how can you guys fit 305's on the rear? im already rubbing with 285r 255f +15r +17 offsets

 

negative camber..roll/pull fenders..smaller sidewall series tire..run an 18 inch wheel or smaller would help too if your on springs...there's a lot you can do

 

i have coils, my sidewall are 35 series and my camber is oem spec with spc camber arms

 

Dang I haven't been here in a while...lol

But throw some camber in there and you could go wider,
What's the specs on the wheels???

 

19x9.5f +17 19x10.5r +15

 

your fenders rolled??

 

yup^^

 

More camber/higher offset/pulling your fenders will help you fit 305s...

 

A little more camber and ur good, u can pull it off with that offset, u might need to pull a little

 

yo whiteonwhite, i saw you driving when i went to miami a week ago haha. small world.

 

Wheel width matters as much as offset.

or more offset

^^^ Correct ^^^.

305s actually fit quite easily - even without a roll. I just grabbed a set of 315s for a friend's supercharged car. I know they will easily fit in the rear, and honestly, I think I can fit those in the front and maybe go to a 335 in the rear with a fender roll. I will start some test fitting in the spring.

 

super wheel/tire noob here...

i have a Nismo 350 with stock suspension wheel specs are 18x9 +30 front and 19x10 +30 rear...i want to run 255/40 up front and 285/35 in the rear with 25 or 20mm spacers all around or 25 rear and 20 front...any issues??

 

Front tire height is 26.0", rear is 26.9" - that I like. I suggest you get a set of 20mm spacers, and try them out on the front and the rear. If they aren't aggressive enough for you in one of those two locations, order your next pair accordingly. I would, however, look in the NISMO thread to see what people have done, as I'm sure all sizes have been attempted.

 

^^^ this is what i like and the reason i like forums...i asked a somewhat noob question yet got a VERY informative answer!! you sir are my friend! lol

 

so i just finished lowering my Z on the eibach sportlines.

the car is alot lower than i anticipated and the more i look at it....the more i need to get some wheels!

i've played around with doing a square setup and possibly 275/35 all around but then i've heard that on the highway @ highway speeds...it seems like the car feels a bit "unstable" or "squirmy" and always having to correct the car.

i believe terrasmak came in here and also said that 275/35 front and 275/40 is the ideal set up and i'm willing to play with that idea if i stay with same size rim all the way around.

if i went with a 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear (rpf or nt03) what would be the correct size to run and maintain minimal wheel gap? right now i barely have 1 finger gap all the way around and would like to keep it that way with the new setup.

245/40 front
275/40 rear

??

any help will be greatly appreciated! thanks in advance.

No clue about any of your questions but i can tell you this, i have spent many hours trying to decide how i want to drop my Z and from what i have read your springs in particular will settle a good bit. So take that into account when you finalize your setup! If i am wrong please correct me as i am no expert lol

 

Glad I could help!

Which offset 9.5/10.5? You could go 245-255/40 with 275/40, or 275/35 with 275/40 as Terra explained. If you go square, I'd get the same size wheel all around, although not necessary. What size tires do you have now? If you barely have a gap now and like it that way, then you should get tires that have the same diameter. If you want more or less gap, the tires can be adjusted accordingly to suit your tastes (approximately, since a 275/35 from one brand is not the same size as a 275/35 from another brand, but we can get close).

 

The offsets for the 9.5/10.5 would vary between the two different model rims. i think the nt03's are +27 and +30 and the rpf1's are +15 for the 10.5's not sure on the 9.5's.

the tire sizes i have not are the stock bridgestones 225/45/18 front and 245/45/18 rears that came on my 03 touring.

i came across barefootracers set up and i believe hes on a 18x10.5 all around on 265/35. +15 up front and -5 in the rear




I'm hoping to acheive this look but i think he's on coilovers and im not sure if my sportline drop would be similar.

this **** is frustrating at times! thanks for the responses though!

 

Man my car is sooooo dirty.....hasn't been washed in about 6 months.....covered in dust FTL...



Being able to change tires at home instead of on site early before an event....FTW!!

 

You drive there on the A6s? How far?
