Guest ON3GO Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Ok im thinking of getting wheels for my blue Z. going for that oldschool look, and im down to 2 wheels. heres the wheels and and heres a question whats the most negitive offset i can run with 100% bone stock suspension on this 280Z? i heard -3, which would be cool cuz it would give me more of a lip. i might put lowering springs on after the wheels but thats it (for now anyways) and what would be better and would work.. 15x7 or 15x8's? remember stock suspension and no flares. and heres some pic of the cars, what will look better u think? and with the air dam it now has... thanks and let me no if the pictures work for you..

fl327 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 the four spoke ones would be my pick. I would also stick with 7 inch wide in the front, and possibly 8" rears if using stock fender and suspension. i think max is like 4.5 inch bs in the rear with the stock suspension in the rear.

Guest ON3GO Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 can anybody help me out on what offset will work on my Z? mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest iskone Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 You can figure it out if your not getting any help, from me for example. You can look at your current setup see how much clearnce you've got now(through fuul travel, may need to use 2 jacks) then pop up your wheel find out your BS and then add to that BS how much farther you can go. When I look at my car I always think "I got to be able to get at least another 1" back there" But then again I havn't tried it, it's just what I thought of trying to do the same thing you are. For the blue Z I'd say thegold ones if you want to go OS I like the 4 spokes one black and grey/silver cars. Isaac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toysport Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 mike, once you've figured out the proper offset for your Z......the four spoke will look real nice. john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ON3GO Posted July 24, 2004 Share Posted July 24, 2004 ya i no... 4 spoke is what i want.. but im still lost on what will work and etc.. i heard only 0 so i guess thats it. 15x8's here i come! mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
