No I am not lowered at all. I really appreciate the quick response and I'm going outside to measure right now.

Okay guys I feel really stupid. I just searched another website and apparently the wheels come in 40 offset.

Help with new fitment for APR Widebody

Hey guys, so I'm picking up Kris Yu's old APR Widebody G35 Coupe http://www.importtuner.com/features/..._infiniti_g35/ and I want to fit new wheels on her.

The APR gives +45 mm on the 'Front Fender' and +50 mm on the 'Rear Fender'.
She currently running DPE S20's 20x11 Front, and 20x13 Rear. From what I've read, DPE doesn't disclose their offsets.

I'm going for the deep concave style for super aggressive stance. Currently on the DPEs, full aired out. She'll sit with -6 camber in the 'Rear'. I'm going for a conservative amount of negative camber. (Maximum -3.5 Rear, and probably -1.75 Front)

The goal is to have the fender sit on the rim, or have the rim tucked right inside the fender when full aired out. I'll probably run a small amount of stretch. The fenders are made of fiberglass so I have to be careful.

Going from 20x11 F, and 20x13. Does anyone have an idea or how to calculate what wheel specs I should buy. Trying to stay away from spacers. The company I am buying from will do custom offsets.

Available specs: 20x10/11/12, Offsets: Any

What width for Front/Rear and offsets?

Thanks!

Really something you should figure out on your own.... You've already bought someone's previously built car, don't have someone pick your wheel specs too.

Yeah, would definitely be something easy to figure out on my own if everyone had an APR wide body so I can learn from someone's experience when it comes to fitment. So that's why I'm asking for help, and you're not being really helpful. FYI, the G35 has been entirely parted out with only a handful of parts left.

The tire kinda bulges out a bit, I'm worried that even with the drop and natural camber, that it will rub against the fender. Don't mind the dirt, and that's around a 3 finger gap, with the sidewall of the tire bulging out maybe 1 centimeter past the fender (Birds eye view). Thanks

Sold my 20" HRE's, just ordered some more functional gs4's in 19's. (I know they're kinda played out but idc cause I love em). Specs I got were 9.5" -2 11" +2. I know my tire sizes pretty well after researching for my aggressive HRE's but I wouldn't mind getting some additional input.

So, would you all recommend a 225/35 on the front or could I get away with a 235/35? I only have the fronts rolled not pulled. Also, could I get away with a 275/30 on the rear? I have a mild pull on the rears from the HRE's I had. If not I plan on pulling the trigger on some 265/30's.

My main goal is to eliminate unnecessary stretch.

Thanks!

Also, FWIW and for future reference for those interested, I am now a big fan of Achilles ATR, especially for the price. They stretch real good (255/35 on a 12") and the ride quality/ noise isn't too bad as well. Ran about 5k miles on them and only wore about 15% of the tire. Was at -3 camber. I'll be running on these again.

225/35 and 255/35 would be an even stretch if those sizes are both available in the ATR. I plan on buying those for my next set also!

No 255/35/19's in the ATR for some reason. Doesn't make much sense.

Gs4's are nice- what finish did you get? I would've went for 10.5 rear so you could get the ATRs in 245/35! Lol

Varrstoen Es1

Thinking of going these wheels or Vossens. Just picked up my car 2 weeks ago.

The Varrstoen that I wanted to run were 20x10 +15 front and 20x10 +25 rear. Can this be done with a proper fender roll and some pulling? Or should I stay with a lower front size. I see alot of coupes run 10s all around but not sedans. Mine is a 2003 g35 sedan.

Any help much appreciated


My back up is Vossen Cv4

20x9 + 20 FRONT 225/35/20
20X10.5 + 25 REAR 255/35/20

This is exactly what I am looking for on the sedan with a +15 front 20X10 and +25 rear 20x10

Please confirm this is possible with a good amount of camber and and drop
