Default Need help for wheel fitment - link to wheel section inside

We usually communicate faster in this forum! Aha!

I asked for opinion on the fitment of a "TireRack rear wheel" to the front axle. The suggested front fitment is rediculously slim (225/275 combo not good!)

Here's the link to the other topic: https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....57#post4775657

If any of you can confirm the fitment, please let me know!

Front choices:

SSR Type C RS in 19x9.5 +30mm offset

Or

SSR Type C RS in 19x9.5 +45mm offset

To go with the rears:

SSR Type C RS in 19x10.5 +30mm offset

Edit: corrected rear rim width
I'm posting the information above from your other thread. It would help to know what size tires you're considering on mounting. I have an autocross setup running 275/40 tires mounted on 17x9 (+35mm offset) rims in front, with 10mm spacers.

Not knowing what size tires you're considering, the +30mm offset (same as OEM offset) will probably work better than the +45mm offset (may rub inside with wider tires).

I'm running the 17" SSR Comp-h rear fitment on all 4 wheels. They're 17X9.5 +35 (with 5mm spacer up front to clear the inside upright). I've run up to a 275 hoosier on them.

I'm running a 275/30/19 up front on a 19x9.5 +22 wheel and I've yet to rub both on the street and on track. There's actually a surprising amount of clearance left between the tire and the fender too.

Edit: BTW, this is with Toyo T1R street tires.

I just got my new set-up.

17x10 5zigen FN01RC's with 25 offset
275/40 NT01's all around.

Not sure about fitting a 10.5" rim in the front unless you will be using a narrower tire. Mine barely fit in the front.

***edit***

Didn't notice you were going for a stagger set-up. Definitely go with the 30mm offset, you might rub a little in the front depending on the tire bulge. If you do a 5mm spacer will fix it.

Cool, Thanks guys!

I wasn't sure because I know that the 5Zigen FN01R-C in 17x10 +35mm does NOT fit in the front but the 17x9 +35mm do... It was kind of a wild guess...

Time to convince the body shop now! Let's get a "free" new wheel setup and sell the other 2 OEM wheel that are still intact!

3,500$ for 2 OEM Track wheels... Insane!

9.5 +30 should fit but it depends a LOT on spoke design. That's the NISMO LMGT4 Rear fitment (in 18 not 19 but whatever)
