Hi all, I've not been on the forum for quite a long time and the Z has been just sitting for a few years. A full house renovation and 2 kids later I am going to now get the Z back on the road. Having sat for so long the tyres will all be knackered so I want to get a new set of alloys which will also do away with the current 60mm spacers on the rear. The car has a wide arch kit. I have seen some sets of Work equips with the following sizes/offsets but I need some help in understanding if they will let me do away with the spacers and fit ok?

 

Rears

12x18" offset +22.

Or

10x18" offset -33

 

 

Fronts

9x18" offset +22 or +35

Or

9.5x18" offset +27

 

Any advice on what would work best or if none are suitable!!!

Welcome back! Still selling s/h parts?

This site is really good for comparing wheel and tyre sizes.

 

Adding a spacer is the same as reducing your wheel offset

(i.e. an ET+40 wheel with a 20mm spacer fits in the same place as having a ET +20 wheel with no spacer)

Hi I can have a look at the wheel sizes on my wide arch, and post them up for you if that helps?

 

No wheel spacers on mine :ph34r:

Thanks that would be great.

Found some old posts and looks like the rears 10x18" with a -33 offset is pretty close to the original OZ Futura 10x17" -31mm offset. Should also keep the tyre costs down a bit. Fronts though are where I really need advice. What is everyone else with either 9 or 9.5" x 18" fronts running in terms of offset?
