SSR Reverse mesh offset question

[redwingz]

Hey,

Does anyone know if SSR reverse mesh 16x7 and 16x8 with a +26 offset will fit on a 240Z without flares or coilovers? Acceptable range is supposedly 0- +15 right? Thanks for any help.

I am not sure on the SSR wheels, but the 0- +15 is correct for offset for a Z. Anything more positive for a Z and you might want to get spacers to compensate for it. Personally, the dish on 0- +3 mm wheels looks great. Good luck with the wheels. Ask some of the guys that have the mesh wheels what there size and offsets are. I am sure someone here is running SSR mesh wheels.

From the conversations I've had, on a 16X7 wheel with unflared fenders, a +15 is best. Willing to bet a +26 WILL hit the strut towers/springs

Hi Victor. What would the best off set be for a 14 by 7.5J or 14 by 7J be? I have asked this so many times, but have never really gotten a straight answer. Is 0- +3 okay for both sizes? Thanks

Thanks for the response..v12horse, I am new to this forum, is there an easy way to search which guys are running ssr mesh wheels, or do you know who?

Ben, I'm not sure. But If those crazy Konig Rewinds fit at 14 X 7 -9, Then, a 14 X 7.5 +3 should work. The hazy part to me is how critical is the backspacing. Know for a fact that 14X7 is a sure fit in the range -5 ~ +12

Well, the Konig's "fit", but are not 100% ideal in that -9 configuration. You won't get a 70 series tire in the wheelwell. You need to run 65 or 60 series tires to keep the tires off the fender lip. (from what I've been told by folks using them, mine are still in the boxes)
