Hre 590rs
P0tential, its just you..
Shaddix, why did you decide on such aggressive widths? just curious... did you take a gamble on whether or not you were going to have fitment issues? I have never seen anyone else run a 19x12 on a Z. Looks dope, but are the fitment issues really worth it....

I saw Sylvan Lake's setup (his g35) and he's running hre's with 10.5 front and 12 rear, similar tires too. I asked him about his wheel specs, then just ordered similar offsets. I've always wanted a wide rear tire but only as long as it's slightly stretched, not just a fat tire on a 10.5 rim with the flat/round sidewall. I've had that and the car felt funny, moved laterally from side to side under acceleration. As for the front, I also wanted to run wider tires stretched, but didn't expect any rubbing issues at all, especially on the inside of the wheel. My fenders are rolled/pulled front and back, there is plenty of clearance left for these wheels. Hre wheels have that lip stickin out on the inside for no reason, so that's what was rubbing. Fixed that with a 3mm spacer up front, now will do the same for the rear. That's the only fitment issues i'm having, so I don't really consider it an issue at all. Should have got slightly lower offsets, like +15 all around would be perfect. There is a Z here with 13" rear wheels and 305 tires. He's claiming no fitment issues. But his offsets are probably much lower.
