19 inch square setup

I've searched and it doesn't look like a anyone is running a 19 inch square setup. Is that because it won't fit up front? I'm thinking of running a 19x10

Default 19 inch square setup

I've searched and it doesn't look like a anyone is running a 19 inch square setup. Is that because it won't fit up front? I'm thinking of running a 19x10 all the way around but I wanna know if it'll fit. Also I know that 18s are better for square setups but personally I feel like 18 are just too small for the z.

19x10 fits in the front. Just choose your offset wisely.

Also depends on what your goals are. Meaty flush (265 wide or more) = 19x10 +30 give or take 5mm each direction. Hellaflush (wide wheels, stretched tires, etc.) = 19x10 offset anything lower than that.

If you want proof that 19x10 fits up front with no problems, grab sport package wheels from the rear and throw them on the front. Bam. Works.

I don't know anything about offsets lol I'm looking for a square setup to track the car. I need an offset that'd let me fit alot of tire in the front, but also flush with the fender. And I want all my tires wheels and tires to be the same dimensions so I could rotate my tires. If be willing to run a spacer in the rear to be flush in the rear also.

Depending on what wheel you get, go with a 19x10 +35 to +30ish. You will be able to run a 275 or 285 tire. For the rear, I'd recommend a 20mm to 25mm spacer. Maybe even a 30mm spacer. I'm running stock sport package wheels, stock alignment, lowered on KWV3. Rear is stock 19x10 +30 275/35 with 30mm spacer and no problems. Good luck!

you are going to need spacers in the rear if you go with same size wheels all around, no way around that. 18 or 19 really doesnt matter, 18 tires are a bit cheaper which is why I went that way, but tire sizes suck in 18, so if I did it over, I would go 19

Mike

what will be your advise for 19"?

which one will you prefer 19x9.5, 19x10 or 19x10.5?

i will prefer to have my z to have the same offsets for easier rotation and handling wise.

OMGWTFBBQ what do you think of 10.5 all around. I seen that you inquired price on csl.5.5 concept one wheels but never seen any follow up about this. What is your 2 cents on this set up.

I just saw this, but I would go with 10" all around. 10.5" in the front is useless (in my opinion) because you can't fit a wide enough tire in the front to justify a wheel that wide. People put 305 tires on the stock sport package wheels and that's more than enough tire for the front.

So from my own personal opinion, if I were to do a square setup, I'd run 19x10 +25 to +30. Throw a spacer in the rear. Dial in some negative camber in the front. Enjoy driving. But that's just me.

I have a set of 19x9.5 +22 with 275/35/19 no problem. I have another set of 18x9.5 +15 with 295/30/18 no problem as well, just need bigger camber.

My front camber is -3 degree now and I still want to put around 10mm spacers to make it flush. My track wheel is 18x9.5 +15 with 295/30/18 tires and they're perfectly flush.
