check out my new kicks

well they aren't really new but they are new to me. i picked them up from a guy over on the my350z forums. they have 235/40/18 nitto 555's on the front and 245/45/18 pirelli p6000's on the rear. im changing to 245/40/18's in the rear and i think im going to go with 555's or the new hankook tire thats comparable to the azenis rt615. they are 18x8 in the front and 18x8.5 in the rear and i believe they have offsets of +30f and +33r.

Looks great. You're the first sedan I've seen with Z wheels.

Are you sure about the offsets? With +33 in the rear I would think you would rub.

they would rub if the tires were even a millimeter wider. i am running some camber but not that much and im going to go with 245/40's instead of 245/45's. but they do clear and im pretty sure about the offsets. most people are scared to try anything lower than +38's they just get scary close. i might clear by about 1 or 2 peices of paper right now.

I've heard of people running +35 successfully with camber within specs. My guess is if you correct your negative camber you may rub. You can roll or cut the little inner lip if you need to. Whatever the case you can't beat the look! How's the ride?

Looks great! Which 350 wheels are those? I am wheel shopping and have been going back and forth between 18” and 19”. After seeing your car, I can see that 18s look just fine.

they are the 350z track edition wheels. they are forged rays engineering wheels and aren't that cheap. they do come very close to the fender and i am lowered a litle bit with a little camber. all i can do is suggest that if you run them use a 245/40/18 in the rear. in the pics i have 245/45/18's on and they are a bit too big.
