I never realized how heavy those Varrstoens were till just now lol.

Thanks for the reply. I wish I could get a look at someone's Z who was running a +12 up front. It makes me nervous not seeing it first. If I end up needing a camber kit up front, it might be better just to try another wheel with more offset options.

My friend is running +12 but thats on his 350z lol. IF he gets his car back soon I might be able to get him to spend a bit of his time for a wheel swap just on the front to see where it sits for you but it'll be about a week. His car is in the shop gettin new bumpers and sideskirts installed, and painted. Hes rocking the same wheels you want but in white.

Also slapped em on OEM suspension and drove off with no camber adjustments or lowering etc needed.

Just have to pick the right setup!

Did the same thing. Paid $1700 for 4 Mich PSS.

I'm considering a set of Varrstoen ES 2.2.2 and I'm lowered on Swifts.

From what I've read, if I got the 9.5 +22 up front, they would not clear my sport brakes. The +12 up front just seems crazy aggressive.

My question is, how much of a spacer would I need up front to clear the sport brake kit? Is a 5mm spacer going to do it?

Secondly, if I get the 10.5 +12 for the rears, how close to flush am I going to end up? Would I be better off running spacers in the back too?

Lastly, are my stock tires going to fit this setup?

Any photos anyone has of a similar setup would also be greatly appreciated!

My setup isn't exactly what your looking for but it gives you some idea. Lowered on swifts stock rear camber (no front camber kit) 19x9.5+20 with 255/35/19 up front and 19x10.5+0 with 295/30/19 out back, tires are Mich PSS.

Thanks man! That helps a lot actually... seems like the +22 with a 5mm spacer is really the way to go (effectively +17) and I'll probably need 5mm to 10mm on the rears too (effectively +7 or +2).

Anyone have a recommendation on spacers? Who makes the best quality 5mm spacer?

That's what she said.

I'm sorry.

Stock 18" tyres 225/50? on front and 245/45? on rear. Stock height for the moment. Akebono brakes (I think you guys call this the sport package).

Will this fit? Look ok?

iamwagz · 06-09-2013, 12:01 AM

Anyone?

w0rM · 06-09-2013, 12:32 AM

If I were going to upgrade my wheels, I'd go with a 19" rather than 18". IMO, the 18s just don't look as good.

If I'm not mistaken, those offsets are also going to have your rear wheels poking a little bit more than your front.

I'm pretty sure those will clear your brakes but if you want to be certain, try calling one of the Work dealers and ask them. The guys at RavSpec are very helpful.

19x10 with -30 offset (265/30) tire - Alignment on tuesday

Rear stock sport rims with 20mm spacers on Eibach's, 305/30/19 fit with out rubbing? Running fronts 265/35/19 w/15mm spacers, which are sweet and look great.

Those tire sizes will look weird on stock suspension, in my opinion. 245 on the 9" and 275 on the 10", or something more meaty would look better if the car isn't lowered.

Hello.

Im iof deciding what size of wheels I should get.

For front, 20x10 +25 is an option.
I want have camber set up as OEM. Not too much negitive camber.
Also. I want the set up in a way that my wheels are closest to fender as possible.
Is it possible for me to go lower offset? Or +25 is enough?

For rear, 20x11 with offset of +15 or +20.
I also want rear ones to be close OEM camber set up while it is closest to fender as possible.
Should I get +15 or +20?
If someone can help me, I will be very appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
