Tire and Wheel FAQ
Lets start a thorough FAQ page on Tire and Wheels. Everything should be included such as rim name, size, width and offset. Tire info should include width, profile and size. Additional info should be included such as any rubbing, fender rolling or cutting and if the car is dropped then how much. Lets get this going guys and try and make it as informative as possible.
I know most of you understand but for those that don't here is an example:
rim front 19x8.5 offset 25
rear 19x9.5 offset 20
tire front 245/35/19
rear 275/35/19
no drop, no rubbing.
Most people do there homework but it prob a good idea to add the tire make too.

your screenname is "twentyinrims" but you ahve 19"s. What's up with that?
So what tires do you have? It took me a while to realize in terms of cost that 17 < 18 < 19". I think it's less mainstream the dimensions, so they make less from the mold, so they have to charge more? Am I correct in this assumption?

twentyinrims,
if you haven't already emailed one of the moderators do so with your inquiry. i had to research the hell out of rims, offsets and whether or not they would even work on my Z. everybody has suggestions and answers from what they read, not always from experience. this forum devoted to just wheels and tires should be in an appropriate category on this forum and should be locked to (input only) and no responses or replies. a info sheet of what works on the 350z, like you explained it. it would be nice to have a picture of the owners Z with new rims along with the data.
this would be the best rim forum yet!!!!!!!!!
