.:Bullen:. Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Hi guys looking for help on this one. I have looked at a few sets of wheels mainly second hand etc but im leaning towards the rota grids. If i go for a 9-9.5j front & 10j rear what sort of offset can I get away with ? A set popped up for sale locally with an offset of 38 front 35 rear. Will this clear the calipers ? I know the min & max should be 20-30 I believe any help appreciated. Just looking for a nice staggered stance. Quote
Sized Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Those offsets are not great bud. With those widths I'd be looking at et22 as a minimum, and probably et15 to get a nice flush stance. I run 9.5j and 10.5j SSRs with et22 offset all round and it looks spot on to my eyes Quote
.:Bullen:. Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 You got any pics mate ? Also I take it if I added a 20mm spacer all round that should bring the offset down & then flush with the arch ? Quote
Sized Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Some pics on here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/61701-ssr-type-f-fitted-pics/ although they don't really show the flush-ness that well! There's room for more on the front probably but not a lot. 20mm spacer should sort you out yep, but Tarmac or CS on here can sort you out with the right offsets, which would be a much better option imo Quote
.:Bullen:. Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 Thanks for that mate, I did check out CS site but seems they can only get hold of 19" I want to keep 18" ideally maybe ill give Tarmac a shout. Thanks for your help Quote

Hi mate, for rota grids they come in the perfect sizes and offsets which are 9.5 front, 10.5 rear. ET20. This will clear the brembos and give a great looking stance without the need to start messing with the arches. As for those second hand ones, essentially just space them to ET20 and they will be the same. Speak to Chris at Tarmac Sportz if you after a new set (just seen you are after 18" not 19" so not sure if they do the sizes i've mentioned in that size but i dont see why they wouldn't and as for the widths and offset, they will be the same anyway) Edited January 8, 2013 by S1 HNK Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) We offer the full range of Rota wheels, 18" included... For the 19" in the Grids we offer 9.5" front and 10.5 rear with them both being ET20 which suits the 350z perfectly... Edited January 8, 2013 by CS Quote
.:Bullen:. Posted January 8, 2013 Author Posted January 8, 2013 What sort of price for 18s can you do ? If you can do me some for a few styles that will be great. I dont really want to go 19s as the tyres will be dearer & I can always come by 18" drift tyres ha Quote
