Ill be running a 19x11 +18 with a 285. I did a test fit and it definitely needs a roll. I agree the front offset is a little strange. My fronts are +15.

Default 19" wheel setup help

i will be purchasing a wheel setup in the next few weeks but i need some help with my setup.

im doing 19X10 all around with a 235/35 tire. i really like the corse dynas for my daily driver but wheel dude no longer offers them for the 350z, so im thinking of ordering them for the bmw with a 5x120 bolt pattern and buy wheel adapters. offsets would be 15 front and 15 rear would that be fine? i will be as low as i can go ...any thoughts on the thickness of the adapters for that flush fitment? i really dont want to pull my fenders but wouldnt mind rolling the rear.

its just my preference in a wheel setup the varainzas are discontinued and a bit pricy for my daily. gramlights 57 theres nothing similar on the market again pricy.

i just need some help in the setup. they offer the dynas for the g35 sedan but i think the offset are a bit high in the 30's so i figured the lower offset of the would prob be better.

Theres plenty of z's with the 745 setup so this would not be to much different. i think there is a offset of 22 i could look into also.

The adapters will easily be 30 to 38mm, the same as running a large spacer on the proper lug pattern wheel.

@Zmindset... I would not go with a cumbersome and expensive wheel adapter.

If I were that determined to go with a specific wheel, I would buy the car that it fits rather than spending money on an adapter that I hoped will fit the car I already own.

for around 150 -200 i dont think its too expensive. i get your point. its not ideal to run spacers but plenty of people on here do. most people have 40lb systems in there car which would be cumbersome but we still have them. im just simply looking for some insight with those who have used the conversion adapters and or who are offset guru's

your fenders are gonna have fun with 10 inch wide wheels and the spacers and being slammed and all haha. theyre plenty of nice wheels around where you dont have to go with 5x120. check the marketplace you can find greats deals on a nice set for yourself. your gonna need upper a arms in the front if your going super slammed (obvs camber arms in the rear) and possibly other goodies to get her back into alignment. id just stay away from adapters..

would a bolt pattern of 5x114 for the g35 sedan with a 19x10 +38 offset make more sence?

Default Pics of 19x10 F and 19x11 R

Trying to decide on a setup I wanna do. I just want to see some pics so I can make up my mind. I'm looking for 19x10 F and 19x11 R with 235/35/19 F and 255/35/19 R with some mildly aggressive offsets. I tried looking for that setup on a Z and no luck so far. If someone could provide a pic that would be awesome, thanks.

I would bump up tire heights for closer to stock tire heights. 245/35 front and 265/35 rear

It's hard to find a quality 265 for a decent price. I want to run hankooks but they don't make a 265. I'm trying to have more of a stretch anyways, going for an aggressive look.

Default 225/40/19 vs 245/35 up front

Anyone here opt for 225/40/19 (on 8.5-9.0) up front to go with 275/35s in the rear (on 9.5-10.5)? Standard front match would be 245/35s, but I was curious since you do have more sidewall. I think this would just be within specs..2% difference vs 3% for VDC. Just curious.

Well just to close the loop on this, I ended up getting the S-04 Pole Positions. As you said, the 275 are not causing any issue with the VDC, and in my opinion the 275 looks better than the factory 265 on the rear tires.

As far as driving comparisons, I've only driven on the factory RE050A, but so far, the S-04 are much more quiet than the factory tires. I'm pleased!

Looks good. Coilovers and spacers will make a huge difference.

Default NEED HELP with 19" offsets for my 350ZR

Hey I need help deciding which will fit better between my 2 choices. I am looking for a very aggressive look, but with absolutely no rubbing.

I have a 2004 350Z Roadster with stock suspension and NO Brembo option, just the regular ugly calipers.

Wheels are:
19x9.5 front
19x11 rear

offsets can either be +12 front/+15 rear OR +22 front/+25 rear

Trying to figure out which offsets to go with.

I would go with the +12/15, thats an aggressive setup I think you are looking for, since you are on stock suspension you shouldn't be rubbing at all
