Not sure. I'm not running camber arms in the front, but it's the most adjustment one can get from the OEM components. I actually prefer the negative camber up front for better handling. For the rear, it's also the most I could go with the wheel and tire combo with 5mm spacers without rubbing.

Thanks jchammond and /Angelo350Z/, I was planning on running around -2 - -2.75 so hopefully it'll fit just fine. I prefer negative in the front for the same reasons.

I tried 5mm spacers up front and there was very noticeable rubbing. No camber arms on the front. Tires are Bridgestone RE-11.

Excellent. Set up looks great. What are you lowered on?

Thank you, I'm lowered on KW V1.

Sorry about how much of a drop... I'm on HKS out of the box and am wondering if I need to adjust down.

Was thinking of going 20's but ima stick with 19's, just hope Volk brings back te37 bronze or white in 19's

It's a bit more than the Swift springs drop but slightly less than the ARK GT-S drop, so maybe 1.75" front and 1.5" rear in the pictures. I've since raised the car maybe .25" since then. How much are you dropped now?

About 0.8 of an inch FR according to this...


So may be able to go lower, but with the Nismo nose I'm a little hesitant.

Bare with me, I'm new at all this wheel stuff but I've recently (through the help of forum members) learned that my stock 2012 Nismo wheels with a 25mm spacer in the front and a 20mm spacer in the rear bring my offsets to +22 and +10. (Hopefully that is correct). I'm looking to upgrade to a wider set of wheels for both front and rear. I'm aiming at 10 in the front and 11.5 rear. What offsets on a wheel that size would bring me to a similar for to what I have now? Obviously I'm not an expert here so if 10" or 11.5" is just too wide to retain that fitment I can always shrink down to 9.5 for the fronts and maybe 10.5"-11" rears. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Your Nismo wheels are 19x9.5+40Front & 19x10.5+23Rear,
A 25mm spacer up front will make you a +15 (aggressive) and the 20mm rear spacer will be a +3(aggressive) if your ~Z~ is not lowered or doesn't have excessive negative camber-these are going to stick out & possibly rub in the front?
With factory camber settings,,,A 19x9.5+25 is common/ as is a 19x10.5+12.
So a 15mm spacer up front & 10mm out back would do this;;;;unless you like your wheels to stick out.
Front spacing after the spacers I quoted is 4.25" front & 5.25" rear....should be close to flush to fender front & rear.
Lowering/excessive negative or mild camber changes all of this somewhat.
Pm me anytime & have your alignment numbers.... So you can stuff some fat wheels under there.
Nismo wheels aren't bad at all....room for more tire-especially the front.

I think I see what happened; someone thought you had sport wheels 19x9+47F & 19x10+30R,,,,that would make +22Front & +10Rear,after your 25/20mm spacers

Okay so right now I am lowered on coils about an inch maybe less, I have the OEM Nismo Rays with 25mm on the front and 20mm on the rear and I like where the face sits. What id like is to find a wider wheel for front and rear that will allow me to run without spacers and maintain a similar fit as my current set up. I want as wide as possible so I'm not sure as to how to find the right size vs. offset to accomplish my mission here without rubbing like a teen-aged boy.

[jchammond]

Any idea what your current camber specs are & are these spacers installed; if they're installed- do you rub now & what is your current tire size?
We can proceed if you know this, or have a really good idea,,,pics also help.
