I snagged a pair of 17x8 +33 (I think) 350Z wheels and slapped some 225/45-17 Ecstas on them. I have Z32 n/a hubs on the rear of my car with stock calipers and SE rotors. Anyways, are they supposed to be this flush?... I didn't think such a shitty offset would be like this. This makes me afraid of some 17x10 +12s haha. Granted, I have no camber and my car is jacked up (pro-kits/gr2).

Like you said, it looks like you have about 1 degree of camber. That will flush out higher offset wheels like that. Plus, running a 225/45 on an 8J isn't exactly stretched on so that will cause it to flush out even more. Good luck fitting 10J +12 on s13 rear. It takes a shitload of pulling, tons of camber, and stretched tire to tuck them under there. If you want a 10J out back on s13 without going widebody, your better off just sticking with a 10J +25, with all of the above except for the crazy pull.

Yeah it's def. the rear wheel. I wasn't planning on a 10, but I just know that some people run them, and I don't see how hah.

This is 9J +17 on rolled fenders with -2.4 degrees camber in the rear and a 215/45/17 stretched on. In the rear, I pulled it about 10mm with a baseball bat since I took those pics. I can now put a 10J +20 with a 225/45/17 or probably even a 235/40/17. If I pulled another 10mm I could get a 10J +12 in there but I'm going to need a torch and a fender roller to do it properly.

z33 wheels are 17x7.5 +33 and 17x8 +30 I think... and I own them...

Flybert. Enough with the wheels man. I'm so sick of seeing that car. Need's more street fighter and less ford dealership.

Yes, the Z33 has a staggered setup. I'm just looking for the G35 wheels to put on my S13. I still have my stock Z33 18" wheels, I don't like them though.
