Aggressive Wheels and Stretched Tires....Welcome
3m didnt go so well, just thought id give it another try with oracal vinyl. car should be done sometime next week. im glad to see more and more Z's doing the damn thing. Z's rule this era!
Thanks for the kind comments guys. Id love to go lower but my splitter is already taking a battering thanks to the roads in Ireland
Most people over here cant believe how low it is already. As for the back being slightly raised I like the nose down stance 
Matty that diffuser of yours is awesome ... What is it?

i know i know, these wheels are cheap/lame
and this isnt a 350z
but, ive been building it up over the last year, the new wheels fit pretty good on it IMO
xxr 526
17x9+5 (20mm added) 225/45
18x10.5+20 245/40
just a teaser pic for now, going lower and hopefully do a z/s13 fotoshoot soon

thus, 19x9.5 +2 is equal to a 19x10.5 +14... right??
I'm pretty much on the same calculation as you in my understanding
But if the inner clearance is to be kept constant as it doesnt hit the suspension parts and adding the 1/2" to the outer position.
Keeping the inner clearance / "back spacing" constant i got -30 offset
If you were to keeping the Lip or outer position constant I got the same as you at -17 / -18 offset (closer to the -18) but that would be adding 1/2" to the inside.
Going by a percentage factoring I got -25mm offset
There might be a E=mc2 rule to factor in that I am just not getting
