Looking at some xxr 526 wheels. Cant decide what color I want that will go better with the lemans. I'm really diggin the chromium black. But what do you guys think?

 

what size and offset are you going with

 

I'm debating between 17x9 +25mm 17x10 +20mm. And either. 18x9 +35mm or +25mm ( can get either, just dont know which is better) and 18x10.5 +20mm

 

me personally i would do the 18's, and you want a lower number for the offset.... a +15 will put it pretty close to even with the wheel well on the rears

 

Alright so ill stick with the 20/25 and get spacers. I kind of want the 17s since they're lighter lol. Isnt like our cars are really all that fast.

 

it would be preferred not to have spacers....the reason i recommend the 18's is because if you go with 17s you will have more gap between the fender and the wheel.... the 18 will fill that up more

 

Even though this thread is about wheel color, if you want to look more into wheel specs, check out rimtuck.com

 

I understand that but with my 17s on the now and its pretty close to where if u look at it from the side u can see a gap with it being lowered now. I just want to be able to fully turn still etc

 

we have the same spring remember, i do not rub with my 18s

 

Oh yeah lol. What size do you have on your fronts?

 

right now i am running 18x9 +30, but i just bought new rears so my current rears are going up front 18x9.5 +23 (might get a 5 mm spacer to make it +18) my rears are going to be 18x9.5 +15

 

I would get as close to 18x9.5 +15 f / 18x10.5 +15 r staggered as possible...

Not a fan of XXR's but those specs are great for a Z as proven by thousands of RPF1 owners.

You can fit 285/35 in the rear with 18x10.5 +15 with a minor roll to prevent any rubbing.

 

Yeah im not wanting to roll my fenders im not sure if anyone around here does that. Have to look around. What do you do about the tpms system?

 

Are you still going to be able to run 40 series? Or will you have to go to 35s?

 

i should be okay with the 40's

 

Alright good. I still want to be able to get tires for free lmao. What do you do about the tpms though?

 

they will take the sensors out and put them in the new ones

 

Oh so if I take it somewhere to be done theyll do it? Thats cool didnt no that, I always mount and balance my own.

 

What color should I go with though? Gloss black, chromium black, or flat silver? And im actually starting to debate putting that wide of tires in the back im starting to think maybe just a 18x9 or 9.5

 

I'm running a 18x9.5 +12 up front with 255/35/18 and 18x10.5 285/35/18 and I'm lowered on coil overs. I don't rub anywhere in the wheel wells... only the front bumper on my driveway haha

Honestly if i was to buy tires again today i would of went with a 40 profile. a little bit more meat = softer ride.

hope this helps
