Ian Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Offset is how far they stick out, the lower the number the further they stick out . Mine are a +22 offset so these would stick out by a further 10mm 9.5" is the width of the wheel Quote
nate247 Posted January 10, 2009 Author Posted January 10, 2009 Much clearer... thanks buddy... I think yours look about right, so if the ones advertised stick out another 10mm, it would look odd. Also, without the stagger, I could be running the risk of the traction control kicking in all of the time (much like my current ones). I presume you can fit bigger back tyres to get the stagger but I think I would rather do it properly if poss. Will email the seller now to say not of interest... I will keep looking though... Quote
Ian Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 These are a +12 http://my350z.com/forum/wheels-tires/40 ... tires.html Quote
nate247 Posted January 10, 2009 Author Posted January 10, 2009 Thanks for the link... they look like 18"'s... not sure if I am correct in saying? Ideally I am after some 19" for a silver 350z (so normal alloy color or gunmetal / black). I guess could always paint the above if 19"... Just emailed that seller on eBay to say not interested. However he can back with this. "Yes the sizes are odd, I would recommend using these 19 x 9.5 alloys with 245/35 tyres on your car"... Presumably the problems with the lack of a stagger would still be apparent though? Quote

nate247 Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 Thanks guys... what I needed to hear. I will keep looking in which case and also keep checking my PM's for a reply from Adam. Cheers... Quote
