rear +22 9.5 offset question.

I'm narrowing my wheel shopping down to some LE37Ts in 9.5 +22. I've read alot of things here and on my350z about fender clearance.

My understanding is that if I dont lower, I wont need to roll the fender. Is this because the wheel will tuck in as it travels up? My driveway really twists. I dont know if the mean that the wheel wont travel that far (which mine does all the time) or if the geometry of the stock height will keep +22 (275) off the fender.

I *think* everything I've read says +22 8.5 in the front is not a problem.

thx

You will be fine with those sizes even if you want to lower it. Keep in mind there will be almost no lip, though.

I am also getting the 9.5 +22 for the rear. But now I am considering between the 275/35 or 275/30.

It's a matter of how much I will lower the car. Have you considered that as well?

I was shopping 18s with 40 series.

Well, I want concave spokes more than a phat lip.. I realize +30-something will give me flat spokes with a lip and no chance of a (rear) BBK later.

Guys, if you don't mind having no lip, get the 9.5 in the rear. However, I had the same setup and was just not satifsied. I ended up selling them and just received my 10.5 +22 in the rear. I'm loving it.

In regards to the 9.5 in the rear, even if you lower, say and inch or so, i don't think you'll have any rubbing issues.
