I'm looking at getting a set of the 370 base 18inch rims for track shoes (some road course auto-x stuff) mostly for the 1/4 mile drag. My car is tour/sport with stock height, only sway bars are aftermarket the rest of the suspension is stock. What are some good tire sizes and brands that will work with this setup ? Would this be ok ? 245/45/18-F...275/40/18-R ?? I don't really know, i'm just pulling these numbers out my AZZ...:shakes head:

Thanks for your time and help:tiphat:

i wouldnt want something so small for track use??? sounds like they will perform worse than your street combo??

Bad wheel size or tire size or both ? If it's just the tire size what's the widest tire that would work ? Thanks again.

Will it fit (TEIN Monoflex Coilovers with EDFC included)
 
I'm planning on picking these up in a few weeks. What I have heard is that with the EDFC motors installed there is plastic trimming required in order for the system to fit for the 370Z.

Proabably not but you can always wrap a tshirt around one of the spokes and try to install the wheel and see if it touches... btw those are some thin rims for this car...

Yeah I'm just gonna be using them for the winter. Cuz I don't wanna buy expensive blizzaks for the rays 19s

I wonder how a set of 19x11-7 and 20x12.5 0 would fit.

Hey guys, new to the forum... just picked up a touring/sport 370 with the rays wheels. What is the widest i should go front and back? And what is all the talk about spacers? Would 255/35 and 285/35 fit with out spacers? And when is it necessary to include spacers? Thanks for the help.

nice, just wondering if I need to sell my SSR's or just carry them over to the new Z....decisions decisions

Hey guys im about to change tires for the first time. I want to run 285 rears and 265 fronts. The tires I want are fine for the rears (285/35/19) but the matching tire for the front only comes in a 265/30. Will that smaller aspect ratio look weird in the front? And with those size tires what specers should I run to flush the tires with the fenders? Thanks

will Nismo OEM rear wheels fit at the front? 19"x10.5" +23?

I am thinking to get a square setup :confused: :ugh2:

it will fit but only with camber and a tire stretch. You will most likely rub too if your lowered. Most guys are running 10 +20~25 or so in the front when they are trying to go big like that. Your adding 6.5mm more to the outside making you more aggressive than most people on 10's up front. You can try it but its going to require some work. I hope this helps:tup:
