hardy,

the ones pictured are

front: 19x9.5 19mm offset

rear: 19x10.5 17mm offset

your fenders WILL have to be rolled in order to fit this offset!!!!

i will have these wheels this week or next week.

they were ordered 3 months ago.

i do have a set of standard offset for sale if anyone is interested:

19x8.5 25mm offset
19x9.5 29mm offset

Hey John, will both front and rear fenders have to be rolled? I also ordered that setup a couple of months ago.

john350Z

smooth350,

fronts might depending on how low you go.

glad to see another 350z with some front 9.5s & rear 10.5s.

Hey John, do you have any hi res pics of your car? It is absolutely beautiful,

There are two ways of "rolling the fenders". 1) Cutting the inner fender lip, sanding it out to make it flush with the inner lining, and then they put some kind of compound to make it smooth. (I saw it done at D2 in Alhambra CA). Or 2, they use this maching that attaches to your wheel hub, and it applies presure by going back and forth on the arc of the wheel well thus pushing the fender lips in.

I don't think you can roll the front fender, it doestn have the horizontal piece of metal on the front htats on the rear. So if it doesnt fit in the front, you'd need to get hte fender pulled out somehow.

I ordered Gram Light 57F-Pros in that offset about 2 1/2 months ago. They should be here in Sept.

The detailed settings I ordered are:
19x9.5f +19A offset
19x10.5r +17B offset

The difference between A and B is the face of the rim. A is a high face where it will have a bit more curve so that large brake calipers will fit (ex BREMBOS, STOPTECH ect ect). B is a more flushed face for smaller calipers (you rear BREMBOs if you have them)

Hope this helps, and yes you more likely have to roll the fenders if you lowered your car like me

Smooth350

Thanks for the help guys. Now, only if my rims would hurry up and get here! By the way John, what tire size are you going with?

john350Z

hey smooth350,

just go with 245/35 19" fronts and 275/35 19" rear.

9.5 fronts and 10.5 rears are same tire size as 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears.

and smooth350z: don't worry, your rims will get here soon enuff if ya ordered them about 2 months ago.

i ordered mine about 3-4 months ago.

and what about with NISMO G-Attack?

Thanks,

I would think so, as your overall diameter would be the same (if you try to keep it in spec). But then again, it is monday morning, and my brain hasn't really turned on yet.

I gotta get some pics of my GT-C's on here, but i really want new tires, i just cant stand how 'stretched' the 245's look on my 9.5" wheel. I'm gonna pick up some 255's and see if they look better...

john350Z

if you lower the car mike, the rears will have to be rolled.

john!!!

your nutZ... how many wheels are you goign to have that you are never going to put on your car.

uro279

Did you have your rears rolled?

Also, I was told that Volk recommended that 19" TE37's be 8.5-F and 10.5-R? Is this correct? Would this fit without having to roll? It's the width and not height that decides whether you have to roll right?

I want to get 18's in 8.5F and 9.5R so I can fit 245/40-F and 275/70-R. Is this OK? Will this interfere with ABS, VDC/Traction Control, and EBD (electronic brake distribution)?

How do you figure out appropriate offsets?

And how do you determine what sizes require rolling?

Thanx

The curvature of the centers don't change, it's the pad height that varies going from one type of disk to another.

John,
I think someone else might be rockin your wheels if you ordered them 4 months ago bro. My mag mesh should be here soon.
