06 Sedan 6mt wheels?

My first post!!!

I just purchased an 06 6mt sedan w/premium package. The dealership originally had aftermarket wheels on the car that we did not want worked into the deal. We ended up with coupe wheels instead of sedan wheels so my tires hang outside the rear fender, and I have a 4 inch gap up front. Does anyone have pictures of what my wheels should look like? The dealership is going to order me the correct wheels, I just want to make sure they order me the right ones. Thanks for the help. Heres a pic of what im dealin with.

i say keep em and get a full 350Z suspension, that will get rid of the wheel gap and they wont stick out of the fenders anymore, that was my old setup til i could afford aftermarket wheels, i loved it!

Thanks for the welcome. I plan on getting wheels soon, I just dont care for the offset of the coupe wheels on the sedan. Im willing to put these up for sale with only 300 miles on em.

i posted it in the other thread you made
here's another shot from the side though, to give you an idea of how much lower it will be. The full Z suspension will lower the car 1" all the way around.

I diddn't know the other thread posted, my power went off as i was hitting submit... You car looks good on the coupe wheels. That really closed up the gap up front for a 1" drop. I measured over 3 1/2" from my tire to fender.

The front fender is higher than the rear, thats where you get the off road suspension look up front.

that was my car over a year ago, looks much much different now. I did love that look at the time though. The front tire gap is rediculous from the factory, putting the Z springs on my car was the best $100 i had ever spent on it.

i agree, the coupe wheels look better. My only problem is the offset. If i drop it a lil bit it looks like the rear will rub. It does look like a 4x4 from the factory.

You shouldnt have a problem with rubbing. I only had rubbing problems with 2 people in the back (both over 180lbs) with the 245/45/18 tires, you can either roll the rear fenders a little bit or switch to a 245/40 in the back, or do a 225/45 in the back to match the front, that way you can rotate the tires.

+1 on the 350z springs...

Go to a Z meet if you get the chance...someone will always need to get rid of something from their garage after putting in aftermarket upgrades..... That's how I found mine....
