Well you do have a valid and true point. Before I knew that I could even fit 325/30R19s on my rear Nismo wheels, I bought an old, used set of Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar "Runflat" tires for $120 on...

What you said about not using the whole tread is true and actually very beneficial to me. The 370Z calls for heavy camber in the rear (compared to let's say, a sedan), so his actually helps a lot...

Depends on the tire, if it's a stiff sidewall runflat then yes, they're probably impossible to mount. My coopers however fit relatively easily, I watched them install them and it didn't look like...

Congrats! You had 275/30R19 for the front? Good thing you sent those back as they're far too small in overall diameter. They should be 275/35R19 or (even better) 285/35R19. Are your 285s 30s or...

315/35R19 would be way too large of an overall diameter, 325/30R19 is really close to the stock 285/35R19 in diameter. Idk if you'll rub or not but you'll have massive sidewall and a huge tire...I...

Hi mouse!

The redesigned 2015/2016 Nismo wheels have the exact same widths and offsets as the 2009-2014 Nismo wheels. You shouldn't have any issues running this setup.
