No problem, I took a loooooong time to decide on my setup, I had no clue what offsets meant back then haha. After a lot of reading, and with the help of shanesg and eurodre, I finally ordered.

Post some pics when you get them mounted.

 

i certainly will. wait time is 8-10 wks though ive been told. btw, just noticed you painted the hats on your rotors to match the calipers...looks great

 

Thanks, but they both came anodized to match lol. I waited 3 months for my wheels.

 

^^ I waited almost 5 months. Long freakin wait.

 

personally I say wait another few months before ordering wheels, what happens is at first you want to get the best of both worlds...no rub and fat lips, then eventually you spend enough time looking at more and more aggressive setups and start thinking, hmmmm well a bit more aggressive won't hurt, a little rub here and there, then it eventually progresses to "eff that, i don't care if i have to rub, roll fenders, and run negative camber I want ma ish to look like statusne." but by that time you've already put in the order for more moderate offsets and smaller lips and will proceed to kick yourself for the 3g's spent on vs-xx in offsets that don't satisfy you. I have factory brembos and personally started out in the positive single-digit offsets because I wanted what this gentleman wants, but eventually my moods progressed to a much more negative and aggressive offset choice for my 9.5 and 10.5 r-disk and o-disk setup and I'm so glad I waited it out. spend at least 5-6 months contemplating wheels man, it will be worth it to ya

 

^ Valid points. Definitely take your time in deciding the specs for your wheels. I know what you mean about wanting to go more and more aggressive. It's like lowering your car, you just keep going lower and lower to a point where you never thought you'd go that low haha.

 

This is why they made cup kits.

 

Fab, if youre gonna start detailing your car 1 week before
the Riverside INFINITI meet, your front bumper better look
better than this!

lol im kidding im sure most of that are tiny rock chips.

 

Hahaha yeah most of those are rock chips . And on the way to the meeting point for the cruise to HB, the road was wet, so I literally had mud all over my car. Luckily I had some microfiber clothes and detailing spray.

 

so ive been on the work website doing my research and i figured with the previous setup i would have only .72" difference in lip between the front and rear wheels. im wanting a noticeably bigger lip in the rear than the front and i dont think .72'' is that noticeable. this is how i got the info:

9.5 +17 rdisk shows a 72mm rim depth
10.5 +18 adisk shows a 90mm rim depth

90-72=18mm or 1.8cm... 1.8cm/2.5cm per in= .72''

now then, i was thinking if i change the front wheel from a +17 rdisk to a +24 tdisk which has a 59mm rim depth i would have this:

90-59=31mm or 3.1cm... 3.1cm/2.5cm per in= 1.24''

so now i would have a rear wheel lip 1.24'' wider than the front wheel which is more noticeable.

front lip would be 59mm or 5.9cm or 2.36''
rear lip would be 90mm or 9.0cm or 3.60''

i guess my questions now are....are my figures correct and will a 9.5 +24 tdisk look flush with the fender or will i need spacers for the front. if that would require spacers, then the only other way i see as not needing spacers would be to move down to a 9'' wheel with a +17 tdisk.

or we can scratch changing the front at all and if an odisk will clear brembos in the back, i can run 10.5 +13 odisk. this setup would yield a 1.48'' difference in lip sizes. im thinking the odisk is the route im gonna take. if the rear doesnt clear brembos then ill just run brembos up front and paint the rear oem's to match
thanks for all the help guys. just trying to take my time and research as much as i can so in the end, ill get what i want.

 

bump for a little help

 

i have pretty much the same as Silencer_O but 1/2 inch higher in the front and it doesnt rub in either front or back.

 

To be honest, I don't really know what the difference between T-disk and R-disk is. T-disk didn't exist when I ordered my wheels lol.

Your figures are correct, but I definitely wouldn't go for a smaller lip size up front. The .72" is actually noticeable IMO. +24 will not look flush.

Just stick with R-disk in the front and call Work Wheels to ask if O-disk will clear brembos. The workers there are pretty helpful, I think they might actually clear.

 

yeah i was thinking +24 on front wouldn't look right. guess im going +13 on the rear with odisk.

 

I'm sure the O-Disc will clear brembos in the back. +13 in the rear would look good on your car.

But Fab has told me in the past that my T1S were more BBK friendly then his VS-XX.
