I've driven a 4th gen with 6th gen wheels (the 350Z 18"s), and they rubbed just a bit. The dude's an Orger from NY.....

I've got a set on my car right now and I love them. I'm on the stock SE springs and have the larger 6th Gen rubber (245/45/18). I have no rubbing at all.
If you have a different setup and have rubbing probs when the wheels are fully turned, our cars have adjustable steering stops to take care of it.

You should try and get a set of the 18" forged 350Z wheels that come on the track version of the 350Z. At least I think it's the track version. Or wait until next year when the 350Z has an anniversary edition with 18" 5 spoke wheels.

Those are nice looking.
Are they really made by Nissan?
They have the Nissan logo? I cannot tell.

I have the 350z 18'' on my 4th gen and as far as I'm concern they look great. I replaced the tires with Falken zeis 245/40/18...no rubbing and theride is even better than the bridestone. Check out my home page and tell me what you fellas think.

Rays wheels are sick!

The ray wheels were the ones I was trying to post. The best thing about them is that they are 17.5-18 lbs a piece which is pretty light for 18" wheels. However you would need to get 4 front wheels because the rear from the 350Z are 18x9.5
