Wheel Fitment & Question Thread

[suprakid24]

I'm looking into getting some volk gt-c rims, 18x9 up front and 18x10 out back.

By looking around it seems as if the usual offset to go with is +35 all around, but I want it to look a little more aggressive without sticking way out. What would be a good offset to go with, or would +35 be fine with those sizes?

I think that there is +37 for the front and +35 for the back where I have found them so far, if anyone knows where to look for them lmk


Going out on a limb here, but just for curiosity - 19x9.5 for the rear? and 19x8 or 19x8.5 up front?

you can fit a 19x9 (+31) and 19x10.5 (+40) without rolling your fenders.

Might as well roll the fenders and get a more agressive GT-C setup:

19x9.5s, face 1, high 20s offset

19x10.5s, face 2, mid 20s offset

Good places to search for these rims would be my350z.com and g35driver.com. You'll be able to find them between $1200 and $2000. Some with tires and some without.

will a 285 size tire fit in the back?

 

[jdub]

Yes...with stock (or near stock) offset.

Hi,

I've got the widebody model. I bought some wheels and my rear is 9.5" +44. I test fitted it and it seems like it will hit the rear strut. Theres some pics at the start of the thread with a similar offset to this. Are they using spacers because i'm not sure how they got it on there.

 

[gtimportfanatic]

offset has to be somewhere aare 30-35.. any lower and u prolly have to roll the fender.. any higher n u will hit strut.. spacers willl prolly solve ur issue

What are you talking about, people run mk4 +50 tt rims all the time with no issues. Unless his car is extremely lowered or these rims are 19"+ or running an improper size tire he should have no issues.

Do you have any new pics man(of your car not the one with the Weds)?
I love your taste.

 

[garagefujimoto]

LOL I should
I am testing out some different wheel options, fender flares might be required

Thats what i was under the impression too, but it seems to hit the springs.

The wheels are 18x9.5" Unless people have rear coilovers where the springs maybe narrower than my one (bilsteins).

Has anyone tried putting 18's from an IS300 on your MK3? Do they fit?
Thanks

They do fit, there's a member on here (can't remember the user name tho). They don't look half bad either.

 

[67rstbkt]

I found some pics on here and they don't look half bad. I may need to use some wheel spacers since they don't look like they come out towards the fender enough.
Thanks!

I want to make sure the wheels I'm going to buy are going to fit without a problem I'm pretty sure they will I just want some reassurance. I'm also going to be putting on the wilwood 4 piston BBK on the front so I'm hoping they will fit as well.

Blitz type 03 18x9 +38
18x10 +45

Thanks
