i know the staggered setup works but thats with differing offsets, using the same offsets for equal width wheels is what im offered with the 5zigens

 

I suppose the question is....Is anyone else running this setup

 

I love the wheels its just a shame its not so simple as just buying them :console:

I don't know of anyone off hand in the UK running the same width all round (other than on standard rims ;) ). However, there are many who run this sort of set up in the US. Try my350z.com or 350z-tech.com (search first or you will be flamed!) and see what those guys are running. Or PM Adam at Z1 Performance (one of our traders) - he will know and is a good guy so shouldn't mind giving out a little free advice. :thumbs:

Digsy is right, standard 17" wheels are the same width all round, 8" IIRC. Rays are 8 and 8.5".

 

I would go with a staggered setup though if you can :thumbs:

 

When did the Zed come with standard 17"? Thought they were all 18" ? Some JDM's come with 17". I have a set in the garage that are staggered, 8 and 8.5, I stand corrected on the 1" difference!

 

These!

Aren't the standard (non-Rays) rims the same width all round?

 

Nope, all wheels that come on the cars from Nissan are staggered by at least 1"... Thats why you have the little screw thing on the front hubs to stop you from putting the rear wheels on the front!

 

no they aren't...at least not on US cars

 

all the tires are staggered, but some trim levels have the same width wheels all around

 

let us know what wheels you're after, as we're big dealers for 5Zigen

The wheels I was referring to are what you guys call Touring on the earlier models. :thumbs:
