J Shara Posted June 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted June 2, 2021 Does anyone know or have any info as to the set up that Gordon McSwain is running on his car. Rim and tire size?, width?, Offset? His car was featured at S.E.M.A week where it raced against some other modified 350 z's I think. It has been a trial and error for alot of people to get just the right wheel and tire fitment and look on the S30. In my opinion, the Watanabe RS in gun metal is the best looking rim on these cars, but the offset and back spacing changes the overall look. I was reading on the "post your wheel and tire" forum and one member got some from Japan and said they were 15x8 with 0 offset, but they looked much different from Gordon's car. In my opinion, Gordon's car is perfect, perfect stance and perfect look. The look I want for my Z one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Shara Posted June 2, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted June 2, 2021 (edited) The lip appears much deeper. I'm assuming that these rims are not as wide as Gordon's car Edited June 2, 2021 by J Shara Add text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 2, 2021 Share #4 Posted June 2, 2021 Without seeing a rear or side view, I bet he's running pretty wide and deep dish. Those fender flares are probably installed over cut body panels. Offset it probably not zero if he's running stock struts. Then again, if it's a race car I doubt he's running stock suspension under that car. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyitsrama Posted June 2, 2021 Share #5 Posted June 2, 2021 Maybe ‘Datsun Spirit’ can sort you out, they posted these photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rturbo 930 Posted June 2, 2021 Share #6 Posted June 2, 2021 It'll probably say somewhere in his build thread here: https://forums.nicoclub.com/2009-240z-build-t403961.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
