Yeah, I've read that 18s are the smallest diameter wheel o fit over the Akebonos. I'm still trying to find a cheap pair of 18x10s. I have my eyes on some Saleen wheels.

I'm thinking about getting some 18 inch 350z wheels for cheap to put some radials on. Also on Thursday there are a bunch of us meeting up in Brandon before the track and were gonna head down there together. Let me know if you wanna join.

I don't off work in Clearwater until 5, so I usually don't make it down there until 630-7.

I'd look at some used 18" 350Z wheels as well, but they are too narrow.

I tried on some stock G35 17s and they barely didn't fit. It looks like 17s with the right design and offset should fit. I checked Discount Tire and they list a couple 17s that fit. I'm guessing that they'll allow a return if it turns out they don't fit.

17s will allow MT 370s to use Mickey Thompson ET Streets or drag radials with more sidewall.

A 255 or 275 drag radial should be fine for a 300 whp n/a car.

You wil have more than that with gas

I had 265/40/18 BFG drag radials on my 350whp G35 using the stock 18"x8" wheels and the the best I could manage was a 1.90 60'. Too much tire for a narrow wheel...I was still spinning them. That's why I'm looking for a pair of 18"x10" wheels now. I'll need all of the 275mm drag radials this time

Right slip is with a 50 shot and left is without. We had some problems getting the nitrous to spray correctly so it's nowhere near where is will be soon. We will try again next week.

I'm looking to start taking my Z back to the track. But I need to change my stock tire. What brand and size would people suggest? Also to they need to be streetable tires. Z is also my daily driver.

Nismo are 19" x 9.5" (front) and 19" x 10.5" (rear). Stock Nismo tires are 245/40YR19 (front) and 285/35YR19 (rear) Yokohama ADVAN Sport. I have heard some people run 305 on stock tires. But it slows the car down, right? but it looks like 305/30R19 are the only re-11s that are wider than the stock rears.

Also if I decided to run RE-11's 305/30R19 rear, would 255/35R19 work in the front? and yes I'm tire stupid..... lol

And how much should I expect the tire to effect the 1/4 mile time?
