18 X 8.5 +25 offset (Front) flat face
18 X 9.5 +30 offset (Rear) curved face

They are also made in 19" diameter as well but would not try to put them on a Z32.

Fitment: The front 18 X 8.5 +25 offset (flat face) fits perfectly and has all types of room for all Big brake kits. I ran 245-35-18. 245-40s and 255-35s will fit as well

The Rear 18 X 9.5 +30 offset (curved face) works but with a 275 or 285-35-18 they rub the fenders pretty bad to the point that they start cutting into the tire. I had to roll the fenders to the max and have a -3 degrees of camber adjustment to prevent them from rubbing. Its a great set up for auto cross or road racing but not recommended for street use do to inner tire wear from the -3 degrees of camber.

They are variables that may help them to fit such as more negative camber, a smaller tire (255 or 265) but would give the stretched look on the rim and ride height depending on what type of suspension you have or plan to use.

Volk does list I believe a +37 off set on the 18 X 9.5 but good luck getting them any time soon. Special orders take 6-8 months and the last time I checked, Nissan Motorsports didn't even have the part number to order them. If you can source them from Volk directly, I would try that.

I have test fitted the 18 X 9.5 +30 offset (curved face) and they do bolt up but I have not road or race tested if they will rub.

Hope this helps.
