Default 20x11 wheels

So I found a set of wheels for 350z with 20x9.5 and 20x11 all with 15 offset. I wonder if they'll stick too far out?

Don't want to pull the fenders .shavings and rolling is the only thing I would do.How about the 9.5" wide? Would they stick out of front and rear?

For the 11's you can run rear upper control arms to add alittle camber, I have a friend with 19x11 +/-0 under stock body and all it took was Studio RUCAs and toe links

Yeah that's 19's though.. He's talkin' 20's.. Will prolly need a lot more work since they're a larger wheel. Especially if he's wanting to go real low.

I don't mind some camber but not fan of too much camber. Just a little more camber than this is fine with me.

I was a bit lower than that when I was on my last set of wheels and I was running -4.6 in the rear.

Like I said though.. 20's are already max size you ever wanna go on a GS and depending on how low you wanna go if you wanna tuck rim you may have to do some crucial QP work. I know with my new wheels they're 19x11 +23 and i'm going to have to do a slight pull to get them to tuck in unless I wanna run like -6.5 camber, then I can tuck them without pulling, but I don't wanna run that much so a pull it is for me.

The best person to ask will be Yakuza_GS, he's the **** on fitment etc...

I think the lowest I would go is same as that picture. Not going to lower it too much. They do have option for 18s also but I think 18s are too small.they don't have 19s for that type of wheel so I guess there is no choice. Any I dea if 20x9.5 15 offset would fit?

I know he is talking 20's (I actually havedo 20's into thethe rear ofto my GS and 19's in the front ) and in comparison to the pick that ride height shouldn't be to hard to achieve. Also to reduce some negative camber you can run the stock camber adjustment at a positive setting and then use a RUCAs and toe to clear the fender.
