minimum offset for GT


I already searched the forums and could't find the answer.

I'm looking for different wheels. My current wheels have an offset of 40, while the '94-'04 Mustangs have 28 offset. That's not a huge difference, bringing the wheels 12mm outboard. I doubt they'll rub on the fenders.

The SN95 wheels are identical bolt pattern and offset to many Nissans/Infinitis, RX8s, Evos, etc.

Can I run 19x8/19x8.5 Infiniti G35 wheels with offset of 30 and 33?
eBay Motors: 19" OEM Infiniti G35 Wheels 350Z Maxima Nissan Rays 07 (item 120200529237 end time Dec-26-07 15:31:34 PST)

What is the lowest offset I can run? Anyone have pics of other OE wheels on S197s?

My front 20x8.5 Foose Wheels have a offset of 34mm

Why on earth do you want to run Infinti Wheels on a Mustang? Why not just buy a aftermarket wheel that look like those?

Because I can get Rays Forged Wheels that just so happen to come on a 350z for dirt cheap with tires. Also my brother has some connections and buddies who will do favors for him or find wheels for him. For example right now I have 20" BBS RXs with brand new Pirellis in my garage that I found on a BMW for sale. Basically he finds rare or expensive wheels and buys them, and then either refinishes them or just sells them.

I can understand the whole wanting to save money thing but running a Infiniti or Nissan Wheel or any import wheel on a Mustang just seems a bit odd is all. Different strokes for different folks.

This is my car with the +24 offset American Muscle bullets. With the 255's they are at the edge of being redneck. The problem was that with those rims, I was limited to 255's, anything wider would have been completely backwoods.

disregard the naked tire picture, that was just eye candy for me to look at until they arrived.

No you didnt get the point. There wouldn't be the other manufactures logos on them. Like the Rays wheels on a 350z are lightweight and very strong because they are forged. Tons of people now a days are buying cars and instantly throwing ugly ass huge chrome rims on them, and since they live in a shitty apartment and can't store their oem wheels, I just buy them from them.

Alot of cars now are coming with some nice aftermarket wheels, like evos come with O.Z.s. Hell even some toyota sedans are coming with O.Z. superlegras.
