which doesn't detract from the previous guy's statement. You definitely need fender flares or a wide body kit if you want those wheels.

No you dont.

CE28 19x9.5 +7 19x10.5 +7. Wider diameter wheel, wider width, lower offset. Much more aggressive than the 18x11 +18 setup, no fender flares or widebody, looks fine to me.

really? They wheels in this picture are not the 18x11's that were in your original post. I'm not trying to disparage them, because I love them. It's just how they appeared.

The pictures from my first post was 18x11 +18. The picture above is 19x9.5 +7 and 19x10.5 +7. What my point is that you were saying you have to run a widebody or fender flare to accomodate the wheel but the truth is, you dont have to. My comparison in the pic above proves it by showing a much more aggressive wheel setup with stock fenders. No insult taken.

This is with a roll still correct? What are your camber settings? Isn't a 275/35/18 a little short in the rear for a Z, like you should be running 275/40/18?

My camber should be about -1.4 to -1.5. If you are talking about a 18x11 +25 needing fender rolling, depends on what tire size you go with but Id roll the fenders anyways just to be safe. The 275/35 was definitely short on my car and my car is pretty slammed. A 275/40 would work but the point of this wheel is to go with a 305 at a minimum.

So you are saying a 18x11 +18 with a 305 is going to clear the stock fenders with a roll? I just don't see how when your already stretched tires barely clear now.

How could that be? Lifted trucks have tires that stick out from the side over 4 inches sometimes.

If it really is illegal its like the same thing with police in cali that will bust you for aftermarket exhaust that is "too loud", yet somehow they care about the Harley Davidson motorcycles you can hear from a mile away
