You'll be happier with the +22 after trimming the bracket

Got some fresh pics of that setup? Always looking for pics of various Work sets.

Anyone know if those Works have the same concavity in the +22 & +32? It lists both as Ultra Deep Concave, and if they do have the same concavity the OP could run a 285 back there w/ the +32s, maybe even a 295 since all Vizard had to do was a bracket shave.

I have really fallen in love with the Work CR Kiwamis for my 6mt sedan, I am lowered on eibachs and currently have the stock sport wheels with 20mm rear and 25mm front spacers.

Any idea what offsets and tire size I can run to stay within similar or maybe slightly more aggresive specs? Looking at the 19s

Here's all the Emotion lineup, the new T7Rs are a sweet set too!

For an aggressive stagger I'd run 9.5 +38 on 245/40s in front and 10.5 +32 on 255/40s in back. This would give you a deep concave front and an ultra deep concave back. You should have adequate brake clearance but you still must confirm this when ordering since you have the big Sport calipers.

You are the man, thanks. I'll look into the clearance and post some pics hopefully soon 😉

I asked this question when I was wheel shopping and was told the face is the same regardless of offset. A +12, +22, and +32 UDC will have the same concavity.

If that's the case I'd opt for the +32, that way you won't be locked into such a tight window for tire sizing, but that's me

I have some pics I took with my phone nothing fancy. Installing my Akebono's tomorrow so don't mind my weak calipers
So do you think I need to get an alignment? Are these enough or do you want like a pic from the front of each? I'm sure someone from my car club will get some better pics sooner or later

2012 G37x Sedan - Stance SC5 20's - Staggered Setup - 8.5 +20 245/35/20 and 10 +25 285/30/25 lowered on Swift springs. Do you guys see any issues with this? Dealer thought might have to roll the rear fender because of the 285.

The fronts are fine but cutting it close, maybe a fender roll or a bit of negative camber needed; the rears will give you trouble. Very aggressive fitment that would require at least a fender pull and a few degrees of camber. The rear fenders are already rolled flat from the factory.


For reference, the stock wheels are 17x7.5 +45 all around (for AWD). The rears, with the 20x10 +25, will be 51mm (2 inches) more outward.

Hello, i was just wondering if a 20x9 and 20x10.5 both have a +35 offset would work on a coupe with sport brakes? I was thinking of putting 245/35 on front and 275 or 285/30 on rear would that work?
Thanks
