Is there such a thing as this type of guide for the wheels and fitament of wheels on a zed? (I spent a while searching before this post but didn't come up with anything.)

 

I'm on the lookout for wheels and I saw a set with the following dimensions:

19x9.0 +42 PCD: 5/114.3 for the front

19x10.0 +37 PCD: 5/114.3 for the rear

 

I see from searches I have done that a 9.5" rear with a 35" offset has a nice aggressive stance (Funkysi's being an excellent example). However would the same offset be ok with a 10" rear wheel or does the width of the wheel have a significant bearing?

 

Does the offset on the front make sense with a 19"rim?

 

I know that the size of a tyre would have a bearing on the fitting in the arch, so for the above I would be thinking of a 265 on the front and a 285 on the rear. Am I correct in my thinking here or would the 265 rub on hard lock? My suspension has been slightly lowered from standard.

Cant help with z32 fitments but in case anybody (or a collection of folk) with the right knowledge want to pull together a wheel fitment guide, here is a really good template to base it on, I'm on this site every other day to check out whether ebay wheels will fit my z31 - http://www.az-zbum.com/information.wheels.and.tires.shtml

If you know Funkysi's offsets and you want a similiar setup then you can use an online offset calculator to compare against. Like http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

Thanks guys.

 

That offset calculator is brilliant when it comes to comparing proposed wheels to other setups.
