I'm running 9.5 with +20 on front and 10.5 +7 on the rears. Front only rubs on VERY large bumps on the fender liner. Rear clear fine. Depends on how much camber you are running on whether the +12 would fit up front but definitely +12 on the rear.

Ok. So most likely 22 on the front. Do you have a spacer on the rear?

5mm. the wheels are +12 so with a 5mm spacer the effective offset is +7.

So I'm switching from the base (non-sport) tire/wheels 225/50/18 245/40?/18 to the sport rays w/ hankooks off of ishmaelz. The specs were 245/40/19 an 295/30/19.

I was wondering if I can just simply switch them without having to worry about spacers, otherwise, I might just have to buy 20mm for both the rear and front.

Any suggestions/opinions?

Of course they will fit. There is no difference between clearance from sport and base. Just wheels themself. 20mm Spacers will make it flush to the fender but otherwise there is no reason to have em at all. Hell, even the base 18's clear the Akebono sport brakes without spacers.

say I didn't get the wheels from ishmael, but I decided to go for a higher rim size..
What I'm currently looking at is this:
20x9.5 +22 / 20x10.5 +25 with either

255/35/20F 285/30/20R

or

255/30/20F 305/25/20R

I think that I'm gonna have some slight rubbing issues on the front. As for the back, I'm thinking it should be fine.

run 265 front.
you may end up getting a 5-10mm spacer for the rear.

Will Enkei NT03+M fit our Z? I haven't seen any 370z with them. Sorry I have little knowledge about wheels and tires. The biggest size they run are 18's.

A friend has a 350 and he wants to buy rims and tires. He wants all the same size tires so he can rotate them. I think he wants all of the rims with the same offset and put spacers in the rear so they're not tucked under. Something like 18x9 front and rear with stock height.

Check the My350z.com forum. Offsets on the 370 to the 350 are completely different. Most guys on here won't be able to inform your friend.
