Default Help With Suspension And Wheel Fitment

2008 350Z

I recently purchased a set of NEW Varrstoen Volk TE37 replicas.

Specs:
-19x9.5 +0 FRONT
-19x11 +0 REAR

I removed the tires from my old wheels. The specs of my old wheels where:
-19x9.5 +20
-19x11 +18

The specs of the tires removed from old wheels and mounted on new wheels:
245/40/19
275/40/19

The suspension I am using: TEIN Flex Coilovers no EDFC controller.

I do not have aftermarket camber arms.

------------

My car had to be raised because of the offset difference between the wheels. These tires where to beefy for the new ones. The car no longer sits nice. It is at or above stock ride height.

With the specs of these new wheels, and the suspension I currently have on the car, which tire size will allow me to lower my car a decent amount?

A few I had in mind...
245/30/19 FRONT
275/30/19 REAR
-------------
235/35/19 FRONT
265/35/19 REAR
-------------
245/35/19 FRONT
275/35/19 REAR

All help appreciated.

Neither. First set will be rubber bands. Second set are stupidly stretched.

255/35-19
285/35-19

I left out the third set I had in mind for the original post, which were just under those specs. I just edited the post.

245/35/19
275/35/19

But even with a size bigger (255 and 285), do you believe I will have room to lower it?

All depends how much you want to lower it and how much camber you're willing to deal with. With enough camber you can make almost anything clear. You won't like how the car handles, however.

Where did you get them from?

See post #1794 or look through this thread or the hundreds of thousands of pics of 350zs with +12 and +22 that's been posted since 2002.
