you can stretch the tires but these are most ideal from my research

Thadragon · 01-11-2015, 12:22 AM

but do you think this wheel will fit on my Z without doing any fender roll?

zefaulter · 01-11-2015, 12:49 AM

front not sure. rear is good

From my calculations,your sitting out past your fender by 18 to 20 mm up front. Your going to have some poke. I think you need to roll your fenders,buy some front camber arms and I would suggest you stay 245 up front which will at least give you a very,very slight stretch which is better than ballooning your tire for your aggressive fit. The stock 9" rim with a +47 takes roughly 20mm to sit flush with fender. So that puts you at +27 at 9" so the offset differance is 27-12 for your new rim offset which = 15 mm past the fender. Than you need to add 6mm for the extra 1/2 in width of your new rim (quarter inch to each side of the centreline of the rim.
I think it aggressive up front.

That made my head hurt.

With your specs and offset compared to stock,the front extends 41mm farther than stock and the back extends 28mm farther than stock.

this is a matter of taste but 20mm spacers dont make stock fronts flush 100%. They still need maybe 5mm more but I haven't tried it myself.

Lol,made sense in my head! It's abit confusing. It took me a bit to grasp offset and how it works.

I agree. Even so,it will still stick out another roughly 15 mm. I don't know how much camber it would take to make it tuck properly,but running a wider tire up front might not be choice.

So confused with these offsets..but anyway i have spl upper control arms .i guess i wont be needing my spacers on y car..lol.. I think this varrstoen wheels are alright wheels ,what do you guys think?VAR.jpg

I would look at as many threads as you can. Find somebody with a similar setup and find out pros and cons. Pm guys questions who look like they have some experience. Im sure they would gladly help out.
