Are you looking to run stock diameter or shorter?

Recommendation by myself,would be to lower your car & get an idea of where you gonna set your camber (probably more negative than spec) then you can measure up for tire sizes:most likely gonna be shorter than oem & some stretch on the fronts....hopefully others will chime in on this one;as the front wheels are very aggressive.

Dutchieee,
As Winter approaches,,,you may want to install all-season rubber on your Z; especially if it's a daily driver...just a thought. Sizes are limited with these though.

Yeah, it's typically what I run on all of the Nissan's I've owned (S14, R32, current) and I've never had an issue with camber wear as long as the toe/caster settings are setup for it. I live 40 min from the Nurburgring and Spa and even when cruising on the autobahn the car handles superb at continuous triple digit speeds.

lot of folks dont want to run negative camber, but it actually helps for people that aren't just mindless straight line focused, and it doesn't kill your tires if, like Northstyle said, your toe is set correctly (close to zero)
and, you know, if you don't daily drive your Z, then who cares |
