Thanks a million guys.
please dont. lowest offset you should go without rolling fenders, and that high of a drop should be in the mid 20s.

make a separate thread. has nothing to do with tire and wheel fitment itself, and you'll get tons more responses. only a few people actually frequent this thread for help.

After doing some research this guy used 3mm spacers to clear up front

OK. So i wanna try and put some 20x10 +35 SC-5ives up front. Thoughts? Probably run a 255/30 tire. I don't want to run a lot of negative camber, would like to stay "within spec." The only issue i foresee is INNER clearance. Oh, and I have brembos.

If anyone has any thoughts, info, or links to people that have done something similar I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Hey Wheel Gurus,

I need some help deciding on what size spacers I should get to help me get a more aggressive look. Here's my current set up.

-Tein Flex Coilovers. They are currently set so that there is no gap between wheel & fender. I don't plan on going any lower (DD car)

-Ichiba Rear Camber Kit & Toe Bolt (inb4 "Ichiba sucks - shoulda got SPCs instead..."). The rear camber/toe is within spec. Front is +2 degrees.

-SSR MS1 Wheels in Super Black Chrome
FRONT: 19x9 +31
REAR: 19x10 +24

Basically the fronts look way too tucked inward. The rears are OK...but they could probably pop alot more with a modest spacer... I know that most guys on here with aftermarket wheels run 19x9.5 and 19x10.5 with an offset around +15. Because my wheels are half an inch smaller in width; I'm confused as to what offset I should be aiming for. Any help is appreciated.

9.5 +15 = 9 +9. you need atleast a 20 mm spacer. I'd get a 25mm for the front.

if you wanna do the rears too. 10.5 +15 = 10 +9. get a 15mm for that.

No need for such a small profile, just run a 255/35. A lot easier to find. You won't need to run any camber at all - in fact, they'll be sunk a bit. You could run a 255/35 with a 5mm spacer and still be well within spec.

It's smaller than the OEM tire, but people have and do run them occasionally. your speedo will be off by a bit. you can find the calculator online to find the difference.

Installing BC coils on my g35 coupe next week. Wanted to know if I will need to get the front fenders rolled ? Currently running 245/35/20 in the front. Wheels are 20 x 9.5, +15. Want to drop at least 2.5-3 inches.

I have BC Coils on my g35 coupe as well. I'm running 225/40/19 on the front with a 19x10 +9 and I could have gotten away without a pinch/roll in the front, but with your 245/35 especially since your on 20s, I would recommend getting the fronts pinched/rolled just to be on the safe side, especially to go with a 2-3 in drop.

Not a wheel guru, just learning from the true experts on here, ask Drew or 4DGS, they are very knowledgeable and can help you out!

that drop will give you more than enough natural camber to clear. I would suggest getting a pinch, cause I would put money on you wanting to go more aggressive on the future. get both sides rolled and pinched at the same time - saves time and money.

I'm considering purchasing a set of 350z rims (touring v2). They have 225/40/18 all around. I was thinking maybe there would be an inaccurate speedometer reading (or other issues) because of the different tire sizes on my 04 (sports package) sedan? I found the information on the "correct" size on another site. Thanks

Front
Size: 18x8.0
Offset: +30mm
Weight: 24.4
Tire: 225/45/18
Rear
Size: 18x8.5
Offset: +33mm
Weight: 25.8
Tire: 245/45/18

depends on which wheel/tire you car came with stock.

find that here:

https://g35driver.com/forums/wheels-...s-offsets.html

then compare to the tire sizes that are on there here:

http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html

IIRC, all g35 stock wheels come with atleast a 45 series tire, so those will read ~3% off, meaning you'll be going 58 when your speedo says 60.

I'm currently lowered on Eibach pro kit springs and running Wedsport SA67R rims: 19 x 9 (35 ) w/ 245/40 & 19 x 10 (42) w/ 275/35 General GMax tires.

I'm running - 2 camber all around.

I'm looking to upgrade to Forgestar F14 rims: 19 x 10 (38) front & 19 x 11 (45) rear with the same tires.

Anyone know if this would work / fit or just look ridiculous with my ride height and tires.

I used the offset calculator on 1010tires, new set up would give me 15mm less clearance inside and 10mm more rim outside front and rear.





Pics are just here to give you guys an idea of my current set up.

Thanks in advance.
