OB '04 Coupe Premium w/Performance Wheel & Tire
19" wheel fitment
I am going to drop the sedan about 2" (Z Tein S.Tech) and I was going to get some wheels soon afterwards. I am looking at two since I will be painting the black portion to color match IP in the future. Which size tire would you recommend?

MRR GT-5 Specs:
F 19" x 8.5, 35 offset
R 19" x 9.5, 45 offset

R1 Hype:
F 19" x 8, 35 offset
R 19" x 9, 40 offset

Edit: I am going to bring this back, I bought staggered coupe 19" rays.

My specs

2006 sedan
350z Tein H. Tech (-1.5/-1.2 roughly)

Front 19x8 +30
Invo 225/40/19

Rear 19x8.5 +33
Invo 245/40/19

Problem= Rears Rub

Anybody running 235/40/19 F&R

19" wheel width and offset selection are wise fitment for the sedan that will keep you out of trouble with lowered fenders.

Your choice on the style and have fun with that.

The sport look choice I recommend is the R1 Hype. A little plain with that 5 spoke design but strong and correct choice.
To me the "show" MRR GT-5 has bling effect even with painted IP.

I already have a rear camber kit on the way, I am looking for a front kit still.

MRR GT-5 Specs:
F 19" x 8.5, 35 offset

Of the two wheel styles the MMR's have a better offset. I think either way you are going to need spacers to keep them from, looking tucked in.
As far as tires go, If you want to keep the diameters the same go with a 255/35 for the rear and 225/40 for the front.

I decided to go with the R-1 Hype $1,620 with Nitto INVO, is that a good price? Thats what I was quoted by my local shop. Price is mounted and balance, out the door.

Rear: 245/40/19
Revs per mile goes down a bit from oem (215/55/17)

The offset is only 1mm more aggressive on the MRR wheels.

Go buy 30mm spacers.

That was going to be my next question, which size spacers, but I was going to wait until the wheels were on the car and measure.

Whoa, I read this as a coupe. Do not buy 30mm spacers my bad.

What size tires do you plan to run? I'm saying 25mm up front 20mm in the back depending on tire size. You'll need to stretch to run a 30mm. Sorry about that.

I was looking at the front wheels. But yeah 1mm + rear and 6mm front...not really worth the mention on my part.

So wih the 350z Tein H. Tech, the R-1 wheels and the tires mentioned above, will there be any problems?
