Offset question +30f/+33r

Will they fit properly? Or will they stick out. I want them flush or close to it. I just don't want them hanging out.

I am on TEIN Coilovers. And rim size is going to be 18"

Ok the specs:

F18x8 +30
R18x8.5 +33

Yes 99BlackMaxMS is right
I am looking for 350z 5 Spoke 18's
225/45/18 and 245/45/18

Rears should be flush, fronts might stick out a tad (im on stock suspension FYI..and only put them on for 30 mins) I like the AE rims on your car tho.

I think you want the lower offset for the rear. How wide are they, and what size of tires will you be using?

That makes me think his wheels (or tires) may be staggered. Pretty typical to run .5" wider in the rear and compensate with offset to match the front. This approach isn't very beneficial on the A32 as it is cancelled out by the track difference in the rear.

I think he is using the 350Z anniversary wheels, which like all 350Z wheels are staggered.

Maybe he should state what wheels and give me information on the wheels, i.e. width. That's kinda what I meant. I love how i get my point across.

It works every time.

not all

the 2k3 touring came with staggered tires only

and actually tires play a role too... i had 2X5/50/17 and they were so flush, then i got 2X5/45/17 and they were less flush

assume they are stock tires (225/45/18 and 245/45/18), they should be pretty good IMO

front will be close to flush, rear will be slightly sunk in (perfect for tein's soft drop).

Fronts will be flush depending on the tire if you plan on using 245s. Rears could use a 10mm spacer to offset the shorter track with the beam. If you're low you'll rub so you might need to roll your fenders.
