Default 18" JDM Volk Rays TE-37's won't fit?

I have a line on some used 18" JDM Volk Rays TE-37's but after reading here it looks like the offset is wrong? Is that right, only 19" Volks will fit?

I read in the forum that the offset on the Volk 18s don't work on the Z. I know, I'm probably wrong here but I wanted to verify it. Will these wheels work?

Who said they wont "work"

It depends on widths and offsets.

yep I have 18x9.5 +22 in the front and 18x10.5 +22 in the rear with 265/35 front and 295/35 rear tires and fitment is great when you roll the rear fenders slightly. And as type7 said, 18x9.5 +12 will work in the rear as well.

Uh oh, he's selling you the forged ones? I am gonna have to double check and see if those will work on the Z.

Ok whew, your fine!!! All in all those wheels should be no problem whatsoever. But if you can, get those offsets posted.

If you're referring to my thread, it's the TIME ATTACK 18's that won't fit our cars with Volk's offsets...
