That is more suitable yes. 265/35-305/30, plenty of tire selections.

A 325 would be a bit too large imo for the rear. Plus overkill unless you plan on extra power.

Go big or go home.

Thanks for the help. I just realized the F14s don't come in 10.5s, so it looks like I'll be going with an 11 in the back. Am I accounting for offset properly with these specs:

19x9.5 +25 ; 265/35
19x11 +18 ; 305/30

I will be lowered on Tein Springs at the same time (.9" drop front, .75' rear); will the above offsets still work? Trying to take advantage of this Black Friday sale and make sure I have everything lined up. Thanks.

a 325 will fit a 11" fine. But again. diminishing returns.

It would be wise to then step up to a 285/35 front. Without understanding your usage for larger tires (aesthetics/ grip?) You can go the stretched route.

OptionZero would be the guy to talk to there.

What brand/style tires are you looking at wrapping your wheels with & are you getting supporting suspension parts to keep alignment within Factory specs?
Especially the camber,,,example (-1.0*F & -1.5*R) otherwise you may end up with (-1.5F* & -2.5*R)just a thought.
Another is; do you like a flat,bulgy,or stretched tire fitment on Wheels?
Many options available to you when ordering custom fit offsets.
Be sure & read through the [Official 370z wheel/tire fitment guide] pics/specs only....this thread is a good read before purchasing & ensure you’ll achieve the look you desire.
I could have brackets around wrong words, but not hard to find.
Good Luck.

Looking at getting some Nitto NT05 Tires
2016 Nismo all OEM suspension and Rims
Will: 275/(30or35) 19
305/35 19 work?
I know RE11's in 265/35 19 front 305/30 19 rear work but Nitto doesnt have that many options. Thanks!

OptionZero · 01-09-2018, 05:40 PM

stock Nismo
245/40/19 = 26.7 inches tall
285/35/19 = 26.9

275/30/19 = 25.5, WAY too short imo
275/35/19 = 26.6, good

305/35/19 = 27.5, seems like a monster truck tire to me

Looking at the Nitto website (https://www.nittotire.com/passenger-...formance-tire/)

i'd suggest:
245/40/19 front (same size as stock nismo)
275/35/19 rear (just 10mm more narrow, close enough)

A 275/35-19 at 27.6" is good. A 305/35-19 at 27.5" is a monster truck tire. Misprint? The 275 is taller. The 305 wouldn't be a monster truck tire.

OptionZero · 01-09-2018, 07:01 PM

thats a typo

275/35/19 is 26.6, which is quite close to OEM front and rear height

You’re correct about not having many Choices; to keep diameter of tires close & have a slight rake-I’d probably do the 255/40,305/35’s....but unsure what your driving plans are.
These are definitely not cold weather tires & with the partially shaved tread & low tread wear #...probably won’t last long either.

Now-275/35,335/30’s would look Badazz on correct Wheels’s.

My Z is sunny days only and garaged during the winter/salt season. Driving plans are basically spirited driving and maybe even 1 or 2 track days this year, now that i have a second vehicle i can keep a lot of miles off it so I'm not too worried about tread wear.
You think 255/40,305/35 would have any bad rubbing anywhere?
