Hey guys. This is going to be my first post on this forum. I have my engine out now and am building it even further. I am installing gt3071's, I will be running straight meth injection on 93 octane. Full breather mods, adjustable intake vtc and adjustable exhaust cam gears and 500 cams ect ect ect.

I have been searching google for the past few days to try to figure out what offsets to get for my CCW lm-20's that I'm going to be purchasing as soon as I find out which offsets to get.

I am going to be making lots of power so what I'm going for is function. I'd like to run a set of 315's 30 or 35's on a 18" rim. Not sure whether or not to get 10.5" or 11".

The reason I joined this forum and am posting here is because I saw this topic was brought up 7 days ago with no conclusion (I assume). Please help me out with some advice on rim, tire and offset sizes. It would be greatly appretiated. Thanks in advance. Mike

Thanks for the link man. He really knows what he's talking about with all those rims he's had. I was looking for the link but I guess I didn't look hard enough. I tried all these crazy google searches like: 300zx 11 wheel ect. No luck

What I did manage to find was this walkthrough involving cutting the lower control arm and it does look secure, since he re inforces it. Its just a lot of work. I'm sure I could pull it off but I was hoping there was other ways...

Anyways thanks again for steering in the right direction. Mike

God, I read some of the replies there and the immaturity makes me think I'm in 240 gen. No wonder I never post there...
