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.

But my distributor rekons I will have to use spacers to clear the Akebonos with this fitment.

Anyways I will find out soon when they arrive. Still another 8 weeks wait apparantly...

You've been told multiple times by multiple people that DISC TYPE controls brake clearance

Work S1 3P in 19x9.5, +17, according to their spec chart, is T-disc, their biggest brake clearance design, so it should be fine. Lots of folks are running that wheel (dom_zee, CarbonFZ)

you're just being dense

Offset, tire size and camber are key

Dude should tell us what suspension he's gonna be running

I'm on Bc coils with the bank Max'd out and the front half way, what tire size and offset are you running while getting the less amount of camber

I have looking at ROTiform dus

[OptionZero]

I'm running 20x11 +15 front with a 275/30/20; 20x12 +20 rear with 315/25/20
Front camber is -3; rear is -2

The rear of the Z can fit damn near anything. I coulda probably run another 5mm spacer. Folks are doing 20x11 +0 with 285/30/20 easily. Anything in that range, you're gonna fit easily.

Fronts, i had rolled the front fenders and had to trim the bumper tab due to how low i was

I would recommend as an aggressive fitment 20x10.5 with a 245 or 255/35/20, around +22. Shouldn't take much camber.

Invest in SPL front upper control and rear arms. It'll be worth it.

If you wanna be chicken you can run something like 20x9.5 +20 and 20x10.5 +12. I dont think thats flush but that around a standard te37 fitment that people do without adjustments

you should read through this thread and the "how far can we go" threads, find a fitment you like, and copy that or as close as possible

also, rotiforms aren't cheap - if you're gonna get expensive wheels GET ADJUSTABLE SPL ARMS and do it right, and get a good fitment. do it right ONCE

Yes that is correct lots of people are running this setup and have told me it is fine, those are the reasons why I went ahead and ordered them 2 months ago.

I was just stating what my Distributor told me!

[OptionZero]

and like we said your distributor is a ******* dumbass

[jchammond]

Oh no,,,someone said (D/A)....I get in trouble at work for saying it...lol
Gonna stuff 19x10/12's under mine w/285/35 & 345/30's.
Look-Out....and with a maximum of -1.0* camber on all 4; preferrebly -0.5*

Hi guys! I want to know if I install a 265/35/18 and 285/35/18 tires on a 18x9.5+22 and 18x11+16 wheels, im going to have problems with the traction control... someone told me that if I install the 265/35/18 on front, im going to refuse the traction control... is this true? Thanks!

[OptionZero]

I don't know why it would

Are you talking about the width? I and others have run wider and been fine

I know some people are using a wider tire than that on front... I think that the guy that told me that dont know what he are talking about... maybe he told me that cause our cars usually use a side wall of 40 insteed of 35... dont know really lol. Well thanks for tour help dude! Im going to buy the 265/35/18 for the front and 285/35/18 for the rear

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!

[OptionZero]

lug nuts yes
studs no unless you're running spacers

Spacers for brake clearance? leaning no, because the design that the wheel copies, the Volk Racing TE37, clears pretty much anything. However, they may have changed the design due to their manufacturing process (clearly not forged)

EDIT:
According to this thread, it will not clear brakes without spacer

Hey guys,

I'm looking to get some wheels that already come with the right amount of offset to fill the fenders. So I wont need spacers. What is a good amount of offset that would be safe for the track or does it matter?

A few forum members have shared with me the specs below. (Those who have helped please feel free to continue to chime in on this thread)

Front 19x9.5 +22
Front Tire 265/30
Rear 19.10.5 +12
Rear Tire 305/30

Stock Sport Suspension

They say no rubbing. Although there might not be any rubbing on the street, what about when the wheel goes deeper into the wheel well on the track. Also, any track concerns with that offset? Are you still able to manage the camber without upper control arms?
