Widest wheels you can fit under a z32?

    Rather than spend hours trawling through heresay can anyone tell me what the widest wheels that can fit under a Z32 without massive guard mods? Happy to lip guards but don't really want to chopping stuff to pieces just yet.

    For example, I'm looking at a set of 18x9.5 & 18x11 Crossfire D Spec wheels as a starting point style wise which are available in a +18, +20 and +25 offset. Is this doable in say a +25 or do I need to stick to say an 18x10 rear?

    18x9+25-35 front
    18x10+35-45 rear

    10+35rear will need guard rolling or more depending on tyre size

    I run 18x10+40 on the rear with stock guards unrolled, but I am not low.

    18x10.5+45 but expect to work for it.

    Thanks mate, looks like sticking to 10's is the way forward.

    What width and offset are those 20's? I have a set on the 2+0 that I'm not a fan of and want to ditch in favour of some more aggressive looking 18's.

    Something that needs to be considered is,

    theoretically, the greater the "footprint/contact area" you obtain, the LESSER downforce/weight is being exerted per sq/cm of said contact area(this CAN/MAY result in a reduction in overall "Grip")which is the opposite of what you should be hoping to achieve.:zlove::br:

    That's why you should always run at least four degrees of negative camber, for maximum grip.

    I don't know the off set but rest is on side walls :br:
