370z Sport Rims same size as Nismo Rims?

Call me a rookie, but I'm in the process up swapping out my sport rays for some Nismo wheels and just want to confirm that I can throw the tires

The NISMO are .5" wider F&R. They come with 285s in the rear.

Nismos are .5 wider all around. You should be able to use the same tire though.

Thanks for the info guys, glad I checked.

So realistically I should be problem free? I am running the stock tire sizes on the rays.

I want to make sure before I pull the trigger on this, thanks..

depends which nismo's. Assuming you are talking about the ones off of the nismo Z, then yes, they are .5" wider, but will still work.

If you are talking S-tune Nismo wheels, then they are exactly the same spec as the sport rays.

either way, you are fine.
