because it is a wheel and tire thread.... they are just trying to keep the forum organized

 

ok well I will be going with some general tire Gmax as-3 i think it is. any thoughts on those?

 

A friend just bought an 09 AM Vantage and had new tires put on locally. They were the wrong size so after a month he figures it out and Discount Tire replaced them.

The "used" tires are available cheap and I am looking for a set for my car but they are mis-matched...

Would these work?

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S-
245/45/19 & 275/35/19...Front diameter 27.7" vs Rear 26.2"

How adverse would the handling and look be?

My wheels- 19 x 9 & 19 x 10. ~410whp.

 

The rear tires will be great for you, I would grab them

 

Looks good chris. How much camber, if any, are you running?

19x9.5 +12 255/35 F
19x10.5 +12 305/30 R

I don't know how many threads I have read on wheel offsets, offset calculator, tire calculator but I can't find the answer to my question...

I got Niche Milan wheels for 2008 Z, stock suspension and everything. All I want to know is whether they will fit. About to order tires this Friday as well. If someone could help me out...that'd be great cuz at this point I am just thinking of giving up and selling those rims and not change the wheels anymore.

The specs are:
FRONT: 19x8.5 +35 offset
REAR: 19x9.5 +35 offset

Tyres will be:
FRONT: 245/35/19
REAR: 275/30/19

ANY spacers I should be using to not have the rears and/or fronts collide with the suspension? I checked and the offset calculator says that the rears will go inward about 15mm (~0.59 inch) and extend outward by 11mm(~0.43 inch).
Thanks guys!
If you think I have not searched enough then just tell me where I need to go to find that damn wheel/tire combination

 

they will fit, might be a little sunk in though... that is about factory offsets if they have like a +15 or even +23 it will come to the edge of the wheel well more

 

That's a very weak setup, go 9.5/10.5 and look for offsets around 25 if you don't want to roll the fenders. You risk rubbage with spacers, I like my 19s with a bit of poke, running 19x10/11 +10 on 245/275-35.

 

and if I run like a 5mm or 10mm spacers, I can have them come out a bit more right?? Rolling fenders isn't an issue for me if that will prevent rubbage.

 

That's the thing though, I am not looking for a mean or aggressive setup. I just like those wheels. I haven't been able to find good looking 5 spoke wheels like those milans or Vossen CV3s that have low offsets. Everything comes in 19" for that design and offsets are crazy high. So stuck with it for now. Thank you for the reply!

 

with a 10mm spacer on all corners it will look okay....

 

Perfect. I appreciate the reply a lot. One last question and I will be on my way. What if I ran 15mm spacers? mathematically that would mean now my offset shifts to a +20mm from +35mm? and MAYBE the rims can sit flush or almost flush with the wheel well or is that not how this works?

 

you are correct, or you could just buy better offset wheels and skip the spacers.... but that is up to you

 

Great. Thanks

 

275/35-19 is the rear tire you should be looking at. I would probably just get 20mm spacers and be good, actually I would order different wheels

 

I would and want to but nothing fits my taste. I hate BBS or XXRs or all other wheels that look like those. Five spokes and that is what I want to put on there which kills a lot of choices out there. BUT, all that aside...you are saying 20mm on all four corners? that would require rolling right?

Currently, I am about to get 10mm in the front and 15mm on the back based on the tire offset calculator but still searching the hell out of this site for anything I can find for those calculations.

 

My new wheels: Ultimate Performance 720.

19x9.5 ET25 Sqaure.
Ohtsu FP8000 255/35/19 Front 285/35/19 Rear

 

That right there shows me that you don't know much about wheels and/or what you're doing.

Anyways 5 spoke 19 inch wheels with a 20 ish offset?
Here, Enkei RP03,
You could do 19x9 +18 F
19x10 +22 R

Here's the size chart for the wheels in case you wanna look.

Yes I do not and that is why I am on this. I suppose somehow my disliking of a certain brand (and by extension their designs) of wheels shows my n00bness. Thanks for the reply though!

Got my answers, and bought the tires/spacers.
Thanks all for helping.

 

Anybody have a setup close to 19x10.5/11.5 +6? I just picked up a set of wheels and I'm trying to visualize just how aggressive they will be. Rimtuck didn't have anything too close...
