I put my wheels on my girls 370z. I have 20 by 9 +15 and for some reason they were sticking past the front fenders. I'm sure with a drop they might tuck nicely though.

why are u trying to go negative offsets and go crazy camber why not just get proper fitting wheels? on my sport rims im running 25mm spacers all around and they tuck in very nicely on a 1.5 inch drop so essentially im running 19x9 +12 and 19x10 +5

I'm into the stanced scene and just want to see whats the limit I can push without having to do massive bodywork. I'm not asking for approval or start a flame war I just know the 350 guys r more into poke and fitment than the 370 guys so I'm just asking for some help.

i seen guys doing -65 offset for 20" rims on 370 z
did they need body work , i don't know

but if you wanna run 20" wheels with negative offsets in the high teens than i would imagine that a roll and pull might be it , i would guess that no body work is needed to run a -1 thru -20 offset on a 370z in 20"

You are back with a 370Z? Congratulations.

10.0 and 12.0 inch wheels are pretty crazy but it can be done. You will just have to go with a serious tire stretch.

The wheels I'm looking at are 20x10 -15 and 20x12 -10. The rears don't concern me, it's the fronts. Do you think that's too aggressive even at lets say -5 or 6 camber?

Edit: And I forgot to mention that this will be on a factory Akebono setup
I don't get it. Your friend ran a ridiculously silly amount of camber to make wheels fit, and you are trying to go 25mm more aggressive in the front (1") and 10mm more aggressive in the rear.

I don't understand either...

Just go flush with a little poke if you want, but make is reasonable.

Op wants to push the limit! Lol

If I'm not mistaken, I think 350z front can take more aggressive wheels than 370z, right???

But if it's the opposite then, some member just put 11.5 +7 on the front, pretty crazy..lol

In the rear the 370z swallows wheels, I'd go wide as possible, atleast 13in wide think about it op

20x12 +0 does not need -6.5 degrees camber on a 370z.

You can get a 12 +0 to squeeze in there at a -3 degree range.

honestly the fenders on the 370 are so huge and ive seen 370z and 350z run 19x11 and 19x13 negative offsets with no major body work except for pulling the hell out of your fenders and a **** load of cambers it just wouldn't look good in my opinion it looks kinda goofy but if u want a clean aggressive stance look i would do 19(20) x 10 neg in the fronts and 19(20) x 12 in the rear with negative offsets but not like in the teens more like -6 and -12 or something and you would only have to pull the front a little and slight camber and it will look clean not like goofy and over done where its like 19x13 -17 or something lol. btw from personal experience i slammed my 370 on 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 wheels and they camber in like a ***** so don't worry about not fitting 19x10 haha
