| There are two schools of thought on wheels. One school thinks that the face of the wheel should be as close to a line dropped from the top of the fender as possible. This gives you a show car look but you've got the added problems of suspension travel. This school tends to run very low offsets placing the wheel face further out than stock. The other school thinks it's a good idea to stay more stock-ish. If you want an idea of how far out a 18x8.5+35 wheel will sit, swap your TT rears to the front (as they're 16x8.5+35). I run TT rear wheels all the way around. To get a sense for what a 18x9.5+35mm looks like just immagine your stock rear TT wheel sitting about a 1/2" further out. For reference, the tire rack suggests the following offsets for Enkei RPF1's. F: 17x8.5+30
R: 17x9.5+38 F: 18x8.5+30
R: 18x9.5+45 -or- 18x9.5+38
"The 300ZX Turbo is a dance; it's a song; it's rolling, roaring automotive art. There is no color that doesn't suit it. There is no mood-lifting chemical substance it can't replace." - Automobile Magazine
