wasti · 08-13-2010, 03:26 PM

hello guys,

size is 9,5 x 20 in front with 245/40/20 tires, 10,5 x 20 with 285/35/20 rear.

you shouldnt have to make any adjustments to the body, the 370's take big rims

20x9.5 will fit easily so will the 10.5. You have nothing to worry about shoot you may need to run spacers to make ur new wheels flush.

How far does the hub sit out from the center line of the wheel? If it sits further out the wheel will sit further into the car. If it sits closer to the center line then the wheel will stick out further from the car.

kenchan · 08-24-2010, 06:41 PM

unfortunately its one piece. the 370 z isnt a car which you can see in europe every day, one reason why they dont offer here a big choice of rimms. so i just hab the possibility between some models. tomorrow i will take some pics from my car.

kenchan · 08-25-2010, 08:31 PM

if your drive your Z as a daily driver one piece wheels are good. they are a lot easier to clean and dry.

i have 3pc wheels on my G and it's my weekend touring car so i dont get her dirty, but when it comes time to washing, the wheels are a biotch to dry.

i need to use compressed air.

here they are. looks good but not wow.
