10.5 + 13 ????? I'd have to see that to believe it. You're going to have to provide some credible proof as in pics or posts here that a 10.5 +13 will work. I had a 10.5 +22, and that was the limit. There wasn't another 1cm of room. I am lowered 1 1/4 in the rear.

Well like he said he has a 265 tire.
Rim manufacturers are different, your fenders are not rolled, and camber also affects fitment. You just can't just jump straight into an assumption.
Don't get me wrong..It's a tight fit but it'll be fine with that tire.
smellslikecurry, what wheels are they by the way?

265 tire or not.... it still wouldn't work. It doesn't matter who manufacturers the rim. Offset is offset. How do you know if my fenders are rolled or not???? BTW they are rolled. 10.5 +22 wouldn't fit withpout rolling. Show me a 10.5" +13 on a Z? It can't be done.
In regard to tire size which no one has adressed. a 225 on a 9.0 rim won't work, and neither will a 265 on a 10.5. This whole setup sucks and has no business on the Z.

Zexy is right!
LMAO! I have seen 20x11 with a 17 offset on the rear of a Z with stock fenders! Dunlops and Falkens will give you more clearance since their sidewall designs seem to collapse more. I run 19x11 on my car with no problems and my bumper is 2 inches from the ground.
Believe it or not, the rim being made by a different rim company will make a difference since there are different disks that are used to maximize lip and clearance
Here is the pic of the 20's I was talking about
PROOFFFFF!!!!!!!

I have not rolled the fender one bit and it fits when slammed.

I checked out your other pics on this thread you posted https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tires/138338-sf-chal-11-slammed-on-stock-fenders.html .
What you failed to tell us is that you have at least negative 4 degrees of camber !!
It's my opinion that "fitting" means at normal camber settings. 1-2.5 degrees.
If you put on the right size tires on the car we wouldn't be having this conversation. 235/35 on a 9.5 wide rim and 265/30 on a 10.5 wheel is too narrow. The tire is stretched. The aspect ratios and rolling diameters are incorrect as well. The rolling diameter is smaller than stock.
Sooooo my definition of fitting is way different than yours.

i think JETPILOT and everyone else is looking at this issue in two different ways. in regards to JET's responses- i think you are talking about more towards what is more realistic and somewhat practical and correct when it comes to tire aspects and rolling diameters, more like on the books settings, no offense.
everyone else, inlcuding me is more on the make it fit attitude like my fellow drifters from zilvia.net, forget practicality and correct camber and such, make it fit and do whatever to accomplish which includes fender mods, lots and lots of camber, and suspension mods. so i believe everyone has a valid point to an extent. now it all depends if the owner of the rims wants to go through that or stick to whats commonly fitted. rest my case.
