350z track setup help
hello all fellow Z owners. For the past couple months I have been actively going to the canyons in my spare time and want to really track me car eventually. First thing I want to do is invest in some te37's, however, some of the specs have me at a crossroads. I am looking at 18x9.5 with 12mm offset, however, i am seeing other people comment against it. i will pair the wheels with a nice set of coils, so im just wondering if I will rub or hit my brakes (Brembo brakes, and ive heard sometimes they tend to hit). Is the 12mm offset good for what I'm trying to do? Or should I go up a notch? Any and all help is greatly appreciated, and if you have any more tips for canyon/track please leave them down below along with any other suggestions. Happy driving!

If your car has near stock weight balance than you could consider an 18x9.5 square setup if you want to dial out some of the on-throttle understeer. If you’re taking a bunch of weight off the back of the car (really the only place to lose weight easily on the Z33) adding more rear tire and/or a softer (relative to the front) sway bar can help bring back some of the balance as the rear grip goes down with less weight over the axle.
For an 18x9.5, anything in the +20 to +25 should work. Have a look around, lots of people have run TE37s on the Z over the decades.
