If your stock heighht and you run +0 offset you will be mexi flush to the max.
When you do lower your car get coils 235/255 is the best way to go with your fenders rolled. I have te37 are +12 with a 10mm spacer all around so it would bring my wheels to a +2. I run 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 and my wheels would rub hard over dips. My height is a little bit under 25inch measured from ground up to front fender.

My setup isn't +0 offset but close +12.
I'm dropped on Z s-techs & Tokico HPs with the rear spring mount mod.
So I'm dropped about F-1.2" R-1.3"
Wheels are 9.5/10.5 with +12 offset.
I only bothered with a rear camber kit and ended up well within oem spec after alignment.
The rear looks a little too fat cause they're 285s, I'll be switching those out for 275s eventually.
This will even out the look a lot more betwen the front and rear.

They are now.
I bought them used with a lot of surface blemishes and the finish was dull.
But after using some zymol cleaner polish on them they shine like mad now.
Blemish free too.

FYI, if u do go with these tire sizes on 9.5/10.5 rims the tires are going to be really stretched.
It will look good with the proper drop but the ride comfort will be seriously diminished.
If at all possible find a G u can ride in with this tire setup.
It'll atleast give u a good idea of the ride quality before u drop all that cash on tires.

This is the type of fitment I want, sorry to sounds like a nub but why did you use lowering springs for a z instead of a g?

+12 Is a better choice for u cuz its gonna be flush with the fender n at stock height u won't need to roll ur fenders unless ur lowering it anytime soon. I'm getting the same wheels as u but +12s I was thinking +0 but I was advised by navith from my350z that +12 with 245/30 275/30 is the best setup for our Gs
z springs drop you .5" more then g springs

Meaning the G s-techs allow for too much travel in the spring which can cause scraping & bottoming out.
The Z s-techs are a firmer ride, but u will not bottom out or scrape as much.
Esp when u match them up with Tokico hp or D-spec shocks.

hey guys, i am currently dropped on z eibach pro-kit and will be buying new wheels soon. i am thinking of getting 19x9.5f + 22 19x11r +25. will i need to roll my fender? sorry to ask a nub question. thanks!
and i agree like i have many times on the question of offset with the varrstoen wheels..+0 a big no no on stock height! even on a mild drop still big no no! if you want to go semi aggressive you have to be at a semi aggressive drop..im dropped on MDU coilovers that run $520 new shipped from ebay seller "racingfirst" in china or topspeed in TX sells them for a bit more too..they are great and have great adjustment..im only on the +12 with 245/35 front 275/30 rear and i can easily go to about -5 with my fat tires but im dropped more than OP said he wanted because of his driveway..if you want a mild drop..stay +12
once my tires wear out ill be going with 235 front 255 rear or smaller and pushing wheels out to the negatives..picture doesnt help much but just showing what height im at..irishsig already took care of the rear view width shots at his height

Well the way they come in the mail are in oem style where the front shock/spring are 1 part and the rears come with spring off the shock..and most people besides a few converted them into true style rear where it looks like the fronts cause they ride a lot better..the rear in oem style wasn't very comfortable for my passengers but for me alone I didn't mind it..was was real rough and took bumps hard but now in true form they are amazing! The fronts have always been comfortable..but I've had mine installed for a month or a bit more and they held up great and I've taken hard hits..and even 2 hour road trips with them..they are quality parts....I've checke don them many times and no damage or anything..I have confidence in them they are great for the price..rides about like stock..your never gonna get that ride with coilovers being low or you'll cause some damage to your car if its too soft but its my daily driver with 2 other passengers and we get around great with no issues and I'm tucking tire.
I installed them all alone on a Saturday and it went perfect..no issues..fit just like oem..no gaps or movement..nice and snug.
