Those wheels are horrible. lol.

My specs are 20x9.5 +1 (+6 with 5mm spacer) 20x10.5 -12 Full reverse lip. R disk in front/ O disk in rear. like 5.5" inch lip i think in rear.

Camber at normal ride height is like -2.5/2.7

Pic from last year at static height.

Lol, your car made me want these wheels btw. Saw it on IG.

You think they will look just as good without lowering the car with the right fitment?

Also, is that the brushed finish?

I thought it was called Machining Silver but i don't see that on their site. Probably called Brushed Silver Clear

Looks are subjective.. But I'm not going to lie I think it will look silly without it being lowered. You really should consider it.

the RE11's will make you feel like you're cheating cause of how controlled and predictable at the limit of adhesion.

RE11 sound good to me. I am definitely going with those tire sizes. Thanks for the advice. And I want to add that I 100% agree with you on your post that says wheel shops or manufacturers need to do more researched on stock height cars when recommending wheels sizes. I usually just here 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +12 or other offsets that would only look good when lowering the ride.

Thanks! I really appreciate that! Looking forward to ordering whatever you decide on next week.

I appreciate your honesty.. I feel these wheels look a lot better on lowered cars. Every 370 I have seen that has these wheels has at least Swifts... Have not seen any at stock height. And yes they are called Brushed Silver Clear.

since you're going 19's with appropriate offsets for stock height, they will look good, i think. it wont look like that picture above though with the 20's and lowered.

if you're going for dress up definitely lower your ride. my G is my dress up car and she is definitely lowered.

my Z will remain stock height for

Yes I see what you mean. It will still look good. Plus these are the only 5 spoke wheels with a lip that i would consider purchasing. I like everything about them. The only criticism I can give these wheels are that the spokes could have a little more to them... if that makes sense.

I will not be lowering my Z ever. This is why it is taking me so long cause I want the fitment to be right.

Any recommendations on wheel Brands where I can specify offsets Kenchan?

yah, those wheels are a simple design, but i think it works well since they are wide spokes. kinda reminds me of old Kahn wheels.

wheels with lips are usually heavy so i havent done much searching for the Z.

honestly the nismo wheels are my favorites when it comes to 5 spokes. it's got concavity, fits the car correctly, and light weight. and the new gunmetal ones can be had at like almost 1/2 the price of my hyper silvers.
