You should be fine/ + 25 offset front is 1/8" more tucked in than black ~Z~ pictured further back on this page @+22 offset front.
Now: the tire brand play's a big role in this- you're probably aware the different manufacturers can vary 1-2" on section and tread with... But sounds like you picked a good fit.

I just bought my 370z and I'm prepping for winter in NJ. I found winter tires for cheap from an outside source and I'm thinking of purchasing but not before I know they will fit. I will be purchasing a separate set of winter wheels to go along with them.

My Z is a 2010 Z roadster with Touring and Sport Packages, manufactured 4/10. VIN is JN1AZ4FHOAM303744.

Will these wheels fit? Tire Rack suggested them, but I don't want to have them mess this up for me.

Hey guys, I don't really know much about wheels.. I told myself when I got my car that I was just gonna keep stock but now I saw this classmate's car with Work Gnosis cv202 and I WANT THEM SO BAD!!! Anyway.. Is there any way that I can get them without any spacers and still clear my akebono brake calipers??

And do I have to buy new tires or can I just use the same ones I have on my sport rays?? Im looking for 19 " wheels btw! Thanks guys

Hello! Yes, all you need to do is order the correct "disk face" size and they will clear your Akebono no problem.

As far is the tires go, it is recommend to get new tires since your new setup will more than likely be a bit wider than your stock setup.

We can get these for you, special order. Custom offsets by 1mm increments.

No, not that brand. Work, SSR, Rays, Advan, Enkei, Weds, Super Star

usually I've helping people out in here but I am in need of answers or suggestions for once.

been kicking around a drag radial setup for awhile now just at the track. I have a few ideas but some i'm not sure whats the best way or if it's even possible. been having trouble piecing together some setup options.

1. get a set of regular sport ray rears 19" to match and some 305/35 mickey Thompson DR's

2. go with 18" wheels and some thicker meat on the rears for traction. my issue is I really can't tell which 18's will clear the rear sport brake calipers.
also wheel width would obviously be 10" or wider to get all the traction possible for the best 60' times I can get.

any thoughts would be appreciated especially on what 18" wheels can clear the calipers without having to shave them or modify them.

Don't be scared to try the 265/40/18's MT drag radials,,,,most important thing is to have camber near 0 and wheels tucked underneath to get more weight on tires// wider isn't necessarily better traction....sub 7 second cars running on 275 drag radials....may end up running a tad positive rear camber:due to wheels clambering in on launch... More power will make it more difficult on these cars...mine went 1.95 60' with stock open diff & heated 275/40/18 goodyear street radials.

yea dropping out the camber will help but in the end I enjoy the fact that I drive me car to the strip, have some fun, and can go destroy corners the whole way home. i'm just looking for a little extra traction to move myself back up towards the top 5 NA ET's. technically I can take my car as is to florida and probably get my spot back lol

i'm planning on either doing the 305 TM;s on the sport rays or finding 18" wheels that clear and going 295-315 DR's on the rear and see what happens lol

my car with what it has now (w/ mufflers on) and PSS's (no heat/burn out) cut a 1.950 60' in my PB run
