Fronts are 19x8.5 29mm offset
Rears are 19x9.5 34mm offset

Would this fit a 370z?

Thanks
those aren't really ideal.

the 19" rays have a 9 up front with a +47 offset and a 10" in the rear with a 30m

those offsets will have the FRONT wheel stick out an extra 12mm (which is a bit more aggressive than stock, but not significantly, and if you were to lower your car, the wheel would still look really tucked in). the REAR will look 10mm MORE tucked in, so right there you are gonna be really sunk in looking.

the ideal offsets people seem to be running are:
Front: 9.5 with a +22mm
Rear: 10.5 with a +12mm

if you want to maintain the same OUTER stance, ie how 'flush' or 'sunk' the wheel looks compared to the fender, these sizes/offsets will have the same outer stance

Front: 11.0" + 41mm
Front: 10.5" +35mm
Front: 10" +28mm
Front: 9.5" +22mm
Front: 9" +16mm
Front: 8.5" +9mm
Front: 8.0" +3mm

Rear: 12" +31mm
Rear: 11.5" +25mm
Rear: 11" +18mm
Rear: 10.5" +22mm
Rear: 10" + 6mm
Rear: 9.5" -1mm
Rear: 9.0" -7mm
