Just has bought new R20 wheels.
(same front and rear)
Rial Porto (made in Germany)
- 20 x 9.0
- 5 x 114,3
- Hub 70.1 mm (They gave me plastic "hub centering rings (looks like plastic ****)" huh)
- Offset 38
Front tires should be 235/30/R20 (not sure about 245/30/R20...?) and rear 275/30/R20 (not sure about 285/30/R20??)...
So, i need "wheel spacers"? Or everything should be ok without it?
p.s. its ok if hub centering rings are PLASTIC??
p.s.2. 04 350Z Track (with Brembo) ... Wheels do not touch brembo.

As i see using http://www.rims-n-tires.com/rt_specs.jsp wheel/tire calculator, BackSpace will be 165mm ... (with stock 350Z Track 18/19" v.2 wheels and tires BackSpace is 157mm)

Well. It will be ok if I will use for first time 5mm spacers for each wheel?
So offset will be 38 - 5 = 33mm @ 20" x 9.0 front and rear...
Everything should be ok (i talking about functional part) with wheels/car?

This will be my first time ever seeing a square 20" setup on a Z, 9" wheels at that, this should be interesting. ![](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/icon17.gif)
Edit: why are you thinking of getting different size tires on the same size wheel? That's kind of silly IMO with wheels of the same width. Get the same size all around. Just do it.

Well, there was discount 60% (perfect price!)... And as I have already told, it is very hard to find 20 "114.3 in my area.
Hmmm, if i will go with 25mm both or 30mm and 25mm... I will be able to use my stock wheels (18"x8 +30 and 18"x8.5 +33 ... it's Track v.1) to (with spacers)? Using stock wheels for winter...
Any-way, thanks for advice
