Chris, any new shots of the Z? I really wanna see how flush this is on the fender. Also, what were the original offsets and what spacers are you using? I'm thinking of going 18x9.5 +20 rear with 10mm spacer so +10 and 18x8.5 +20 front with 5mm spacer so +15 effectively but I'm not sure its gonna fit.

What offset would be needed for 20x9.5 front and 20x10.5 rear with appropriate tires so that it wouldnt rub or clunk with an Eibach Prokit drop? I ordered some Iforged Seneka's but am thinking of changing it to the above sizes since I read some have done this without rubbing issues....Thanks

btw is did a search and didnt get a definitive answer...

Anybody???I cant reach Avalon Racing this week as they are away at an auto show...I would really appreciate the offsets some of you used to make the 20x9.5 fronts and 20x10.5 rears work without rolling the fender or rubbing with a Prokit drop..would really like to know before they start making the rims so I can change to the wider size...Again any help would be appreciated...

I would say +30 would be fine with you. Im running a 10.5" rear slammed with 285/35 and I had to roll the fender from BARELY rubbing, so if you did +30 you should be more than fine

When you go from one extrame to the other... the answer is yes. There is a range of offsets that would be acceptable for each width of wheel width.

Then I've got to make a decision between the Volks and the Axis Reverbs (pic attached). I hear some folks have had issues with their Axis Hiros (cracking) and I'm pretty sure Volk makes a better wheel, although I bet they are more expensive than Axis.

Thanks!
The Axis Reverb is not a popular 350Z wheel, but I like the hollow spoke concept.

Kind of. Study offset with a diagram in front of you. The concept isn’t too difficult if you know what offset is.

A wheel with a negative offset is tucked under the car. A positive offset pushes the wheel “out” towards the fenders. So when we talk about more or less offset it depends if you are talking about positive or negative numbers.
