    having trouble finding out if this fitment will work. help please.

    found some niche verona wheels that look the part.

    i found some cosmis S1 BUT they are 18x9.5 +15 offset and 18x10.5 +5 offset but i think they will stick out too far.

    any advice greatly appreciated

    prefer 18's but will go 19's if have too.

    thanks

    will work fine on rear with no work. may need a roll if lowered and on fat tyres.

    front will need roll, camber and skinny tyres

    Yes. I'm running 19x9.5" +30 all round on mine, yours would sit 5mm further in so should be easy.
    My fronts have minimal camber & I run a 245 tyre (only because they came with them). When time comes for new tyres will be going to a 255, possibly a 265.

    Rears again running minimal camber (looks close to stock but need an alignment so no exact figures), have lightly rolled the rears & run a 275/30/19. Get a slight rub on bumper tab over large compressions, will be lifting 5mm before gor cruise on weekend which should solve it.

    cheers, Tim

    You're getting pretty close with those numbers, do you want them snug inside the guards like the good old days or don't mind mind some stretch, camber and guard rolling? I think you can get away without pumping the guards.

    Don't mind if I have to roll the guards, definately don't want to pump the guards. Prefer the flush look i think.

    Don't like the stretch look either.

    19's definitely depend on the wheel design & the type of zed you have. I like them on a 2+2 but not on a 2+0.

    Those 18's are a mixed bag, fronts will be fine but rears will sit 11mm further out than mine (or 16mm further out than the 19" option). Talking rolling, fair bit of camber & stretched tyres.

    Use an offset calculator like the one at 1010tires to compare sizes against whatever you have currently, should give you a better idea.

    +1.

    I'm running these on the rear with a 275/30 tyre and had to roll the guards. I would have gone +30 given the chance again.

    z32 is balanced well the 2+2 are, the rear rim will stick out 12.5mm more than the front, this will cause under steer. If you want stagger with big offset, go 18x9 +22 front , 18x10 +35 rear these sizes will have neutral handling (same track) and will not fit in the guards without work, but will be less work then 18x10 +25

    performance front wheel drive = wider front track
    performance mid mount = wider rear track
    performance front midship (z32) = same track
