Thanks in advance.
I really wish I could answer that question but I'm a tire noob ! The offset on mine is 30.

Well that's a starting point...I'll do some measurements once mine finally comes in. I've always run custom 3 piece wheels in the past which offer infinite adjustments but I'd prefer to run a one piece wheel on the BR-Z.

Thanks for the reply.

How do you find the ride and handling on the upgraded rims and tires? They really look quite substantial compared to stock.

It runs pretty smooth but the only bad thing is that where I live there is ALWAYS construction going on with the roads. Other than that it runs smooth. However sometimes it does feel a little bumpy.

Your offset should be +45 with those 8.5" wide wheels. Without a drop you would be poking big time with a +30. Anyway, looks great!
