What is the maximum off set people can get on wheels front and rear with out the use of wheel spacers or wide arches

 

project banana has stupid 100mm wheel spacers and now i have to replace 2 bearings. i know exteme ofset will be no differant then using wheel spacers but i want to take of the vader wide arch kit and tame it down

Depends what wheel width you go for.

biggest possible possible i have seen some 13j ssrs

i dont want too much tyre width maximum 255mm i dont mind the stretched look but i would prefer it didn't look stretched.

225 on the front

13J won't fit for starters on a stock body as there's not enough internal wheel well clearance. I think the max width you can go for would be around 10.5" with an offset of around 45? You may even need to roll the arch lip a little with that. Go too far the other way and the inside of the wheel will touch the suspension.

 

Same goes for the front. Without taking the arch liners off, you could probably get a +34 in on a 9" wheel.

thank you that helps alot

:)

on the front I run a 9.5J with et+20 on a 255/35R18 and only needed to slightly massage the mounting points for the arch liner. I have zero scrubbing issues either

You may need to subscribe to veiw it but this thread has a massive amount of information regarding the fitment of wheels to the 300zx.

I think my rears are 9J with a +35 offset and I had to roll my arches to get them to fit once I lowered it some more. The ride height can make quiet a difference to the fitment.

It's not the best pic in the world to give you an idea of a +20 offset on 9.5J's up front, but you get the idea

 

Tell I lie, just checked, they're ET+22 not 20's

Your car is looking great Nick, nice to see it again :thumbup:

Cheers buddy. Hopefully it'll be back on the road again in the near future

nick no wheel spacers to get that fitment ?

Nope, none at all. The rears are 10.5J et30 on 295/30R18 but the rear arches needed quite a bit of a flare. I've got a pic of pre flare somewhere, I'll see if I can find it

Before flare
