Agreed. Ill be running 245/285.

Guess ill have to follow :) prob run the 245 if i run a 10mm in the front. 35 series front 30 rear??

:ugh2:

Mine is a 2012 Base Coupe with no Nismo or sport fanciness.

I've got a lead on some Blizzak snow tires. The wheels are universal bolt pattern Drag Brand, DR-11, 18". My concern is the 4 tires that come on them are 235/50R18. Is that gonna cause some rubbing or other problems? I know the staggered size is ideal but these will probably be on for about 2 or 3 months of the year, and they don't need to be pretty. Worth the purchase or pass? thanks!

What are the offsets on the wheels? Most issues are people clearing brakes because of the design but with base brakes, almost any wheel clears. Most people run square setup for their winter set up with spacers in the rear to make it not look so weird. If you dont car how it looks, then spacers arent necessary.

SIZE: 18x7.5
BOLT PATTERNS: (4 x 100/114.3)(5 x 100/114.3)
OFFSET: 42mm / 45mm
LIP MEASUREMENT: 1.75"

My guess is the wheels will clear the base calipers, its the 235/50/18 tire with that tall sidewall that I'm worried will rub potentially. Any idea?

Sidewall is not a concern as long as youre at stock height. I think your bigger concern is clearing the brakes at that high of an offset with that skinny of a wheel. Nothing spacers couldnt fix though.

Thanks a ton, I'll test one of them on the front before I buy, hopefully they clear.

why would you buy such a crappy skinny wheel.. sorry... not a good diea..

Some people like to ice skate...:roflpuke2:

Haven't bought it yet, but it's for snow anyway, skinny is better. Not going to do any autocross with blizzaks on :rofl2:

hope they are super cheap then.. cus otherwise byuing a set of stock 18's might be a better option for some snow tires...

Lady is asking for 600 with the tires on there. I doubt I'll be able to get stock 370z wheels with fitting snow tires for anywhere near that price.

i was thinking of getting 20 inch rims, (front) 245/35/20, (rear) 275/30/20. everything as of yet is stock on my car and with the original sport akebono brakes, so will that wheel and tire size fit without the purchase of any additional items?

im not sure about these (offsets, + or -) and how there measured, but that relates to the wheel clearing the calipers so they dont touch i assume.

oh, and why is the thickness, (middle #) larger then the rear? why cant they both front and rear be 30/30?, 245/((35))/20 front, 275/((30))/20 rear
