I think TE37s are only available in +12? I think you'll need to roll guards for 10.5 +12, you will have more chance of not having to roll guards with 10.5 +22.

9.5 +12 you should be able to fit with a bit of camber. Safe choice is the 9.5 +22.

My car as reference, fronts are 8.5 +14 and rears are 10.5 +24

EDIT : Fronts are running 3.5-degrees camber, rears are around 3-degrees.

Looking for a set for my zed and was wondering whats the best offset in 18's? Will 18x9.5 +15 (F) and 18x10.5 +15 ® fit? It will be on standard suspension and don't want to roll guards if I don't have to. Cheers

Neither will fit unless you stretch a narrow tyre.

For TE37s +22 offset in those widths is the accepted limit for stock guards and camber.

Roll the gear guards and get camber arms on the front, and those things will fit just fine with a reasonabe-size tyre.

Yeah, the thing is f**ked.

Send me an email, from the email address you want to use, to 350z-tech-mod @ au-z.org (sans spaces, of course) with your desired user name.

I have no idea what offset I run, but my rear wheels are 10.5", and I have acres more space available: glancing at it, I don't think I'd have too much trouble fitting 11.5" - 12" rears, and I'm running very little negative camber from what I can tell... Is this normal?

mine are 10.5 +18 and i am running -2.5 deg camber, but my tyre us a 295 so that explains why. if u go and start stretching rubber possible to fit lower offsets such as negatives under there with ease. 19 x 11 +0 offet for starters ;)

Looks tough! What are they? At first, i thought they were drifteks but drifteks dont have those offsets. Bee-r b5? BTW youre on ocau?

Rota P45-R lol. had no complaints on the US forums so thought why not....

$3.4k delivered with tyres mounted/balanced.

Yup! I'm on ocau!

yo!

front: 18/19*9.5+12

rear: 18/19*10.5+12

proof:

as a reference in the pic, they are 19s with, 245/35 tyre front, and the rear is 275/35, you can easily run a 235 or 225 on the front and say a 255 on the rear if you want them stretched (but not crazy stretched lol) :D

edit - i just re-read your first post - to achieve "perfect" fitment it isnt all just about what wheel to run, is a culmination of wheel sizes/tyre sizes/suspension/wheel alignment/body work

F: 18x9.5 +22 with a 255/35 R18

R: 18x10.5 +22 with a 285/35 R18

Note that my rear guards aren't rolled, and I didn't have camber arms in the front at the time. That setup doesn't rub, and I've had that car cornering flat out. You can run a slightly lower offset, but I doubt +15 will fit without stretching a tyre.

11" +10 with 275/30 on the rear of my car standard height, the guards were munching the tyres on bumps and that.

So anything lower then +15 stretched tyres is a must, unless you wanna run some crazy camber or stiff as Fark springs lol

OMG those rotas are HOT

can i ask if you need any mods to run those size rims?

like adjustable camber arms?

thnx

thanks! nope no mods at all. I'm running greddy s-type suspension as well, been dropped about 1-2" not sure....i want to drop it more but i might have driveway issues which i don't want.

Have to roll the rear guards if i want to drop the rear anymore though. No camber wear as such yet too.

    • -9s are discontinued supposedly. But you can still get Nismo R3 turbos which are something like a -7 but subtly different? -7s are also available. HKS GTIII-SS and GTIII-2530 are also available but they're journal bearing MHI turbos.
    • Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.          
    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
