+15 or +22? Flush-ish Fitment
Trying to get fitment along the lines of these two cars, specifically the black one. The red has a little too much camber in the back but is still pretty similar. Do you think it would be better to just get +22 and use spacers if need be, or do you think +12 would be enough to get that "tucked & flush" sort of look that the black car has? Of course I would want to avoid spacers if possible. 19x9.5 in front and 19x10.5 in back, only offsets available are +12 and +22. Thanks for the help.

No pics on this computer away from home but you can find a couple of examples here:
9.5/10.5 +22 (both) example here: https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2009-n...l#post10881561
And +25F/+12R in a post just above the one above or by clicking here: https://my350z.com/forum/2003-2009-n...l#post10865508

I'd be fine with a minor stretch, but the car is my daily so I can't go too crazy with it. Currently on stock suspension right now too.

Needs spacers? I dunno... personally think it'd be a disaster to put spacers on these +22s...
Or maybe I'm not at the definition of "flush"? Hmmm, where's the bathroom at? FTR, I hate the term "flush".... I prefer "tire contact patches maximized to the available track width without negative effect to the scrub radius."
But that's just my preference.

That's sticking out wayy past fender. +22 would have been perfect by itself, but why get 10.5" wide wheels if you're not going to get a tire that fits properly. Seem's like you're adding weight for nothing. Should have gotten 8" wide for those tire sizes

Nice compare. Only thing that would fluster me is the change in steering response. Notice much diff on curvy roads/track between the two camber "settings"? What is the front at when dropped like that?

Ahhhhh, yeah, forgot that your car is on air.... thought they were before/after suspension mods pics. (And in a way it is. ) But again, great perspective on this.

The +12s will push the wheels out 10mm further than the +22. The amount they will stick out is also dependent on the wheel width.

Gee, when I wrote that, never thought it'd come in handy to anyone....
