Default 18inch rays volk TE37 on 19" sport package breaks

hi everyone,

new to the forum. been researching on getting a new car... pretty much deciding between a one year old 2008 IS350 or a brand new 370Z.

anyways, does anyone know if the 18 inch volk TE37s will fit on a 370Z equipped with the 19 inch sports package that has the larger breaks?

thanks!

With the right offset anything will fit

Not only the offset, but the inner diameter of the rim hoop. Some 18" wheels will fit, some wont fit over the rear caliper. I test fit an 18" Axis wheel on my 370Z when I first got it and the rear calipers rubbed the inner hoop of the wheel by probably 1-2mm.



It will depend on that design aspect of the wheels too. I know there are 18s out there that will clear.
