CCastro

Can't believe this thread is 5 years old, 2nd page post 19 was my old Z.

I finally talk with the shop and they have the tires in 295/30/18 & 295/35/18 and they are going to change my tires now Im dont know which of those two setup take lol! I was thinking on get the 295/35/18 but I dont know if the 0.8% of difference in diameter are going to affect the traction control looool! here are the pics of the tire calculator.

They have a 305/30/18 but in Achilles ATR Sport... the review are not the best specially at the track where I love to take my Z. So they are not an option.

Outstanding that they are going to hook you up! I'm running 295 30 square...295 35 square would work too! My offsets are +30 on all four wheels so I can rotate them without having to remove the tires. Regardless a square setup is nice at the track.

Pienso igual que tu hermano! por eso estoy mas inclinado por la goma 295/35/18... para que no se vea tanto el Gap .

Gracias por el consejo.

carlitos_370z

Thanks for the recommendation bro! for now im going to keep the 285/35/18 on front and install the 295/35/18 in the rear For my next setup im going to do what you told me. Square setup well that was my intention when I buy the 285/35/18, but I dont expect that the 285/35/18 on the 18x11 wheels are going to look soo stretch

BTW on my 19x11 wheels I have 285/35 installed and dont look that stretch loooool!

I want to give you thanks to everyone who help me with this damn issue! as soon I finish the car im going to post some pics

OptionZero

are you allergic to mildly stretched looking fitment? tire sizes vary by manufacturer, there's always variation

easiest solution? stop tripping about it

I feel the same way he does, I hate stretched tires, it looks tacky IMO. I wouldn't want them on my car. Telling him to stop tripping isn't really helpful. He doesn't want to spend his cash and be stuck with tires he doesn't like for like 2 years.

carlitos_370z

Well my friend, when your wheels have the outer lip exposed like this, I dont think this is mildly stretch tire

I dont like how it looks and I dont want to damage a wheel in a damn hole... Here in PR you can find a lot of those hahhaa!

Anyway I already order the 295/35/18 tires and Im going to change them tomorrow

Thanks to everyone who take their time to help me!

completely agree with you brother!

You understand
