Is a 18x7.5 +42 too small? See photo
 
Sorry, I just got the car. Don't know much about wheels on it. I'm looking at some wheels. Here's the size: 18x7.5 +42. Will this work on my base 370Z with my stock 18" tires? Seems like 7.5 is a bit narrow for the rear tires.

Are these wheels lame?
Here's what they look like:

nice but to small for the Z

I found these last night. I like them better. Thoughts???

Fronts will be 18x8.5. Which offset is better, 30 or 40?
Rears are 18x10. Think my stock tires are ok going from a 9" to a 10" rim?

i like those second ones. i'm really liking the mesh wheels on the Z

Zerafian 03-26-2010 10:06 AM

the lower the number for offset the better...to be vague your looking for numbers between 20-30..this is a conservative number for offset on the 370

Is this Marco's car?

As for those wheels, I think you're looking at a 18x8.5 +30 and 18x10 +20. That should work with minimal issues. :tup:

Thanks, I think I'll go with the XXR's. Low cost with decent looks.

18x8.5 +20 and 18x10 +10 would be a solid fit. I run 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +15 with meaty tires and no fitment issues.
