Nissan 370Z Forum  

Anyone running a non-staggered setup?

pics with 15mm spacers on the rear. 25 are definitely optimum, but 15s work for the track, plus they keep me from throwing so much garbage on the back bumper.

thanks, although I decided last night to switch to the stune 19s for the track and sell these. Got a good deal on some Nismo wheels for street use.

I'd like 1000 plus shipping, but I need to hear back from a friend who was interested first

I'm running 18x10 +15 all around. The offset is definitely not ideal for a track setup, especially since I have a 30mm spacer in the rear. Should have gone for a slightly less aggressive offset so I can get wider tires than the 255/40 I'm running now. -2.3 degrees front and -2.0 degrees rear camber.

would I have any issue with 18 x 10 +20 all around?
I want to fit 265/35/18 all around as well.
I plan on fitting 15mm spacer in the back just to show, but will take them out on trackdays.

So what ever happened with this non-staggered setup?

Right. I thought you might have already done it for ZDayZ. Will it really be a lot better for the track? If so, I will definitely do it whenever I decide to upgrade to Sport/Nismo wheels.

I'm still on stock everything for wheels/tires.

I am going to see how balanced everything is with new sways, but I suspect I will be running 9.5's all around for track duty to try to dial out the understeer that is so prevalent in the Z.

Would it be better to keep the base 18's for track duty? Like get another pair of base 18 rears and run them all around? I was thinking that whenever I get the Sport/Nismo wheels, I could get either 4 fronts or 4 rears and run a squared setup like you were talking about.

I don't think they will clear the big brakes. It's pointless anyway, you can get bigger tires in there with the bigger rims. I run 9.5" wheel all around with 285 on one set, 9 and 10 with 285 on the other set.

Good point. I still have the base brakes but will definitely upgrade in the future.
