Bump because i'm looking at these wheels and need to know what size / offset to use for 18" fitments. Any ideas?

I bought 19's. Go to elementwheels.com. They will give you offset recommendations in numerous styles that are guaranteed to fit your car. I went staggered... see site. Choses the staggered ones you want in whatever front and rear sizes you are interested and they will make the offset recomendations for you. Cheap prices too. I think I paid around $1100 shipped

The grey one has the following TSW Interlagos and tyres:
20x8.5'' ET20 245/35ZR20 Falken FK452 20x10.5'' ET25 285/30ZR20 Falken FK452 The offset of front ET20 and rear of ET25 put the wheels more outside than the stock ones, calculated from the edge of the original 19" mags: front: +21mm more outside rear: +11mm more outside So the edge of the Interlagos wheels ends up very nicely with the fenders - no spacers required at all. To lower the car is a matter of taste and usability but with a ground clearance of 115-120mm the car is already quite low to the ground. And as 20'' the wheels fill the housing very nice...just my opinion. But the Falken are very noisy on the road and to be considered as cheap tyre. I put on my white one 255/35 and 295/35 Pirelli P Zero on it and it's just perfect. Here some weights: 19x8.5 21.15 19x9 21.45 19x9.5 21.55 19x10.5 23.9 20x8.5 22.25 20x9 23.85 20x9.5 23.6 Last edited by AndyR1; 01-28-2012 at 06:04 PM. |

TSW's
Ive been shopping for wheels this winter and keep on coming back for a look at the TSW's. Ilike Vertini's and others but the TSW's look just as good. Haven't pulled the trigger yet but will. Deciding between my stock 18's or 19's with new tires also. That way I can interchange with my soon to have 390Z next year.

We carry TSW, although we don't have the Interlagos listed. I need to let the web team know about that. If anyone wants pricing, just PM me.
Honestly I used to think TSW wheels were kinda "meh" but after riding in my friends car and seeing how little regard he has for potholes, I can say that their quality is great. He's running a 30 or 40 series tire and drives around like he's got a 65 series tire lol. His wheels show no damage. I've worked on the car, driven it, and ridden in it. No vibrations, and no visible issues.

Ya, looked at too many wheel threads and then realized it was already posted... duh, I know.
But I would like to see if anyone has them on their Z besides the pics in this thread and the google mayhem. Thanks. |
