240Z & 260Z Wheel/Tyre Options, Offset, Backspace

[geoffdy 1]

Some new 260z 2+2 measurements..

 

Front: 16x8 +8 with 205/55 (Sit about 5mm from the spring perch)

Rear: 16x8.5 +12 with 225/50 (plenty of room either side)

 

 

 

What suspension setup do you have? I'm planning to order toyo tires with the same size as yours but I want to lower my car a bit.

Car is lowered with aftermarket Springs and does not rub.

 

Depends on what wheel offset you're going.

does anyone have fitted currently or in the past, 15 x 6.5JJ +17?

 

I'm curious how the positive offset might sit, and if i will have issues. my 2+2 is currently on standard suspension, but will eventually be lowered somewhat

Hi all,

Have just read this entire thread, I am more confused than how I started,

I have a 260 2+2, I would like to run flares, 

Is there a wheel offset/size that in the members opinion works best?

 

Thanks in advance,

Try watching this, as it might help. 3:49 seconds.

I tried to restore the images Sulio attached in the first post here, but they are gone and I cannot recover them. Would be great if someone could supply images and I can fix the first post of this thread.
