Hey, I'm pretty new to the car scene and im unsure about my fitment. I have a 2012 base model 370z with the stock 18" rims.

I installed the airlift 3p kit. Next on my list was a new set of tires and wheels. Right now i was planning on running 245/40 in the front and 275/35 in the rear with the oem nismo rays which are 19 x 9.5 +40 in the front and 19 x 10.5 +23 in the rear. At the moment I have 225/50 in the front and 245/45 in the rear and 18x8 +43 in the front and 18x8 +15 in the rear. The fitment right now is pretty tight and when I'm aired out the fronts are touching the fender liners and the rears still have room.

Any suggestions on what I should run to get a nice flush fit.

Throw your shitty *** 18s away

If u invested in air it means u need to invest in the rest of the suspension so u can get a custom alignment

Go to SPl parts website
But the front upper controls arm still and all three rear arms. Call them and they'll tell you want you need if you can't figure it out

With air and adjustable suspension you can basically run...anything

It was pretty negligent of you to pay for all that work and not look into wheel sizing and arms first
When aired out there is substantial wheel tuck so clearance should never be a problem


Something like 10 or 11 inch in front and close to zero offset
Rear something around 12 inches and zero offset

Don't even come back and ask about 18's
