Yup, and a lot of use track junkies run ARP extended even if we don't need spacers.

I did the APR studs 1) for track reasons 2) I hated seeing rust on my wheels.

Yes. If you aren't doing track stuff but want longer studs, I have a bunch of new (and some used) NISMO 50mm (or 60?) studs that I just need to get rid of (racing with the ARPs as well).

Just ordered my Forgeline wheels for the G37S sedan.

Forgeline MD3P
Originally Posted by Forgeline
The MD3P is the ultimate in classic mesh 3-piece design. Each MD3P wheel is built with forged 6061-T6 aluminum centers, 6061-T6 spun rim halves, and stainless steel aircraft-grade ARP fasteners. It features a powder coated or chrome finish with a polished, powder coated, or chromed lip. The MD3P is available in sizes ranging from 18x7.5 to 20x16. And since each wheel is built to order, Forgeline can offer special features like custom offsets and a choice of center finishes.
Gunmetal Center, Polished Outer Rim/Lip & Gloss Black Inner Rim: 19x9.5 +40 & 19x10.5 +45

Going to run a 255/40 & 284/35 BFG Sport comp-2.

For reference OEM set-up is; 18x7.5 +45 225/50 & 18x8.5 +50 245/45

Have to give BIG THANKS to Tony @ Deviate Motoring for giving me a lot of good information on Forgeline Wheels. We were going back and forth with HREs or Forgelines.

I've spent countless hours viewing different set-ups and playing with the wheel/tire calculator. I think this will be perfect for the everyday driver without any concerns.

So this is what I'm going to order for my first set of wheels ony Z.This will be my track setup, any input will be appreciated. My fenders will be pulled and rolled.

Fronts: 18x10 +25 285/35/18
Rears: 18x11 +30 305/35/18

I was thinking of going a higher offset and use spacers just in case but form what I've seen on here this should work.
