Moose is running Tanabe GF210's, so I'm guessing around 3/4" to 1" drop. I've seen it in person and it doesn't look slammed, looks perfect imo.

I didnt notice that pinstripe before. Yep, that car is perfect in my opinion too. I might have gone with a larger front tire with some more camber, but it's perfect as is IMO.

I need some help from the Fat Tire experts. I'm about to order some custom CCW C2K wheels and need info to help me decide on the offsets.

I'm ordering them in 18x10 front and 18x11 rear
I will be running KDW2's 275/35-18 front and 295/35-18 rear

Front camber at 2.3, rear at 1.3

I did a lot of research, literally hours and hours. I'm thinking +25 f and +30 r. I'm pretty set on the fronts but am taking suggestions on the rear.

Here's a few pictures I found of a 18x11 +23 with 295/35-18.

The rear flushness of this car is exactly what I'm going for, but it looks to me like there is more than -1.3 camber back there. Hence my proposed +30. Very open to suggestions here and thanks in advance.

One more pic of the wheels I'm ordering.

It looks to me like he'd rub under full compression, and it doesn't look like his fenders are rolled. I like your 11 +30 wheel, but since I think your fenders are rolled tight (but not pulled), you could also likely go +25 or so. We are talking about 5mm, 1/2cm, 2/10", so the placement of the top of the tire is more influenced by the amount of camber versus these 5mm of offset. Remember, of course, you can always push a wheel out with a 3-5mm slip-on spacer, but you can't suck 'em back in. Rolling the fenders gains at least 8mm of "clearance", so that can always be factored in. Can't wait to see those beautiful CCWs on your Z!

Thanks Scott,

Really just trying to get it right. I was thinking about a +25, but the picture of moose's red Z with the 19x11 +25 above scared me off, his car looks good but looks like rub city through dips with his 295 BFG's and camber. +30 is sounding pretty good I think that's what I'll go with.

Thanks for all the love folks. Primex is right. Lowered on gf210s so 1 inch front and 1.2 rear. Rolled fenders, oem spec rear camber and -1.5 front. I did about 3 months of research before I purchased and mounted and it came out perfect. Form = function
