Rusty, that's pretty amazing. What size sidewalls?

Reading this thread was why I went with 275/35/19 and 305/30/19 on my sport package.

No rubbing at all, drives great. Lowered w Eibach pro-kit springs.

Both pictures are on uneven ground, but you get the idea.

Reading this thread is why I just bought some 325 RE-11s. Hope they work out well. I'll post some pics once they're installed.

It's funny, my friend and i were talking about them going up to 265 vs 275 on the rear of her RX7. After talking for a while, I laughed and I said you realize a lot of guys are running 265 or 275s on the *front* of their 370z. The Z definitely loves wide rubber.

If you're running the factory Nismo wheels they should work out well...definately post the pics, I wanna see what seems will be the second person to put 325s on the their OEM Nismo wheels.

Just to double check, they are 325/30R19 correct?

Yes, and I'm running the OEM rear 285s in the front without issue so yes, the Z DEMANDS more rubber

Oh I know about you Rusty, you're one of the only (if not the only) person on this thread to wear as wide as 345...I would do it if I had the wheels for it but my 10.5" can only take so much. (no pun intended )

Ken, got a picture how she looks with the nismo wheels and no spacers on our non nismo? I'm currently using 20mm spacers all around on my sport wheels but switching to the nismo wheels soon, I'd like to go without the spacers if it isn't too sunken in if you know what I mean. Pm me please!
