Collectindust240Z Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 I'm thinking about getting a set of ZG flares and was wondering what offset I would need to fill out the flares. American Racing makes a new panasport copy that can be ordered in custom widths and offsets. Any help would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 0 offset, and atleast 8.5 inches wide, would look real nice, i think you can run a 9.5 inch wide rim with ZGs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fl327 Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 On3go has 17x11 in the back of his green car with zgs. Ive seen 9.5 with stock rear suspension, I believe on3go has coilovers and slim springs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zguitar71 Posted March 18, 2005 Share Posted March 18, 2005 If you have a stock suspension (no coilovers) you will need to have a max backspacing of 4.5 inches or less. So a 0 offset 8.5 would be too much back space, it might clear the springs but it would be very close. A 16x8.5 with a -12 to -19 offset will fill out the flares with 245/45/16. A lot of the old school Z use 16 or 15 x 9.5 with -19 offset but I think they stick out too far and I am not a big fan of the streached sidewall look.
