Trying to salvage some of the money I wasted on 370z wheels by using the tires. They are Bridgestone Potenza RE050A245/40/19f and 275/35/19 r. My car is lowered with Ltuned suspension.

My concern is the wheels I'm putting the tires on have +35mm offset front & rear. Widths are 8.5f & 9.5 rear. Should I expect rubbing at all? If so I'll just save myself the trouble of getting the tires taken off the 370z wheels and sell that setup outright and buy some 35/30 profile 19"

Moderator know there's a wheel & tire section but nobody responds & the local tire shops here in SAT aren't experts with offsets on anything other than trucks. If anyone else has +35f & rear pixs please!

 

that set up will be fine with a 35+ 8.5f & 9.5 wheel

 

front will rub a little on turns and going on to drive way. rears need to be shaved. also keep in mind depends how low you are.

 

agreed
I'm pretty sure he can get away with this one without shaving. Its only 9.5 +35. Even with the slightly taller tire I don't think there should be any issue.

 

I decided to go ahead and pick up some new tires. If I still lived in Hawaii I would have gone with the fat setup since there's a huge import tuner scene there and finding good shops to dismount the wheels without jacking them up, cutting the fenders, etc... is so much easier. Here in San Antonio if you don't know anybody with a shop you're going to be in for alot of issues with service.

 

Yep did some digging around at 2am last night and pretty much came to that conclusion. I have L tuned springs. They been on for about 3 days now and I have a loose 2 finger gap both front and back. With the +35 I'm going to be pretty even with the fender in the front for sure and that 40 series tire will rub. The rear with the +35 would rub as well but not as badly as my front. For those looking to do the same setup out there if you're willing to get the fender work done go for it but otherwise get the lower profile tire. Your roads should be a factor as well

 

must post pics when all is done

 

Absolutely the wheels came in today and they have NEVER been done on any Lexus!

 

I think the only problem is that the speedo might be out due to the taller tyres.

 

To give u an idea the setup I have it's 20x9.5 +35 with 225/35 rear 20x10.5 +35 with 245/35
Lowered with Tein CS no rubbing at all no fender mods perfect fit flush with fenders

 

He was reffering fat setup. not stretched tires.

 

Hmm... G37 wheels?
