Have a Question/s About Wheels/Tires/Offsets/Camber/Etc? Ask here::
I have always liked the coupe and I wanted one and lucked into a nice one because I work for a MINI dealer and this 04 has only 63k miles and now I want to start making her look better!!! I found a set of 20's in our storage that will fit. I have always liked the stretch look on rims.

square setup doesn't necessarily look bad on a coupe its just not as common....most go with staggered setup
the 20x10 and 20mm offset actually won't be too bad for the coupe even for a squared setup....only problem is that you wanna stretch and with that offset its not going to look good having it stretched....you would need much more aggressive offsets for it to look good with stretched tires

Hi guys, first off, I have done a lot of searching and asked a few of the members here for some information and everyone has been really informative, so thank you.
My question is:
I have an 03 Coupe and am wanting to run 10.5 all around on stance sc5
the offset is +27 for these
and tire size im considering is 275/30/20r and 255/35/20f
In your opinions, will I need to roll or pull the fenders to prevent rubs?
Are the tires I am thinking of going to be too wide and maybe I should consider running a different tire?
I really want the Vossen Cv3 but the extra price difference is enough to have to hold off on those and since I have not seen any G coupes on 10.5 stance all around (Im sure someone has done it) I wanted clarification on whether these wheels in this offset would work as I already know the Vossens in 10.5 have been pulled off.
I will be dropped on BC coilovers, but will I require any other suspension mods?
The car is not daily driven, it has only had 243 miles put on it this year
Any info provided is greatly appreciated or recommendations
Thank you

Hi all,
I'm looking to replace my OEM 18s on my '03 coupe since one of them is bent and it seems like an appropriate time to just get a new set.
I had just gotten new tires, so I don't want to get new ones. The current sizes I have are (F) 225/45/18 and (R) 245/45/18. I'm a noobie when it comes to tires and wheel sizing, and from my understanding the OEM 18s are 18x8 all around. Could I do 18x8.5 all around without stretching the tires too much? Any suggestions or other sizes that could fit my tires, since 18x8 setups are harder to find? Thanks!

Anybody tried Toyo Proxes 4 Plus? Curious if they stretch well. They have some insane treadwear rating of 560- last longer on cambered cars?

Too much bullshit in here now, I don't know whose talking about what.
Toyos stretch pretty good, but because of high treadwear don't expect them to last longer than cheapos.

Last question. Im just confused tried searching but couldnt find the right answer
so like i said before i have 20x9 +25 with 245/35 20x10 +25 with 275/35 and what ambiguous said i should be able to run this setup with 15mm spacers up front and 20mm in the back with fenders rolled.
Question is though, so what would my offset be if i add the spacers?
Would it make it 20x9 +10 and 20x10 +5? just confused more than anything. Spacers are coming in this tomorrow, but wont be able to install them til this weekend-next week since i want to roll my fenders first.
Hopefully not rub! dropped on 350z stech.
Really appreciate your help!
