I was wondering if I were to buy these wheels/tire set would it fit flush on my 350z? I don't really understand the whole offset thing and if that would affect the way it would look. From what I understand the front wheels are medium offset and back are high positive offset whatever that means. Please help!

The width are fine. Offset are basically if toward the fender or not. The lower the number closer to fender or poking out. Higher the number more sunken look. 20 ish would be a safe number. I would avoid 30's or higher.

 

I finally tracked down some offsets for those sizes:

19x9+32
19x10.5+27

The front size is pretty weak. If you really like those wheels I would buy (4) 19x10.5+27 but there are a lot of variables you didn't specify like your suspension setup, ride height and tire selection. Good luck.

 

I would expect 10.5 +27 to rub inside up front.

My 10.5 +15 RPf1's are close inside.

 

i honestly don't know my suspension setup or ride height all i know is my car is stock if that helps, and the tires were the DELINTE D7 245/35/19, 275/30/19 which come with the wheels as a package

 

275/35 rear tires would be better. If you're not sure of what you want then those would fit fine and not cause issues. Flush look is subjective and varies from person to person. It won't be battle ship sunk compared to stock but it isn't overly aggressive either where you would have to modify the fenders by rolling.

 

I want it to be flush like this, but i wouldn't know what sizes to get for wheels/tires sadly.

Rears will be pretty close, fronts will tuck in a bit more.

 

I would look in the vendor section here and never go to the wheel fire site again.

 

your first step

 

Okay i found some other wheels but would 19x10 (5x114.3/e20/73) fit the front of the car?

 

It would fit but again what's the offset?

 

Newb.

 

+20 offset

 

I figured that since John so eloquently pointed that out...

 

To save you a lot of time and trouble, there is not a wheel that you can buy off the shelf to sit flush. There are a seemingly immeasurable number of different variables that can create a particular look, but change 1 thing and that changes everything. I.E. you can have wheels that LOOK flush at stock height and become sunken when you lower your car. You can have wheels that actually sink in, but the TIRE looks flush to fender. You can have a wheel that will poke at 0 camber but sit snuggly inside the fender at -3 camber |--| vs /--\. You can add spacers..I could go on and on and on, but to put simply, you need to figure out a few things to figure out what will be flush.

What will be flush and what will fit are 2 completely different things.

 

You want around +20 offsets if you are going to get 9.5" and 10.5" widths. +30 or higher will be tucked in (like the stock wheels) and +10 or less will probably be poking out past the fender slightly. Change the width of the wheels and these numbers will be different but 9.5/10.5 is a very popular setup.

I wanted flush and ended up getting 19x9.5 +22 in the front and 19x10.5 +22 in the rear. As for tires, I'm running 245/35 up front and I would consider them slightly stretched. 275/35 out back which looks pretty normal to me. I'll be getting 265/35 285/35 for my next set though.

 

that!!!

look up the for sale threads there you can have a better look on what the wheels look like on the car (since most of the guys here are putting up pics of the wheels on the car).

not trying to confuse you with this, but don't forget the caliper clearance (the clearance between the caliper and the spoke of the wheel)!
if you have Brembos you might want to look into that too.
