Default What offset will fit on a G35C for 20s

I want to get some 20s for my girl's G35C. It is an 05. What is the max offset without any rubbing or fender rolling. ZI tried the G35 forum but no one has replied. If anybody knows someone w/ 20s on a G35C let me know. Thanks!!

Ill assume you want to run a 245/275 width, so to make sure you dont have to roll Id look for an offset in the high +20's through +30 offset. Should have no worries at all with that even lowered.

Ok great. Will these work 20x8.5 +35 20x10 +38 ? Is this deep dish? I am not aware of how the offsets work.

Fronts are +35 and the rears are +38 So I guess that is no good? Is it the higher the number the farther they stick out?

No, higher positive number = more tucked in. In those widths, +20 to 25 would be a good fit.

Question Will this setup work on my Z Roadster?

I am considering similar rim width, but in 18":

Front: 18 x 9.5 +28 offset with 245/40/18
Rear: 18 x 10.5 +30 offset with 275/40/18

I do not plan on lowering the car in the near future. I do want to be sure that these offsets will not require any spacers, and will not interfere with brakes (even if I upgrade to larger brakes in the future). I also want this setup to look good (do not want the rims to be pushed in too far or stick out beyond the fenders.

-Will the above setup work well and look good on my Z Roadster?
-What is the approximate lip size that I will get (front and rear) with the above setup?
-Does anybody have pictures of a similar setup on their Z?

Thanks.

If you stagger the width, then try to keep the offset fairly close. A 8.5" +25 will be more tucked than a 10" +25, so it will already be a more aggressive fit in the rear.

mg350ZR - that should work fine. Lip size will depend on which style of wheel you go with.
