Just picked these up for the Max!

So I was searching on CL for some wheels and found these for $175. Im not sure if they are the touring wheels or not, but they are 18s. Im planning on getting 2" drop Ksports and either AGX or GR2s so Im curious as to what size tires I should get? We dont get too much snow here and the roads as far as potholes and major bumps are not bad so. Or suspension wise if you guys have some different inputs let me know! Sorry if the picture is HUGE...

Those are either 6th gen or 350Z wheels. They look good! Should look nice on the car.

Oh and BTW, don't lower the car on GR2's.

I have been lowered on Gr2's for 2 years now, and I have not had a problem at all. For 200 bucks, they ride pretty well.

They're considered stock replacement struts, not performance struts.

Those rims are ok to me but I think the 6th gen (07-08) 18" will look great..IMO I don't think I seen it in the 4th gen pic threads..

You don't think those will rub on turns or anything on a 2" drop?
I just wanna make sure I don't feel like replacing tires often, you feel me?

i dont know how the wheel well compares to that of a 5th gen, but i had absolutely no problems when i ran that size...only time i rolled the fenders on my 5th gen was when i put 265/30/19 tires on it...so i'm 99% confident you wont have any rubbing issues
