19 x 10.5" rim, 30mm offset, with 255/35 R19 tires
Would this size fit the front of my Z?
Its a 2003, without brembos, stock suspension- no drop.

can I ask why you want to run that in front?

I ran a 19x11 +18 and it was like 2mm away from the upper control arm.. So i dont think it would clear.you need something real close to 0 offset to fit that wide of a wheel upfront. et0-et15 would be best fit

would a spacer push it far enough from the control arm? with enough room before the fender?

a 10or 15 mm would be perfect. keep in mind some guys run the te37 10.5 +22 all around with no issues.

Depending on the spacer. A 25mm with studs will get you far enough out, I would think. That'd put you at +5mm, which would get your fitment pretty close to this.

Here's the spacers you'll need for that look:

You could probably do as low as a 15mm spacer. Here's a link for a few different spacers. The 350Z needs a 5x114.3 spacer with M12x1.25 studs.

No, you'll need at least 10, if not 15mm, spacer.

See bold

Yes, try 10 and 15. I run a bunch of 10.5" front wheels, but they are with big tires (285-295)

Agreed, also +15. My new set of 10.5 +27s needed at least 10mm of spacer, and I ended up running 12mm of spacers.

did they not fit because of the bigger tires? They wouldnt fit even with a stretched tire? 255/35 R19. You're the first person whos given me a definitive "no."

scotts300

Well, the tire did hit, but I'm rather sure the wheel would have hit without a tire. What I can do, however, is place one of my wheels on the hub to see if it will hit. I still have two that don't have tires on them. I might be able to do that tonight. Like I said, they are +27, so we're only talking about 3mm. I also have a pair of 10.5 +43s that I can put 13mm of spacers on to see how close it is. Mine are all 18s, and given the angle of the angle of the control arm (curves in at the top), your taller 255/35/19 set (by 1") will net less clearance than any of my 18x10.5" set-ups. I guess that means that I can confirm if your proposed set WON'T fit, but I won't be able to confirm that it WILL fit, as I don't have any 19x10.5s any more (finally sold them all).

nope it wont fit!!! i tried 19x10 +30 running 265/35/19 and rubbed terribly!!! ur going to need 15mm spacers prolly

If it helps, I have 19x10+22 255/35/19 with Brembos and no problems. I think a 10.5+30 is around 15mm closer to the strut but I don't have a calculator so don't quote me on that.

That's right. I forgot about the NISMO 19x10 +30 test fitments. His set-up, although with a 10mm smaller tire, also has 1/2" more width, so his inner portion is almost exactly the same as your inner clearance.

Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

Fusk that calculator.... I hate that thing.. I'd rather just bust out a measuring tape.

1LightBrick

iTrader: (7)

Nah, the calculator is helpful. its simple math/ converting inch to mm anyway. The calculator says i'll have 38mm less inner/outer clearance (7.5 et30 ~10.5 et30) but it doesnt take into account rim diameter. i havent gotten in there yet but does it seem like i'd have 38mm to spare? tire will be stretched (255/35/19) so hopefully that will compensate, at least a bit, for the curve of the control arm.

@NSMOWND- would you happen to have a pic of what that 19x10 et30 looked like on the car?

NZMOWND

iTrader: (3)

not a good one...its from the side so u cant really tell..it does look ok but im running a 20mm spacer up front now and with no camber it pokes just a little

1LightBrick

iTrader: (7)

I'm cool with poke. Are you on stock suspension? Do you have brembos? I think the brembos require different offsets and sizes, I could just be talking out my a$$ though lol. I have a completely stock suspension, except for EBC rotors, which are stock size and stock size calipers.

NZMOWND

iTrader: (3)

mine is a Nismo but yes stock suspension and brembos...

1LightBrick

iTrader: (7)

Arent the NISMOs a bit lower? And do our brake differences afford me some extra space? (I'm an idiot, should have deduced you had a NISMO by your username. I havent had my coffee yet today) I have an enthusiast which means base with bright headlights essentially... Sorry for all the questions, I'm just fishing for what I want to hear lol

NZMOWND

iTrader: (3)

haha its fine! what do u want to hear exactly?!?! no brembos will give u clearance over the calipers but not the assembly on the inside lol ur def going to need about a 10mm spacer which is an easy fix! btw yes Nismo's are a bit lower
