Default RIM experts PLZ help!! axis racing 20x10 +25mm & 20x8.5 +20 mm

axis racing 20x10 + 25mm & 20x8.5 +20mm and will clear BBK

can i put 285/30/20's in the back and 245/35/20's in the front?

This setup is for a 350z, so its a bolt on,
But my main question is I wanna put 285/30/20's instead of 275/30/20's
does the offset affect the tire size i can use? i don't want it to rub

can i put 285's?

275s? You're going to rub like mad. You need to get some serious stretch to fit these wheels on. We're talking like 235's

there is no way im going less than 275's in the back bro,
cause i have that on my current setup 19's,19x9.5 & 19x8.5 +35 offset and it clears bbk 275/30/19 & 245/35/19



but im going 20's... and these are great rims

how can a 350z pull off a 285/30/20 rear on a 20+ offset 20 inch rim and a GS can't???????????

so basically its the offset thats killing it? 35+ to a 20+ is very little no? its not like putting on a 15mm spacer? the tire shifts out more...
Whats the problem? i measured my current 19's, i figure... add +1 inch up for 20'' from 19''
and i have currently 275/30/19's so i see how it sits in the fender,,, so 275/30/20 should be more or less the same tire just 1'' up,

please can some1 help me, i wanna buy these rims...

BBK has nothing to do with offset BTW. It has everything to do with what disk the rims are. G35's and Z's can accept a MUCH lower offset then a GS do to there body style and fenders. You will need a serious fender pull to fit 285's on 20's with a 20 offset. Try to fit them and see what i'm saying. Most VIPer's have 20 offset in 19's with stretched tires so it clears. 20's is unreal especially with 285's

This is the size you should get then and run 275/30/20 in the rear. As far as BBK fitment, check with the seller or even manufacturer. It comes down to disk type and spoke design, not offset.

That's what you need. Again BBK fitment has nothing to do with offset, it has everything to do with disk/spoke type.

As others have said, This setup will rub whether you put 275s or 285s.

No idea with BBK on this setup. 285s should work with this rear setup, though.

k, here's the deal, i checked, and no i can't get those offsets,
i compared my car lastnite to my neighbours 06 350z, and its a huge difference, lol,

anyways, im getting the more conservative setting of +45 rear and +35 front, but they don't know if it clears the BBK, so a 3mm & 5mm spacer is coming with it just incase

in my current setup the rims are clearing the Supra TT brakes by a hair pin

we'll C, the rims are getting shipped monday,
275/30/20 Rear, 245/35/20 front cause the car is getting slammed, *still, i might need to slightly pull my fenders in the rear depending on how low, but we'll see

and its going to be Falken 452 or Toyo Proxy T1R,

4.5 inch LIP
most likely falken cause its cheaper, but in the rattings its slightly better than Toyo's...

any feedback on the falken 452's b4 i order???
thanx,
