So I am going with the 9.5/10.5 22+ offset with 245/35/19 275/3519 nexen n7000 tires for my Z. After long research looks like this will be my best bet since im rolling on stock suspention for now. Just ordered from Concept Z Performance with blue lugs and black stems. Im guessing they will come with the center caps but not sure. Concept Z Performance has nothing but great reviews and carry alot of z oem and aftermarket stuff. Talk to Ray as he knows his sh==t when it comes to cars and can really give u some good advice. Just hope it looks decent and not out of place, if not i will be forced to drop it.

Just go with +22 offset. If you decide to lower, you will be fine.
Post your specs, maybe you can help phased.

Hey all,
After reading most of the posts in this thread and a few other threads I have a good idea of what I want but I thought I would post what I am thinking so I can get some feedback and make sure I'm not forgetting something. I want as wide as I can go in the rear, I know I will need to roll the rear fenders, if I need to pull I can do that too, but I would rather not pull uf I can help it. I have an 03 z, 6 speed touring, 18" stock wheels (previous owner chromed them and on my black z I don't like the look), non-brembo (I will eventually get big brakes), Tokico coilovers, lowered an inch as it sits now.
Tokico coilovers - I don't know much about them, they were on the z when I bought it. From my measuring it appears that it is lowered one inch. I would like to get it lower but I don't think I can lower it with these coilovers without getting shorter springs, is that right? What would I need to do to get it lower another inch or two?
Wheel size - I am thinking front 19x9.5 +12 , rear 19x11 +15. I would need a spacer for the rear to get to +15 right? I saw some setups in this thread that I liked with those specs. I don't want a lot of stretch and I want it really wide in the rear... there are some sick jokes in there somewhere...![](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/icon38.gif)
Tire size - Front 265/35, Rear 305/35. I don't want a lot of stretch. I have read about the 3% rule to keep VDC and ABS happy and I have seen posts that say the increase in tire size shouldn't be more than a difference of 3% of the stock OD size and the new tire OD size and posts that say the increase in size shouldn't be more that a 3% diff between front and rear OD sizes. If its the first, the fronts 265 (26.3 in OD) and the stock 225 (25.97 in OD) are a diff of 1.3% and the rears 305 (27.4 in OD) and the stock 245 (26.68 in OD) are a diff of 2.6% so that would work. If its the later, the % diff between the front 265 (26.3 in OD) and the rear 305 (27.4 in OD) is 4% so that wont work... which one is it?
Varrstoen ES222 or Sportline TE.6 - I don't have the cash for new Volk TE37s, so as far as I can tell these are the best options? They are close to the same price as far as I know, anyone have any input on which way to go?
Sorry for the huge post, after reading through this thread I got a bunch of stuff rolling through my head and wanted to get it down for peoples input and opinions... Thx!

Question if I get 245/40/18 front and 275/40/18 rear tires for 18x9.5 front and 18x10.5 rear with a +22 offset. Will I have to go to a shop for them to put them tires on the rims since it's a small stretch?

got a little issue was hoping someone on here could help.
traded for these wheels and they came with tires.
varrstoen 1.1.2
19x9.5 +22 235/35/19
19x11 +25 275/30/19
had some tire issues on the front tires and had to take whatever the tire shop had in stock.
so i had to put on 255/35/19 up front.. i really like how flush they are with wheel. im trying to get away from the stretched tires that were on their previously.
so my question is what size tire do you recommend replacing for the rear. i dont want any stretch but dont want a massive side wall..
been looking at 285/35/19 or 305/30/19
i would like the fattest tire without that bulge look. im only worried that the 305/30's will look too skinny.
extra info: stock ride height for now. I will be getting coilovers in the next couple months. i plan lower the car to have just a little bit of gap over the tires. and rolling fenders is ok ive done it before and plan to do it to this car.
any help would be much appreciated thanks!
