Default Which Would Be More Aggresive?

(2Piece)Rays Lexion X503 wheels 19x10 +20 All The Way Around?



or

(3Piece) Aristo (DPE) 19x9 +18 and 19x10 +22 (GLOSS BLACK)



Possibly going to run a Stretched Tire.

Both for the same price!

I have 4 Falken 452's 235/35/19! Would it work?
Any info is gladly appreciated! Thanks!

Car is Black with a ings+1 Full Kit!

I would run the Rays Lexion wheels 19x10 +20 all around with a 25mm spacer in the rear... will look really nice. How low do you plan on going? You may need to run a 225 tire in the front.

I dont plan to go 2 low...I am lowered now, but i bought the car like this so i am not really sure of exact drop...

Would the 235/35/19 work on the front?

I like both wheels.....Just debating on which is best route for me...

the first option. just look at the width+offset and you can figure it out easily.

lower offset = farther out
wider rim, same offset = farther out

I like the first ones, though a 10 inch wide rim in the front will be tough I would think. but you will maximize your lip.

the 9/10 is the safer bet, you can just use spacers to flush it out exactly as you want.

FWIW I like the first set of rims better than the DPEs. And I hate black face rims :P

I am not teh dub masta. but:

I don't know what it would take to get a 10 inch wide rim to fit on the front of the Z.

For the rear, I would run at a minimum a 15mm spacer.

granted: with these rim fitments you need to know what you are doing. there are plenty of resources on this forum, but don't mess around with super crazy aggressive offsets unless you know what you are doing. gonna need fender modifications possibly, camber and toe adjustment and coilovers.

Dang..I gotca..See im not that full educated on the aggresive Offsets, and Camber, but I will prolly end up going with the Black on Black look, with a Flush Spacer Setup! Some Stretch and Close as possible to being flush! Maybe a 20mm spacer?

search around on the forum, there is a thread devoted to these fitments. people post up info, or you can PM them if they haven't.

best bet.

Trust me... a 10" wheel in the front with a +20 offset will work fine. For the rear... just roll your fender and add a 25mm spacer and stretch the tires all around and you will have a flush/aggressive wheel setup that works. Also... i think the black on a flush silver rim will look hot.

Do you have any picture examples? I would love to see how it will look...
Also do you have a 235/35/19 Falken 452 on a 10" wheel..

Here's how a 235/40/18 looks on a 18x10" wheel. This is a Direzza DZ101 tire. Perfect stretch imo.

Your front wheels will sit like this. Even though cheanyoung is running a 9.5 wheel with a different offset... they will sit basically the same distance to the fender when doing the offset/size calculations:




here is another pic of a 235 tire on a 10" wheel... (on this car it's 235/40/18)

I say go with the first one, would look hot on a black Z.

Also listen to what Status is saying if you want the true flush/aggressive look that you want to have. I agree with him 100%

1st option, duh. Run a 15-20mm spacer in the rear, though.
