Looking at purchasing Gram Lights 57CRs in 19x9.5 +25 (F) and 19x10.5 +12 (R)...wondering if these will clear my Akebonos and fitment wise (flush/poke if any). I'm currently on a subtle 1in drop.

On the fitment page on Rays website, it designates icons to specific chassis'...one being 350 & 370 and another solely 370. I'm starting to think one is sports model and one is not when referencing the 370 icon? https://www.rayswheels.co.jp/product...=en&wheel=57CR

Any input would be greatly appreciated as vendors I've contacted haven't been able to give a clear response.

Hey man! Not sure if you tried contacting me or not but I have sold this exact same setup to someone running Akebonos and it fit just fine. In fact, I have photos for you! Please hit me up if you want to get a set of these.

Customer didnt tell me his suspension setup. But it does look to be stock height. So this should give you an idea. But I have sold plenty of wheel setup similar to this and you will be fine with your 1 inch drop. It will be a little inside fender. He also got a set of the Black/Blue center caps and the new Project Kics Monolith lugs from us as well.

Can you tell me the front and rear tire size specs on this set up? Thanks.

Picking up a 370Z sport 6MT next month. I already have some new HKS Hypermax IV GT coil-overs that come from factory with a minimal 3/4" drop. Where I live here in N AZ the roads can have some pot holes and speed bumps and I also live in a house with a driveway that has a slightly steep incline so I am not looking for a big drop.

Been doing a lot of research on new wheels/tires and going to go with 19's at 9.5/+25 - 10.5/+12. I was thinking of just going with the Nismo spec tires (245/40, 285/35) but after seeing those pics above maybe the 265/305's might look better with the minimal drop. Don't want the sticking out poke look but I do like the more meaty look.

Opinions?

The Nismo Spec is actually slightly taller in comparison to the 265/305 set up. I run HKS IV and it looks and runs well.

Is that with the factory setting from HKS?

Looks great!
