Looking at Varrstoen 19x9.5 +12 F 19x10.5 +12 R

The rep at Varrstoen is telling me that 19x9.5 +12 will work up front since +22 are out of stock.

I have read tons of posts and it appears that anything under +15 is asking for trouble. Am I wrong?

OptionZero · 10-27-2016, 04:33 PM

Yes. It's fine. Might need some camber.

Most of those wheel are conservative as hell

The fronts will stick out a bit. I run 19x9.5 +20 with 265/35 tires and I can't even use a 5mm spacer. Not sure what size tires you plan on getting, but camber would help some. The rears are conservative IMO. I used 5mm spacers on my 19x11 +15 rears with 305/30 tires and it seems I could go a little wider.

You can run a spacer, but choose not to.

I could have, but the tires rubbed and stuck out too much for my taste. I wasn't going to get any more negative camber either. So there's that.

OptionZero · 10-28-2016, 11:53 AM

Yup. Like i said. You can. You didn't

Work VS-XX
19x11 +15 275/35
19x12 +10 325/30

OptionZero · 10-28-2016, 06:21 PM

You'll need camber but it'll look dope

downgrading the tire size for more stretch will obviously make it an easier fit

Yes the fronts will poke out past the fender more than you think... is there a lower offset for the rears you can do? At least it'll match better. And yes you will need quite a bit of camber to tuck the tires. More than what lowering spring will give.

planning to use the base 370z rear enkei wheels 18x9 +15 in all 4 corners. Drivers with different cars can attest, 275/35 on a 18x9" wide wheel still have performance advantages. I was just wondering if anyone is running the same tire and wheel, fitment and dimension configuration on the 370z platform. PICs if possible. curious about poke, any fender and camber adjustments to accommodate tire. also mention if your car is lowered because I'm still on stock suspension.

Side note: about to pull the trigger on a pair of rear wheels, actively looking on the internet. PM if selling in Ventura or LA county CA. Looking for Wheel Part Number: #62546 REAR Enkei Wheels for base 2010 370z

I just recently bought a 2012 base model and I'm looking into getting new wheels. I really like the look of the Forgestar CFV5 and I want to make sure the specs of the wheel I choose fit AND if I want to upgrade to the sport brakes later down the road that they will fit. Any help would be appreciated!

Okay so what would you recommend as far as specs? I want to keep the same width of 9/10 F/R mainly for tire size.

lizzzys · 11-02-2016, 09:04 AM

Looking at getting Avant Garde F211,s can someone help with with what kind of offset i need to clear akebonos, was thinking of going 20x11.5 rear, 20x10 front, I'm open to tire sizes, was thinking something like 305/30 rear, 275,30 front? I have coils currently running factory spec camber. not looking to stretch tires or go much more than -2 camber.

thanks
Liam
