Message	I took my dad's 19" wheels off his sc300 last night and put them on my TTZ ... they fit fine. I drove all over the frickn place and got no rubbin or anything. When I put my 18x10" wheel+tire next to his 19x10" wheel+tire to compare ... the 19" was actually SMALLER in diameter - shorter in height by about 3/4 inch. Same thing with the 19x9" fronts. His tires were pretty worn though so who knows. My front springs are saggin so much I want to enter my Z in a competition for the saggiest stock springs ever (It looks like I have coilovers in the front lol). So I assume lowering wont cause rubbing with 19" but then again I dont have camber correction so I wonder if the top of the rim coming closer to the inner fender would change things. Anyway I saw this post and had to tell my personal experience: http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=923071 I think the moral of my post is offset is very important. If anyone is interested I'll find out the offset and tire sizes my dad is running.
