What the hell, you haven't owned a 370Z this whole time?!?!?!

I think you're looking at wheels backwards. Find a set you like, then width, then tire you wanna run, then offset

That is all done. The offset have been decide (they are ones that are available and can not be changed).

The only thing to decide is the tire width. That's why I am asking about how close to get to the inside of the fender. If choose a narrow tire vs a wider tire, the tire will be more sunk in of stick out closer to the fender. I want to go with the widest possible, but how far out is too far?

I have been following your advice. I think I agree that I don't want the 4x4 look.

Thank you. I am maybe too much into research, but I like to learn stuff.

And learn from mistakes of others.

Shít, that's a lot of size difference...
I'd still try to run 275 up front and 305 in the rear to avoid too much understeer.
