Max offset
Monday, November 10, 2008 11:28 AM
Hi,

I've looked in the FAQ's but couldn't find the answers i was looking for.

I'm the owner of a 96 Z and it's lowered 2" on suspension tecniques springs, i previously had a set of 17's on it and it looked and sat nicely. However i sold them as i needed money and now have a set of 16" Enkei RP02's on it which don't look good enough.

I've seen 2 sets of wheels on ebay, a set of 17x8 advans which have an offset of 37 and a set of Rota's which are 17x7.5 but have an offset of 48!


I'm pretty sure the Rota's won't fit but i think the Advans should be fine.

Please could anyone correct of confirm this for me.


Regards


Ian

45mm is the best in my opinion

Thanks!

I've bid on the Advan's but have now seen a set of 18" Lenso CF's for sale.

New wheels by spring i hope!

I'm now looking at a set of 18" Lenso C5's and am awaiting confirmation that they'll fit the Z pcd wise. They tires on it are 215' s and 235's so how wide are the wheels themselves and will they fit the Z as they are ET 35???

we cant tell you how wide the rim is just from the width of the tire size. a 35mm offset is kinda low and really the lowest you should go with a j. im going to assume with that size wheel and that offset that the wheel is probably 8.5" wide or possibly 8"
