Although I am not offering real assistance - as far as providing numbers (because I don't know), I own the I-Forged Aeros. Vince at I-forged was very helpful in setting up the correct specs for the wheels for me. I stated something to him when I ordered them based on what others told me & what size tires I was planning to use. I'm sure someone will post some suggested offstes for you. But I know that Vince will offer suggestions if he feels it appropriate. So, just email Vince, tell him your tire plans, & ask him what he thinks. On mine, Everything fits & they look great.

I seem to get favorable comments on my aeros every day. Actually a couple of curious ones - two people have asked whether I have had body work done - they think the car seems "curvier".

vince at iforged can set it up for you but, keep in mind that if you go out too far when ever you put tire shine on it's going to spray all over the side of your car.

When I inquired about mine, they asked what look I wanted - how much lip, how far out, but they wouldn't give me the final offset figures for some reason. I have yet to see a bad iForged setup on a G/Z.

As the iForged dealer for the Nissan market - offset is not the critical dimension. It is pad height. We provide trhe specs of the car to iForged and they determine the offset and pad height to insure fitment, clearance for the brake kit(s) used and still allow the maximum lip. So it is really a combination of a bunch dimensions. The key question we ask the customers when ordering is if they are going to big brake kits now or in the future as the wheels can be configured correctly upfront.

Wheels are running 5-6 weeks right now. So I would order as soon as possible it it is fast approaching the busy season.

If you are doing 3 piece wheels 1/2 sizes are available. In the 2 piece you are looking at 8" in the front and 10" in the rear.

regards
