Finally an offset I'm Happy with (Work it)
 
I had the typical work emotion set up with 18x9.5 +20 rear wheels and 18x8.5 +30 front wheels. I've never really been happy with the offset. My front wheels use to look like a black hole was sucking then into the center of my car.:o
So I ordered 2 18x9.5 +12 offset, dismounted the tires and put my old rear wheels on the front and these new +12 offset on the rear. I have no clearance issued (being that I rolled my rear fenders) and the stance is much much improved. Now I have that concave look in the front that I was always missing. !:icon38:
the ol, 8.5 +30s notice all the way at the bottom you can see alittle bit of

the tire...... boooooooo

Why didn't you buy spacers??

konspec May 20, 2006 11:25 AM

two reasons
one: i don't trust the size of spacer I would need for the track
two: the wider the wheel and lower the offset the more concave the work emotions get.
I like the curves...alooot

Finally the pics!!!! IT LOOKS AWESOME!!!

I found my setup : )

wtf no turbo May 30, 2006 04:38 PM

First bronze i really like. Im thinking of some Works myself.

MR RIZK May 30, 2006 04:51 PM

looks awesome..

But I think the rears cannot be +12 as +12 is a GTR offset and I have seen GTR TE37's (9.5) with a +12 offset on a Z and they do not fit. They stick out like 1/2"

Motormouth Jun 2, 2006 07:32 AM

wow, so the pics are photochopped then? lol.

question: do you think you could fit more tire on it or will you have rubbing issues?

Z33_SPL Jun 3, 2006 12:13 PM

looks good man. but i give you a month or two before you're unhappy again and get the 18x9.5 +12 for the fronts and some spacers for the rear...lol. :icon18:
