Aftermarket wheels with NO drop
I plan on lowering mine, and I hate the monster truck look, so far the z34 isn’t to bad for it. So just trying to decide coils or wheels first. I know I want something with at least a 3” lip. So just want to see if anyone’s got anything similar

I'm looking to get some cr2p wheels. 19x9.5 in the front, and 19x10.5 in the rear with stock ride height. Any ideas on what the offset should be? I'm not trying to have massive wheel gap I just want it to look flush with the fender.

+23 or so in the rear
+30 in the front. Use this to visualize where the rims will be. https://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp 1. Place a strait edge across the front of your stock rims, and measure from straight edge to the fender to find out how much you need to move out. 2. Input your stock rims and tires into the calculator. Print off both front and rear for reference. 3. Input your desired set up and change the offset until the rim is sticking out as far as your earlier measurement. Don't be surprised that you can not find a rim with the exact offset you need. But a few mm off will not be noticeable.

Gap Man! NA NA NA NA GAP MAN!
All jokes aside you do what you want to do! If you don't want coils or lowering springs, then screw anyone who says otherwise. I remember when I was told to put spacers on my car to fill the wheel gap out. I just lol'd for two reasons - 1) No replacement for tire displacement and 2) Structural integrity. Bonus - most people who told me to do "this or that" drove nothing or their parents cars and putting two step systems on them. "LuK aT mY tWo sTep bRoOoO"

If you don't wanna do stuff to your car, cool
But don't be ignorant There are people who track their cars who run aggressive wheel specs with functional rubber. In fact, the common setup is 18x10.5 +18ish with 275 or 285 square Your stock height setup is just that. A stock height setup. Let's not pretend to be hip and special

The calculator shows 19x10.5 ET15 with tires 285/35 in case wider tire 305/30 offset needs to be +25 Correct me if I am wrong. |

Yes of course, if the tire is wider, you do not need as low of an offset.
Also different tire manufacturers have a different side wall profiles. PSS have a flat side wall profile which does not stick out much. The same size tire in a different make, might stick out more due to a different side wall profile. The calculator does not take this into an account.
