Wheel size and offset help
Thinking about picking up a set of Falken Koblenz for my Z. I want a super deep dish on the back and a moderate dish on the front. I never really understood how the offset works.
Can anyone tell me which set up would get me the look I'm going for? Here are the available sizes:
-19 x 10.5" 30mm offset
-19 x 10.5" 10mm offset
-19 x 9.5" 35mm offset
-19 x 8.5" 35mm offset
-19 x 8.5" 25mm offset

I think the choices Brick-Z recommended are in fact ideal. Some members have less offset in the back to push the wheels out further. 30mm, IMO, is just about perfect. In fact that's what Nismo uses for it's 9.5" rear wheel. They also use 25mm for their 8.5" front wheel. I have an 18" set, and think they are just about perfect.

You might be able to get the 19x10.5 +10s to fit, but you will need some fender work and negative camber (depending on how low your car is)! If that sounds like too much effort, I would just get the +30s and maybe run a 10mm spacer, or choose a wheel with a more aggressive offset.
Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp
