The rear is fine, but the front sticks out about 1" past the fender.

My first thought was to keep two for the rear and buy two new RFP1s in 18x9.5 with 38 or 45 offset and go back to a staggered setup but I am told that they won't work because of a spoke clearance issue with the brakes on the.

Does anyone here have any experience with the 18" RPF1s on a 370Z? I am looking for a solution other than selling these and going with a different wheel altogether but that looks like where I am heading.
Wow that's wide on the front. Have you tried to camber it in some?

Default RPF1's

I forgot to mention that I have the Seibon CF fenders that are 10mm wider, but even with that the 10.5's still stuck out so much that I figured no amount of camber adjustment would get them back in the fender well.

I wish I could just replace the fronts with 9.5's and 285 but I'm told there is a spoke clearance issue with the RPF1 9.5 on the front of the Z.

im on the sports package 19's.
received my hankook ventus evo v12's
I got 255/35/19 and 295/30/19
In my opinion you can go more aggressive but will lose steering response.
Mine feels just about right.
When I was looking at my z today I realized you can go 275/35/19 fronts and 305/30/19 rears. and it will sit just right. Not even flush.
I am not dropped, nor do I plan on dropping since I dd my Z and my area is terrible for dropped cars.

Had to change my order from the continental DW super sports due to continental delaying all production for no reason and backordering my tires to 2012 from tire rack. So anyway, ordered 265 35 19f 305 30 19r. Of the potenza pole positions. I'm still running my stock rims on my nismo, Will it fit? Please explain offset, and do I need spacers.

Yes it will fit no problem... Also spacers are not needed unless you want it to look more flush

I am a newbie about wheels and was wondering if this would fit my Roadster with the sport package.

Vertini Magic
20x8.5 +35 Fronts
20x10 +35 Rears
bolt pattern 5x114.3

I know they are pretty close though but was unsure about the offsets and if I needed spacers or anything. Also, how would I figure out the right tire size for these wheels? Any help is appreciated.

One more question to add to this post...

19x9.5 et15
19x12 et0

What kind of tires would I need?
I'll be instaling swift springs or some sort of lowering springs at the same time.

(might even consider coilovers if that's necessary)

Thanks!

you will be fine... you may want spacers if your looking for a flush fitment.
