Default Need some help.

Okay before I start, if you hate Rota wheels then press the back button

OPTION 1:





Wheel Manufacture/ Model: Rota P45R2
Wheel Size/Offset: 18x9.5 +15 (Front)
18x10 +20 (Rear)
Wheel Finish: Hyper Black
Bolt Pattern: 5x114.3

..and I was thinking for adding a 25 mm spacer at the back. The tires that come with them are:
2 Tires (Nankang NS-II 245/40/18)

2 Tires (Nankang NS-II 265/35/18)

^They look pretty weak, but would I have any rubbing issues after I drop them with eibach and run a 25mm spacer at the back?

OPTION 2:

These are 18x9 +30 offset on all 4 wheels
^What spacer would I have to use for front and back to get it flush?

OPTION 3:

These are 18x9.5 +28 all around
^Would these work with some spacer?

Thanks all,
Gunzero

I would choose number one, then two. I take cleaning into account when choosing though.

I just installed a set of polished linea corse dynas on my 350. They are the Ts1 reps. They arent that bad a looking rim if you ask me, you should definitely consider those.

Plus 18's are imo too small for the 370z. I would get some 19's.

Thanks all.
I just don't have money, hehe.
It'll be a year or two before I get out of college and even then,
a house will be my main priority.
Option 1 cost $1299.00 with tires so I think I will get those.

Option 1, but 18x10 all around for the concavity on the front also. Remember though, they look good on a 350, but just like the 350 used to, the 370 is even worse and swallows up wheels in the huge fenders. I know you may be trying to save money, but 18's arent the best look for this car.

imho, if you're going to stick with 18's due to budget, get some spacers for your stockers and save your funds for when you can buy 19's. the stock 18's dont look bad.

^Yeah.. you're right. Might as well save for that turbo kit haha.
What spacer do I need for the front and rear to have it flush?
I'll be lowering this too.

i am dropped on H&R springs with stock 18's and i have 20mm(rear) and 15mm(front).

The back was a little inward before i did a camber adjustment now they are coming out a little, which makes it look more aggressive. The front can use a 20 imo.
