Question: Will the brakes on the sport model be a fit problem if I choose to go down to 18" tires? Sorry if this has been asked before. |

Clears the brakes think you need to pay attention to offset. I got a set of aftermarket 18s for winters and they just clear the brakes. No rubbing.
I know base 18s clear for sure. Last edited by McFly420; 01-10-2018 at 01:39 PM. |

You can see the red brake calipers of the sport brakes in the picture.

I had the same question, then I found out that in Australia, the 370z with sport package have 18" wheels on them. Hope this helps.

The z is pretty awesome. Handles like a top. It's probably part in due to the tires I got. Some Toyo studded tires I don't remember the sub name . One thing I do miss is above 4500 rpm. The LSD really comes into play in the snow. Is fun. Wasn't planning on wintering it. But my SUV (Xterra) has begun to break down and I can't afford it fix all the little issues being a student ATM. Maybe once 8 start working I'll actually park the Z and fix the X for winters. Sent from my SM-N950W using Tapatalk |
