Guest Nappy Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 if i have a 16x8 wheel with +15mm offset and i have coilovers and stock fenders, will it fit on my 240z? i want to use a 245/45/16 tire. btw ive calculated backspacing and sized wheels for my other car and i am familiar with it but i do not know how much backspacing i need for the 240z and therefore cant calculate this myself. thanks for your help -Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drftn280zxt Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 tim os running +12.7mm offset so +15mm is a little to much maybe. Tim how much clearance is a little bit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 1/4 inch or so to the spring, and ~1/4 inch or so to the fender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drftn280zxt Posted July 18, 2004 Share Posted July 18, 2004 well there you have it probably +12.7mm or less offset would be your best bet. Cutting it any closer than 1/4" is to risky I think. +15mm doesn't sound like it would work unless you plan on rubbing against the spring .
