junglist Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Here are two pictures I took of RB240Z's car at the Nissan 370Z event here in Chantilly, VA. He has 16 x 8 Rota RBR's with a +4 offset. No rolled fenders or flares. Lowered on Nissan Competition springs I believe. I think with only 17x8.5 wheels that they won't be wide enough. You should look into getting the group buy Rota RB-R's that are 17x9 and 17x9.5 if you are set on doing ZG flares. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Are you looking at the RBR 17x8.5? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 You have any pics of the 17's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srbigbutt Posted December 20, 2008 Share Posted December 20, 2008 8.5 with +4 offset fit fine in the front if you can get them on without a spacer. The spring perch is extremely tight. Mine fit perfect. Now the rears in another thing. I need to roll my fenders and I should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
