Default questions before rim and springs purchase

Haven't had much luck finding any info on this.... wondering if this setup will rub?

front offset: 30mm
Rear offset: 25mm

eibach pro's 1.0" drop front+rear.


Thanks for the help...

very very very very conservative sizes - going to be very tucked into your fenders

also, that is alot of stagger to run front to back and the wrong rear tire size

sounds to me like perhaps you spoke to one of those generic wheel places you see advertised in the magazine and they are quoting you what they have in stock...not necessarily what is correct for your car

Your stock wheels have an offset of 30 mm all around. Tires you should get are 245/35 F & 275/35 R - 19s

FYI - I bought the Eibach pro-kit to drop my car, but now not sure if I wanna do it yet. I might be selling this kit. Box is unopened.

I have the Hotchkis springs and waiting to install my 19x11 +36, 285/35(R) on my Z. Been told there shouldn't be any rubbing issue.
