As the subject states, I'm going to buy some MB Battle wheels for my Z32 ('96, N/A, 2+0). Currently, I only have PowerTrix Coilovers - not lowered, stock wheels.

The wheels are 17x9.5 +15 Offset, with 225/45/17 tires. For $700, with tires. Or $600 without 'em.

My question is, would these fit nicely? I've done some research but mostly only found +25 offset MB's on Z32's. Fender rolling /is/ and option, if necessary.

Thanks in advance.

un-lowered you can fit a lot of stuff lol. As for those wheels/sizes if you want to lower the car you will need a fender roll in the rear but otherwise will be good. If you ever go with a wider tire which I would suggest like a 245-255 depending on height you may need to camber in some as well.

IMO MB Battles are very attractive wheels, and should look nice and aggressive on your z32 especially if lowered.

Also, WELCOME to NICO!!
Hope you stick around, and be sure to post up some pictures of your Z!!

I have wanted a set in bronze 18x9.5 +15 for a while now as a second set of wheels for the Z.

A second set to beat up, or just a second set in general?

That would look nice, but your Z is just so perfect with those Meister's...
