please excuse my ignorance on tires and wheels. i just bought a 2016 touring. it came with 18" wheels that i despise. i would like to put 19" wheels on the car. i am only considering using a stock 370 wheels just, want them in 19". is my suspension basically the same on the touring model as other z packages? i am curious if they will fit without any modification? i also like the looks of some of the cars i have seen on here with spacers. at what point do you have to have camber kits that i have heard mentioned?
thanks

Yes,

They will fit just make sure the (offset) are within spec.

Depending on the offsets It may or may not need spacers

Keep the tire size to stock sizes IF you're not going to do anything fancy.

Only if you want to go with a wider wheel that will stick out past outside the fenders. Camber wil tilt top of the wheel, thus fitting it back flush with the fender.Lowering the car wil also have a tendency of cambering the wheels in, so if you decide to lower the car, you might want to go with wider wheels or larger spacers.

Stock 19" 370z wheels will only require an alignment at a regular old shop.

As stated above, camber kits can be used to increase negative camber when you have wide wheels that won't clear the fenders. They can also be used to decrease negative camber on lowered cars that will maintain toe/camber specs and increase tire life and straight line performance/grip.

But again, you won't need them if you're just using a stock wheel and are not lowered. Cheers.
