Default Bronze TE37 18" +12F/+15 rear: ballers welcome



I need to adjust my front for more camber, but beyond that I couldn't be happier. Thanks Andy!

+15damn, son. im rocking same fitment except +15 all around right now. i had not idea that 3mm would make that much of a difference up in the front.

nice and aggressive, just the way our Zs are suppose to be.

what tire size and camber are you running if you dont mind me asking.

245/35 up front, 275/35 rear, Toyo T1-R's.

The camber is within stock specs right now (rear fenders are rolled). I'm going to add a couple degrees up front with my A-arms.

Flush is good, but sticking out even more just for the sake of running amazingly low offsets that stick out of fenders and having stretched tires just to make them "fit" is silly. Id like to see what happens to the fenders when you take a sharp corner fast or hit a bump at speed...

Just my opinion.

Awesome! I have the exact same wheels on my S13, except I have Falken Azenis in 275 F/315 R.

Also, are you going to lower the car?

very good lookin car man, nice color combo and TE's are classic, they'll look good on damn near anything. Just be aware that when you add 2 more degrees of negative camber up front, it will sink that wheel. Just go minor with the camber and it'll keep it lookin flush. You may even want to space the rear as my rpf1's (18x10.5 +15) look SOO much better with a 15mm spacer back there. And I run apprx. -3.o of rear camber.

Ha, I'm content with the rear for now. On the fronts I can easily play with the camber as I have the SPC A-arm.

Maybe too much offset for me. But it does look aggressive!

One of the top setups for sure; proper 18" setup, great offsets for street wheels, lightweight...stunning!

I do think I would have gone +15 front (a tad too much "poke" for my taste).
