Ok so I'm looking to pick up a set of rims and put them on my car, as someone said in the last thread you've been a member for so long and have no clue! Yes I have no clue I just picked up the z anyways I want to know if these rims are going to affect the stock alignment on my 05 enthusiast and I want to know if they are going to look good (stick out/in to much ) Heres the rim specs on all four rims they are the same front and rear:
size: 18 x 8.5
offset: +40
hub: 73.1
pcd:5h/114.3

thanks guys for your info / thoughts/ opinions for reference they are gold ti5s

 

those are terrible offsets, and the wheel can be wider

Look for something along these lines:

18 x 9
18 x 10
+15 to +25 (depends on if you want a extreme or conservative look)

 

+40 8.5...............how about no! Thats worse then stock. Theyll stick in more then stock, no where near the outer fender.

If youre going to do wheels do them right!

 

Yeah Im going for a nice clean look and stock in the sense of even tire where and no camber kit needed

 

adjustable camber only needed when dropped. I'm pretty sure wheel size wouldn't affect your alignment that much, if at all......

But yeah, those are shitty specs for aftermarket wheels.

 

Yeah I was looking at getting some TI 5 gold 18in rims from a guy and tonight was the only night i could pick em up but after reading and doing a lil research I declined the sale. Even though I saw a pick of the in 35 offset in the Ti 5 thread and they looked great, they were 19s though

 

What's the problem

 

rim width is kinda slim, stock slim..offset is vomit you gotta go below 30. 30 is stock

 

dont do it! Even if you had volks, with an offset like that its gonna destroy the cars appeal

I shall shake a stick in your face if I see you driving around Orlando with +40 offset rims.

 

if you had an 05-07 STi, or a Civic Si, those would be good sizes

For a Z, no way

 

Weak for sure. Look for at least a 9.5" wide wheel all around with a 265/35 tires. The offset should be at least 30mm or lower..

 

funny you say that the guy said he bought them for his civic but was shipped sizes for 350z :/

 

boo boo.
