Why 50mm spacers? Balla on a budget?

What wheels? Size, offset?

And why such narrow tires? Front stock size fine, but rears?

It came with these tires and the 50mm will get me to flush with the body

Hello. I’m running stock suspension on a 06 I just bought. Will this setup rub?


Front 18x9 25mm
255/40ZR18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport

Rear 18x10.5 20mm
275/40ZR18 Michelin Pilot Super Sport

Thanks

OK, got it. Shouldn't rub with a tire that narrow. But you might want to run your combination through the wheel tire calculator: https://my350z.com/forum/tire_rim_calculator.php

I use 20mm spacers for my high offset Z34 front wheels but don't trust something as big as 50mm but so long as you follow proper torque sequencing and check them regularly, most likely be OK.

Fronts OK, rears MIGHT have interference (but I doubt it). Just take it easy once they're on and listen carefully for rubbing over bumps. I have +14, +22s and +23s (rears), but I couldn't tell you for sure if they'd rub as my guards are rolled (because my 9.5 +15s DID rub on select bumps.)

Nismo 57cr clubsport spec wheels 18 x 10.5 +22
285/35-18 square set up
Will be running ast 5200 coilovers and whatever other suspension to get it to work. I am trying to stay in the STU class for autocross and max out the tire. I am assuming i will need to run higher camber and maybe a spacer in the back?

you will rub front and more than likely rear, roll the rear fenders, camber in the front

not sure if acidjake still works on cars, but he is in carrollton as well

Is there a better offset for both that would work?

it not going to be the offset, it will be the width and tire sizes. someone with more knowledge, aka micvelo, will chime in at some point

i was running 18x9.5 +15 rear, and +23 front, i had to roll rears and had to take the center fender liner screw out

255-/40 and 275/40 tire combo

hmm. maybe i need to go with the rpf1s 18*10's (+23 or +12?) with the 285's. I don't mind rolling the fenders, just can't stretch them.

Couldn't tell you about running a squared 285 setup for AX. Wait for terrasmak or others. I know he runs 275/35-18 on 10.5s squared but not sure on 285s up front.

Rear is fine , may rub the fender under full compression depending on your camber spec

front is ok, but you will need an adjustable arm for camber to clear the fender.

Tire size is nice, but look at the 275/35-18 specs for the tire prior to buying. The 275 in my brands was wider and lighter than the 285, doesn't make since but .....

Would +12 offset be better than the +22 or would that cause it to have less room?

This. ^^^

+12 offset moves your rotating assembly 10mm closer to the guard lip. And with the widths you're talking about..... you need to go inboard more.
