Need Help on Size of Rims
 
Hey Guys,

I'm putting 22rims size off set on my 370z and need to know what size tire would work on the front so that it will not rub..without having to alter the springs...???

You are kidding about putting 22 inch rims on your Z right?
A 20 inch is more then enough to fill up the wheel well... A 22 is going to raise the height of your car and it will look like a 4X4...

Go with a 20 inch wheel at most and tire sizes you can go with a 255-275 width up front and a 275-305 width in the rear with 30 series profiles.

Good luck

i think a 21 inch would look good but 22 would be too much and look weird

Oh no no no no no

Not going to help you ruin your Z OP :eek:

I'm going to assume OP meant +22, not 22"

No, I'm pretty sure he meant 22". "Off set rims" is a term that people who don't know a lot about wheels use to refer to staggered setups with low offsets. I'm pretty sure he wants to run staggered low offset 22" wheels on his 370Z.

I'd love to help, but I've got no experience with anything over 20" on a Z. I'm going to warn you though... Based on what I know about 20s on a Z, you're not going to get a 22" wheel on this car without some work, unless you want this look:

That's a Caprice ;)

The Impalas are pretty cool too, but I've never been a huge fan of any GM car in the 90s, besides the C5 Corvette. My dad has a '66 Impala convertible. We call it the Pimpala lol

"They see me rollin' they hatin, gonna catch me ridin' dirty"

The white Branew Z above looks like it may have 21s
Personally 19 and 20s are what looks the best.
