I have a chance of swopping my 18 inch grey atecs for some white 9.5x18 et30 rota gtr's, but i wouldnt keep them painted white as my zed is blue and that would look silly:rofl: Can anyone tell me if i will have a problem with this offset/width

cheers

Sorry ultralite atecs

Good job you wouldn't keep them white. Rarely seen white wheels that suit a Z. Infact I can only think of Zs with white wheels that have looked good and they were solid white anyway.

 

Very nice wheel apart from being white. You will have to roll the arches for that rear. I am on the max with ET35. On a 9.5" whide wheel. You might get away with fitting stretched tyres, but I'm not a fan of the stretched look. You're very borderline. Trial fit one and see how it looks.

 

What's the spec of the fronts?

 

Here's my rear. 9.5" ET35 with 275 35 18

 

Mine are dead-level with the arches. As I said, if you were to fit 265s, you may get away with it, but your wheels/tyres will be sticking outside of the arch with ET30 on a 9.5"

Im pretty sure the wheels are the same size front and rear, if its gonna rub the arch or flare out a lot without rolling the arch then i may just stick with what i got!

You've got more chance of it rubbing on the insides of the liners with that width and offset on the front. Fronts require different offsets to the rears to balance the look out and fit correctly.

They will fit, BUT your rear arches will need rolling a little and your front arch liners would need some adjustment. You can dial your camber in a bit to reduce the amount of work needed on the arch lips, but you'll get added tyre wear. I prefer staggered widths personally, but equal widths with same offsets can look good. This would be a similar look you'll get. These are 10" wide wheels with an ET of 28.

 

 

Unfortunately, arch lips look somewhat messy.
