He said the tolerances on our car were so tight that the tire would probably scrape (from "35" to "40" will scrape?). I ended up just going ahead with the purchase, because after two days of looking, a trip coming up next week, and worn-out rears, I needed rubber. But I then found that I could have bought the evos for the same or less at my nearby Big Brand Tire store by using the rebates listed on their website, and I would have been supporting local business. So, my Rx: Plan ahead, be well rested, and take a polite but assertive attitude into shopping for any tire or wheel and any size. The RPF-1 issue(s) is/are an example. There have been many opinions posted on what will fit and what will not, with different posters offering different opinions. I didn't mean to jack your post/question, but in general I was offering the opinion: Politely question advice unless you know it to be accurate, take your time, and do not but impulsively, especially when going to modified set-ups.

Good luck,
Jeffrey :driving:

What Size BBS LM-Rs would be best?
 
To start things off i know nothing about buying or choosing wheels.What Size BBS LM-Rs would be best? Like I want to go for a large rim size and it be wide but i didnt know what size would be best... i want it to be flush with the car so would i need spacers? here are the sizes of the wheel..

LM-R:19 x 8.5 LM-R:19 x 9.5 LM-R:19 x 10 LM-R:19 x 11 20 x 8.5 LM-R:20 x 9LM-R:20 x 9.5 LM-R:20 x 10

Oh and i would like that staggered look too.



Edit: And also what does the bolt pattern and offset need to be?

daisuke149 08-05-2011 02:30 PM

19x10 + 30 with 275/35/19
19x11 + 15 with 305/30/19

those SHOOOOULd be about right. Before you go jump on it let others chime in too.

Hi, I have a stock 2010 Nismo and wanted to put on Michelin super sports in a 275/35/19 and a 305/30/19 on the rear. Does anyone know if that will work?

Yes it will.

DVSkier 08-09-2011 10:38 PM

That's great, I was worried the most about the front tires since the tread width will be 1.5" wider. I wasn't sure it would tuck under the fender without rubbing. It is .8" shorter though. Is that why it will work?

I have 275/35/19 up front on a 19x10+26 and only scrape on dips in the roads. Your OEM Nismo front wheels are 19x9.5+40. I'm also lowered, which doesn't help my case. Either way, your front wheels are 1" more inside the fender than mine are. You have nothing to worry about.

DVSkier 08-09-2011 11:51 PM

Thanks so much, I really appreciate the advice. Can't wait to get the tires.

just an fyi. its not really 1.5" wider per say. The wheels are measured from the inside area where the tire beads go. There is then that lil extra edge to the wheels which for most companies ad's up to around 1 to 1.2" so a 10" wide wheel if you measure from the very outside to the other outside edge is normally actually around 11" to 11.2" Which is why the 275 will actually look really good and fit well on your front. I have a 275 on my front 10" wheel and im considering moving to a 285 or 295.

Hello again. I'm looking into getting the enkei pf01 in these fitments:

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

I have sports brakes and I'm lowered on swift springs already without any camber kit. Will these work? please recommend me some tires. Thanks

MVPTonyD 10-04-2011 04:22 AM

will these fit a non-Sports Package 370z? With out any spacers.

Rota grid 18" wheels

Check the hub bore on them...

If you can get that to be the same with hub rings, then yes they will fit.

Will they look good?

No. Not at all.

If you like the look of 18s then yes... they will work. The front is going to be a little aggressive for just springs, so you might have to dial in some negative camber to get the front tires to sit inside of the fenders.

StiKiller_12 10-05-2011 08:36 AM

Im thinking of getting some new tires for my nismo stock rims....

You shouldn't have any issues running that.

KaienZ34 10-05-2011 11:37 AM

But spacers would make it look better.
