The "Will it fit?" thread

[DanDrescher]

Here is a question on a squared 20X10.5 setup- besides fitment who much power is really lost by doing this?

Lowered on Swift Springs - 16 Base Z
20X10.5 +30 Squared

265/35/20 F
295/35/20 R

I never bothered to look into these details because theoretically, what one loses in power, one gains in traction and aesthetics. It depends on the rotational weight of your wheels and tires. All negligible IMO unless you're competing. If you do compete, you don't use your 20" wheels, do you? For what it's worth, I dyno'd my old 350Z on the OEM 18" wheels and tires first, then installed 19" TE37s with 255/285 tires. The numbers were identical.

Finally about to get wheels but want to make sure I'm not going too wide. Driving a 2016 Nissan 370Z nismo with stock 9.5 front and 10.5 back. Would 20x10 front 20x12 back be too much while trying to maintain a flush with the ground set up. Don't know much about offset

They will fit; As long as you know your camber settings & what size tires you're gonna be running.....on a 2" stagger wheel (10,12's) (9,11's) etc...offset will be very close to the same on front & rear wheels.
Post your alignment specs & we can help you with offsets

What brand / model wheels were you looking at? Caliper clearance on your Akebono brakes is important. Because you may need a spacer depending.

Fronts depending on tire size / camber specs should be around 20x10.0 +22 or higher.

Rear should be around 20x12.0 +20 or higher.

Hello everyone!

I am super noob about rims. I am looking at getting some Vaarstoen ES222 wheels with Front 19x9.5+22 (255-35-19) Rear 19x10.5+12 (305-30-19). I am worried if I will need spacers to have clearance for Akebono brakes and if I will need to buy anything extra like aftermarket lug nuts and/or studs.

Thanks for replies in advance!
