anyone running with zero offset wheels? im looking at some wheels from a 240Z 14x7 with zero offset, and im wondering how they would look? do they stick out too much on a stock lowered suspension?

if anyone has pics please post them

thanks

acutally i donno...but the 14x7 is gonna be slightly awkward on a car like yours...that sounds more like AE86 style wheels to me

Toahk - are you sure those are 0 offset? I've got some an extra pair of dori dori rims with 15X6.5 +5 offset and they stick out a bit.

Oh well your car looks really good. I like the red rims with the gunmetal gray color and the black lip. There are a few pignose front cars that I like and I just added yours to my list.

i'd use the zero offset. but my car's only for drifting and has -3 camber all around. but 14's are too small for 240's. those wheels are for hachi's man

Yeah says the offset on the backside of the rim, thats with a 195/60 tire in the rear, im running 205/50's up front and the stick out a bit. Also the rear camber is quite negative, where the front is pretty close to zero. I just got ruca's though and am going to put 205/55 all around, it will stick out a bit more with less neg camber.

Thanks for the compliments too, I wasn't sure of the red mesh at first but it grows on you fast. All my buddies seem to like it, so its here to stay for a while.
