Default +5 Front -21 Rear

I was over at RB Motoring the other day for a BBQ with some friends and we decided to raid the warehouse for test fits on the Z.

i found a set of WORK MEISTER SP1 3PC in gold, 18x10.5 +5 and 18x12 or 13
(i forget) -21. negative 21 HOLY HELL its like every 240/Z owners wet dream. so began the test fit we first put the -21 in on the rear of course. then proceeded to put the +5 on the front but was not successful due to the wheel hitting an arm (i forget the name). so then we switched the +5 to the rear, from the top it stuck out about a 3rd of an inch to an inch.

unfortunately this was at night time and warehouse had no lights outside, i attempted to take pictures with a flashlight and my phone but that turned out to be crap, plus by this time we were wasted already, and i just slept in the Z.

with a good bit of neg. camber and a appropriate tire size the +5 would work on the rear. A member here (deviljon I think) is running 19x10 +0 and 19x11 +0 with stretched tires and camber. Too bad the -21 wouldnt work, hehe

if i remember correctly i believe drift factory was working on an RB powered 240 ,with WORK MEISTER SP1, either the same offset sizing or even more negative.

damn those wheels were like sex on my redline.
