i saw the anniversary 350 today at nissan WOW, awsome car and those wheels are SICK, but not sure how they would look on a max, a little to crazy looking.

I have the 18x8 350Z touring wheels on my 02. The 245-45's rub in the back if I go over a good bump (lowered with Eibach's). I only use 225-45's now. You can get pretty good deals on the Z wheels. Hope this helps.

Get the G35C rims. The 245s on the rear might rub a little depending on the drop.

I forgot about those. Im not sure if they are 350z specific as far as Nismo goes, but they are sweet lookin. We have a 350z "Nismo tuned" here at one of our dealerships and those wheels on it are nice.

for a little more sidewall on the tires so you get a better ride. Its a little harsh at times with the tires I got. I might have to raise the car a little if I get that size, yes, but with coilovers it's not a problem!

NO, they will not rub if no drop is done. But i wouldnt reccomend putting them on. They will make your car look like a truck. Check out my cardomain page. The page progresses through my modifications I have done and my first setup was 18" chrome rims on 245/45/18 tires. The ride was nice but check out the pics. But, no they will not rub. I also had that size when I put on the coilovers and was able to drop it even a little without rubbing, but not much.

G35 wheels no doubt. Look killer on Irish's max. 350z wheels have fat spokes and im not feelin the holes on the spokes. Another alternative is the 04 maxima wheels i think they look hot.

Since the wheels weigh 50lbs each, the handling will be very sloppy. You don't want the G35 wheels. They are ugly.

How much do the G35 rims weigh.....I got a set and id like to know how much wieght im gonna gain/lose when i put them on. If i had a scale id weigh them but i dont.... you can find 350z rims cheaper but the G35 18s are dope.

Old thread new feedback huh? Well I don't have either but I've seen both sets of the wheels pulled off well... I wouldn't mind seeing some new pics of some stock wheel combos though now since the thread was started 4 years ago I'm sure people got some new tricks up their sleeves... I do like the older G35's though... Any new stock setups out there? Gonna need a winter setup eventually...
