Is any of you running 19x10 25mm front and rear with no issues? trying to get myself a set of Advan GT's. Got tired of my old aftermarket wheels. I'm currently running 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 20mm rear.

The rears are going to require a big spacer (25mm or 30mm) to match the fronts. Staggered set would be a better choice.

I'm on spacers. I don't recall the size. I can't see to find them where I can have the option to select individual sizes. They sell them in full price for a set it seems. Trying to find them as close to my current setup

For the love of god please read this before you spend money on the wrong size Advan

I am afraid to ask but here it goes. A local person is selling a brand new set of Advan GT wheels. specs are

19x9.5 +30
19x10.5 +15

will these fit flush? I am not a fan of poke.

a set of Advans will run you close to $4,000

don't buy some crappy size thats gonna need spacers

and if you're looking at a used set . . . it's not worth it

get the right size wheels

Yeah this guy is selling them new in the box never mounted.
He wants 4100.00 that's why I was asking about fitment.
The only reason to buy them from him is I can pick them up this weekend.
He lives like 50 miles away.

But yes if the fitment is not right then I would just order a new set that fit properly.

Lvcky69 02-24-2021 02:40 PM

I decided to go with the standard 57cr's 19x8.5 25mm front and 19x9.5 25mm rear. I'm on 285/35/19 rear and 255/40/19 front. Only using rear spacers. Can I use same tires?

sir...that is a no go. I bought mine brand new for 3400, be it they were 18's. He's asking retail. IMO go more aggressive in the front and the rear go more aggressive if you have the option

OptionZero 02-24-2021 04:27 PM

you want
20x10.5 +24 front and 20x12 +20 rears

if you got $4k you might as well to it right

You should also look here and learn about the different variations of Advan GT
YOKOHAMA WHEEL | Japanese Cars List

There is the "regular" Advan GT, available on 18/19/20 inch. These are forged and have a sticker for the logl

There is the Advan GT Premium available in 18/19/20/21 inch. These have an engraved logo

There is the Advan GT Beyond available only in 19 for now. 18/20 inch sizes coming later this year. These have a different face design that has less lip and more concave spokes.


All of the 19 inch variations only go up to 10.5, +15 which is fine, but not that aggressive for the rear.

Only the 20's let you play with more aggressive sizing (so far)

Is it too late to get a refund and return them?

I haven't purchased them yet. Maybe sometime next month. It is close to what I have now, except, they will be 5mm less tucked in. Only using rear spacers. If you have better options where I don't have to use spacers let me know.

OptionZero 02-24-2021 05:58 PM

yeah i made a whole goddamn thread about wheel fitment

http://www.the370z.com/wheels-tires/...tart-here.html

Read it and you can learn about how to buy wheels that fit with out spacers?

you are lighting money on fire buying wheels WORSE than what a stock nismo comes with

hell, even the fuckin' wheels you're looking at COME in better sizes
the 57CR's come in 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 which is a STANDARD FITMENT for our cars

did you see i even linked that thread for you before?

take the help

Many times but since some of us are new, we need to seek advices from pros like you. The 15+ nismo runs +40 front and +23 rear. The 57cr's come with 19x9.5 +25, not 22. I will be rubbing in the front if I get 9.5 which is why a 8.5 will clear the fender by half an inch..well not even

OptionZero 02-24-2021 07:36 PM

Many, many people have run 19x9.5 +22, lowered, with no issues. That size DOES NOT RUB

There is no reason to buy an 8.5 inch front, that is stupid

you are right thanks. in that case I can use my tires with 255/40 front and 285/35 rear

Kouki 04-24-2021 03:47 PM

Coming up on needing to change tires I’m currently running 265/35/19 and 305/30/19 on a 19x9.5 and 19x11. Can I jump up to a 265/40 and 305/35 combo? Want to fill wheel gap up without going any lower considering my exhaust always scraped speed bumps. Will the ABS and TCS lights come on?

Rusty 04-24-2021 04:20 PM

Be no problem. You'll only be .3% difference.

THIRSTINMORE 05-11-2021 12:05 PM

Can someone advise what the best rim size might be for 18in wheels that clear the akebono brakes on springs. Im looking for something for the street/track that will have more tires available - clear the akebono brakes - and look flush with no poke. and if you can recommend any tire sizes id be most grateful.

Come on did you not read through this section or the thread on 18s on a Z. Try Google! It simply depends on many things. One of them being how much do you want to spend, are you going square? First try and help yourself and then come back with this what I am thinking, I want to run square setup or staggered. I like like Enkie's, Rays or whatever.

Not trying to be **** but there are a lot of options!

Current setup: Stock 2011 Base Wheels
225/50 R18
245/45 R18
Lowered on swift springs

Goals: Use the same tires (they are brand new michelin sport)
Be able to clear akebono (plan on upgrading some day)
Have a flush fit

That being said, I was looking at the Vordoven Forme 15 because I live right by their warehouse and I like to support local when I can.

My setup options are 18x8.5 +30
18x9.5 +22 or +30

Would this setup achieve any or all of my goals?

You will be able to keep your current rubber but those sizes will leave you a country mile from being flush. You'll be 25-30mm sunken in front and 30-35mm sunken in the rear. Makes more sense to sell your whole current setup and buy new (or used) wider aftermarket wheels.

I just bought a set of the Nismo 57cr in white. Sizes are 18x9.5+38 and 18x10.5+12.I have akebonos brakes aswell. Now i know that the rears (obv the 10.5) will fit and the fronts (9.5+38) will not fit. I know that i will need a slight spacer. Im just wondering if anyone has or is currently running this size and what size spacer they are using upfront to make the wheel flush and clear the brakes.

Also there are 213 pages so don’t be an a****** and say go search.

Return your fronts and buy better sizes

EDIT:
18x9.5 +22 is sold out. I mean this should make it pretty obvious what size spacer you need . . .

but a better solution:
Return your fronts AND your rears

buy 19x9.5 +25 and 19x10.5 +12

Hotrodz 06-21-2021 07:55 PM

If these are for the track and you want 18's your fronts are all wrong.

Looking into buying Akebono's for my base 370z. Wheels are Enkei RPF1's. Anyone know if a 245/45/18 +35 and a 275/40/18 +15 will provide clearance for the calipers? Hoping someone has a similar setup.

OptionZero 07-14-2021 04:09 PM

They will not clear

Buy diff wheels

derek_370z 07-14-2021 08:11 PM

Bummer, not even with spacers?

i think there are lots of people running 10.5+15 square with sport brakes without front spacer (rear spacer because fitment sucks without one) (at least everyone on FB said it would be fine, so take that for what it's worth)

I wanted to run 9.5+15 front RPF1 and got mixed response on facebook. Still don't know if the face has enough clearance. What is the width of the front wheel you want?

OptionZero 07-14-2021 10:42 PM

Buy wheels that fit

i want the looks of the RPF1. nothing else in the price range i like. so without stepping up to something twice as expensive. RPF1 will have to do. Looks obviously more important to a lot of people.

i'm on the base wheels with +20mm spacer in front so for a good fitment you'll need a spacer. making clearance for brakes a lot easier. I wouldn't buy +35 if you're buying new wheels tho personally.
