simon da silva Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Hey Guys. I've found a set of some AWESOME wheels.. but they are 11 inch wide in the back and low ET +8. Will i be able to fit the wheels on the car with the rear fenders rolled? or will this be to extreme? maybe i could machine some mm of the hub so the ET would get a little higher? maybe aim for ET16? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 They will fit with some arch work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacky Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Well I'm running 11" with an et23 and they are very flush, so I think you will need to pull the arches, which IMO never look good. Your probably going to have to run some camber as well. Tyre choice will also come into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon da silva Posted April 26, 2011 Author Share Posted April 26, 2011 You think it would be possible to machine some of the wheel of? this would increase the ET a bit? maybe go for 16 and then put on some 265 tires to stretch them a little?

I have 285 on the back and could go to 295 with no rubbing issues. Have you looked on my350z.com as they have an aggresive wheel and stretched tyre thread thats huge. I'm sure yours can be done but with the right arch work, camber and tyre choice, just a case of doing your homework. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIcad7 Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 Should be fine mate, Im now running 18x12 et +5 with 265 tyres and they just rub but the car is probably one of the lowest Z's around 265's on an 11J is hardly a stretch, on a 12J its a stretch but still not massively. When I bought the wheels they had 245's on them which was stupendous stretch I had to cut them off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
