BobbyZ Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 Very nice would you mind sharing the sizes and offsets (and spacers if used)? 1 Quote
monkeybrain1234 Posted July 15, 2015 Posted July 15, 2015 These are wheels I want . . . . . grrrrrrrrr Look really good on your Z 1 Quote
Mikevv Posted July 16, 2015 Posted July 16, 2015 YOU BLOODY BUGGER!!! Look great I want a set for my Z but only once my 18's are shot. Works out about £50 more expensive to get 19 inch tyres, and upgrade to 245/40/19 up front and 275/40/19 on the rear, rather than the 225/45/18 and 245/45/18 I got currently. Can I ask what size you're running, both tyre and rim? FYI I would go 265 as I'm a bit worried about rubbing, but I've seen people do it fine on this forum, and it's £50 a tyre cheaper to go 275!!!! Got a black car, so choosing an appropriate colour would be hard. normal silver looks great for the contrast, but darker colours look badass too!! I hope they don't get the dreaded curb rash 1 Quote
scobie140 Posted July 16, 2015 Author Posted July 16, 2015 Cheers folks. Very nice would you mind sharing the sizes and offsets (and spacers if used)? 19x9.5 ET20 front 255/35 19x11 ET25 rear 275/35 No spacers No issues with rubbing etc, Not sure if i would maybe try a 285 on the rear next time to make it less stretched looking as i'm not that low so might not rub. I'd love to lower it more for less of a gap but struggle with the speedbumps as it is so can't go any lower. Got the tyres form oponeo.co.uk worked out much cheaper than any garage or dealer could supply them 2 Quote
jonty88 Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 Awesome wheels mate, these would look great on my Z also! Thanks for sharing the sizes with us as well, helps me a lot as im also looking to upgrade to 19s 1 Quote
jonty88 Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 (edited) Oh wait these are Linear Corse wheels right?! Ive been looking at these for a while, ive only just clicked on haha Always wondered how these would fit on a UK car as ive only ever seen them on US models. Having seen yours it definitely fills me with confidence! Edited July 19, 2015 by jonty88 1 Quote
Rock_Steady Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Oh baby!! They look fab!! Very complimentary 1 Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Very nice mate .... Really suit the colour and car . Good job 1 Quote
Mikevv Posted July 20, 2015 Posted July 20, 2015 Can I just ask, how much did you lower your car by? I'm looking at a set of these around Christmas hopefully but maybe later. Yours looks about as low as I want to go, as stock it's already a lot lower than most cars I know haha Please share your suspension set up so I can have a look at costs Otherwise probably just get some form of Tein set up Quote

Got a alignment done after I fitted all those and made a huge difference, still enough adjustment left for a little to play with. no rubbing etc with this set up either. I think if you go lower then you need to add in new camber arms etc to allow adjustment and would probably have to roll the arches depending on how much camber you have. I think my rear drop links are going to need changed soon so they will get upgraded to whiteline's and ill get another alignment done. Quote
The Big Miester Posted July 21, 2015 Posted July 21, 2015 Very nice sir be honest tho not sure on the colour personally,but looks wise and clean finish plus the wheels look good on a zed 1 Quote

Yeh fit over the brembo's no problem. straight fit no spacers. No rubbing with my set up, I've not checked behind the wheel to see what clearance there is there but i reckon i could possibly squeeze the bigger sizes on at a push, possibly would need more camber though or arches rolled. I don't want to commit and say yeh you'l be fine incase i'm wrong and you end up with tyres that don't fit under the arch lol. Quote
