Wheel Offset Discussion Thread... How far can we go?

[DETROITBOY27]

I've read this whole thread and still haven't found the answer to my question. I used the tire and offset calculators and I think I'll be o.k. But I'm still a little unsure.
19x9.5 +35 offset 265/40
19x10.5 +35 offset 295/35
I also have the option of plus +15 offset, I'm on stock suspension and I really don't want to get into any major suspension mods.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance

I figure the 20X10 will need to be somewhere around the +30 range, but what would a 20X11 or 20X12 need to be? This will be going on a 2011 Nismo dropped on ark springs 1.5"R 1.75"F with stock camber arms. I don't want any crazy negative camber or stretched tires, preferably a meatier set up. I'm more about function than form. Thanks for the info

20x10 front +27 with 275/30/20 continental DW
20x12 rear + 20 with 325/25/20 continental DW

this fit at oem height and camber (eventually lowered the car .5")

if thats meaty enough for you go for it.

since you wanna drop and then adjust camber maybe later on go with a +30 and +23 if you can.

I'm on swift drop springs no camber kit YET.

I have 19x9.5 -2 and 19.10 -11.

These are laying around from my Infiniti build and was wondering if I added a 10mm to the front will it sit flush? They dont clear the BBK and I tried a 5/16 spacer but still hit caliper =/
So couldnt see if it stuck out past the fender with them on or not.

Here's the wheels

Honestly I dont think those will work regardless.... The faces are flat and are not going to clear the Akebono's.. Do yourself a favor, sell those to the VIP crowd and buy yourself some new wheels with specs for a 370z... Hit up Mark @ Ravspec for advice and prices.

Would this be too aggressive? I'm currently on -2.5 camber in front and -3.3 camber in the rear. I'm planning to get this set up...
19x10 +0 with 245/35
19x11 +0 with 275/35
Opinion?? If you have pictures, please post it up. I wanna see how it sit

OK so I'm wanting a set of rays gram lights 57fxx.
The measurements come in at

19x9.5+15
19x11+18

So to speak the front should be 38mm further out and 26mm more inner clearance. And the rear should be 26mm further out and 1 mm less inner clearance?

I'm going to measure tomorrow, anyone run these wheels?

[Tempestz]

Just a quick question, looking at trading wheels with a friend,

18X10 +12 square set up

still stock height and I don't think im going to drop the car yet.
is this too aggressive? Thanks in advance for the input.

Fronts will stick out way too much ... I just had the 19x9.5 +25 fitted in my car and they were too aggressive, 35 would work much better for the fronts. I can't speak for the rears, but I think they would also stick out too much by about 5mm

Here's 19x11 +18 rear. No tire, but the suspension is compressed.

[Zerocool]

so the lower the offset number the more the wheel will stick out?

There are these varrstoen es552 wheels that I'd like to get.

website I'm looking at has them at
F 19x9.5 +22
R 19x10.5 +22


Will that be fine? excuse the ignorance.

I think you'll need 10mm spacers in the back

The rears fit perfectly with no spacers and doesnt stick out.

I bought some 15mm spacers and placed them on the front to clear BBK but stick out way to damn much. I guess its time to either re-barrel the fronts or sell them and get some other options.

Ok so I'm getting ready to order the new work emotion c2p wheels and I need some input. First my 370z has bbk's, coilovers and camber arms front and rear and a lot of hp. So what I'm wanting is maximum lip on the rear with widest tire as possible. And decent lip on front. I'm OK with some camber just nothing crazy. I am also willing to stretch the tires some but nothing extreme on this either. The wheels will be 19's also. So what's the best offset to achieve what I'm looking for?

I'm running 19x9.5, +28 in the front with 275/30-19 PSS. Was running 19x12, +25 rear with 325/30-19 PSS's. Perfect fit. Change the rear tires to 345/30-19 PSS's. Same rims. Now they poke some.
