![Question](https://my350z.com/forum/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hi guys! I bought my Z used from a friend and already had wheels. How do I determine the wheel offsets? The reason I ask is because I'm lowering my Z pretty soon with and getting new shocks as well. Once lowered I'd like to get my wheels to stick out just a bit so I'd need to know the wheel offsets so I can buy the correct spacers. The current tire set up is:
225/40R18 FRONT
245/45ZR18 REAR
225/40R18 FRONT
245/45ZR18 REAR

Very hard to give you what you need without the info. There might be a sticker with the specs of the wheels inside the wheel barrels. If not it might be stamped on the spokes of the wheels. If not................take a measurement after you drop it from the outmost part of the wheel to the fender line and get a spacer that fills the gap.
OTHERWISE post pics =)
PS. it looks like you are running stock wheels if im not mistaken. If thats the case people with 25mm came out pretty flush. GL

With that tire combo, ABS should hate you and think the rears are sliding.

The rear tires are 40.5 mm taller than the front. That is a drastic difference. You might consider alternative tire sizes in the near future.
