Are all the 18 inch 350Z rims the same? 18x8 for the front and 18x18.5 for the rear... when I buy tires should i get the ones that match the factory tire size... 225/45/18 for the fronts and 245/45/18 for the rears.. please let me know.. cause I was just bout to buy some 245/40/18 tires...

 

Depends on what model. On the Track wheels, its 18x8 for the front & 18x8.5 in the rear but other wheels are 18x8 both front & rear.

 

I'm guessing since i'm lowered on s-tech springs... i should get a 225 series tires instead of 245?

I heard i should get 225/45/18

need to make sure I don't rub...

 

will a 225/40/18 work on some 350Z rims?

Most either get 235/40/18 or 225/45/18... thanks!

 

You should be able to with no problem. The only thing is that you tires may looks streched.

 

i've got 245/40/18 on all 4 corners dropped on h=tech' and have to problem with rubbing, azenis in front, and 555r's in the rear

 

That looks pretty good!!!

245-40-18 is the way to go.

 

Does anyone have 350Z wheels on a 4th gen. If so pics?

They look a lot like the 6th gen SE OEM wheels, I guess the only difference is the width.

 

And offset. And the ability to clear bbk w/ no spacers. ie...

 

I'm digging my 6th gens

 

im lookin at a set of 350z wheels with oem tires on my local craigslist. i assume they fit on my 95max because both have a 5 lug pattern. Do you think ill need to lower my car or will they look fine without it being lowered since they are 18s

 

i didnt know 350z rims came in 8.5 width.

 

well here they are. unfortinuately they dont fit flat against my rotors...theres a stupid metal cap sticking out. did anyone else notice this? (95 GLE Max) How did you deal with it? this will not do it may screw up my rotors/axel and a whole lot more

 

Iin more detail... my rotors look like the ones on this site..with the thing sticking out the middle of them
http://www.motorvate.ca/mvp.php/300

that prevents my wheels to go flat against the rotor and there is a gap between the wheel and rotor when its fully tightened (no way that flys). So, do i need new rotors? can i take that thing out?

 

i easilly fixed that problem by removing the pastic spacers. i couldn't see them in the dark when i first attempted to put the wheels on. these pieces of crap have been causing my stearing wheel to shake at high speeds even on the stock 15's. What kind of a moron would put plastic between a wheel and a rotor?

 

6th gen wheels look better

 

He wasn't asking for an opinion as to which wheels look better, please stay on topic.

 

Haha yeah i know... this thread is to help me choose some tires for the 350Z rims that I ALREADY HAVE... but thanks for everyone's opinion on the rims but i'm still lookin for the answer on the tires... i'm just a little worried if the tires will rub or not since i'm lowered on tein s-tech springs... so i'm deciding if i should go 235/40/18 or 225/45/18.. i'm leaning towards the 235/40/18 since people have said it will look better and not stretched..

 

i also have 350s rims and my car is lowered like 2inches plus im gonna get 225 40 18 what the last owner had he said it was alil bumpy n stuff and then im gonna see how it goes from there

 

How much of a drop is that? I want to put 245/40/18 tires on G35 rims (same size and offset as 350Z rims) on my 2003 which is lowered 2" on Ksport coilovers. I have seen others warn about rubbing with this wheel/tire combination. Are you even close to rubbing?
