keeping stock wheels question

jasonhoutx · 05-14-2009, 02:56 PM

I am new to this. I am getting the 370z soon with touring and no sports package. Has anyone gone the route of just beefing up the 18" wheels to 275 or bigger on the backs? Does it look bad?

The sport comes with 275/19" on the back, but didn't know if its possible to make the nonsport package look just as good?

thanks

The rear wheel is 18x9", so it theory you could stick a 275 on there. The front is 18x8" so you're going to max out at 245 or so (maybe 255). I have 275 on my front 19x9" sport wheels without issue.

You could also buy a set a of used sport package wheels and tires from someone that is going to aftermarket wheels.
