The MB Vectors are only available in 18x8+38 which is more sunk in than an OEM wheel; pass on those. The only Drag DR-37s in acceptable sizes for the Z is either 19x8.5+20 (front) 19x9.5+20 (rear) if you want a staggered set up or 19x9.5+20 all around if you want a square set up. If those are your only options I would opt for 19x9.5+20 all around.

Thinking about buying Work M.C.O.
Front Spec: 18x9.5 +22 (semi concave face)
Front Spec: 18x10.0 +20 | 18x10.0 +15 (mid concave face)
Rear Spec: 18x10.5 +12 | 18x10.5 +20 | 18x11.0 +18 (full concave face)
What offset would guy recommend?
Trying to go for 265/35F and 285/35R for tires.
I'll be lower with coilovers.
Rear fenders are rolled.
Have rear camber but no front camber

Trying to figure out what tire size to go with up front. My current setup is
255/35/18 +15f
285/35/18 +15r
Continental extreme contact dw tires and
lowered on sport lines.
I screwed up when I got the 255 for the front and now wanting to change. I was thinking maybe a 275/35 or should I stick with a 265/35 up front?

Needing some help. Main goals include more aggressive fitment/look, lateral or increased performance from stock, works with Vdc, still functional. Wheels would be 18'x9.5 +12 up front 18'x10.5 +12 backs. Tires 245/45/18 & 275/40/18. Opinions and help greatly appreciated! Thanks.

I did the calculations via tire calculator and the actual sidewall height is exactly the same. Am I'm missing something? I'm sure you've seen this question before, thanks again.
