| Yeah, I did. :) So I already had my 285/30/18's on the rear of my Z on the Yoko AVS 18x9.5 +38 and it fits PERFECT. The fronts I have 255/35/18 on the 18x8.5 +45.... now thinking from previous Z's, this setup should work, or at the very least work with a 5mm spacer. Well, I forgot that my Stoptech 350z 2pc rotor with the "custom" adaptor that the previous owner made (I believe with the help of Woody75) makes the front have to run a 5mm spacer already (with my old Gewalt wheels +38mm offset, this making it it a +33 offset on the front). Well +45 is simply too high for this brake setup (I mean it's probably 15-20mm off) so I think what I'm going to do is get the 20mm Ichiba spacers (bolt to the hub, then the wheel bolts to the spacer) unless anyone has any other ideas. I tried putting both 5mm front spacers on one side just to see how much more I need to go and it's about double that to clear the caliper. (i.e. 20mm???) I really didn't expect this problem. Thanks in advance.
