Not bad. So no spacers required for the back to look close to flush then? How did it look without spacers up front? Do you have pictures showing the wheels from the rear and front?

i dont have a pic with the view of a photoshot like you mentioned...They just look a lil more sunken in...maybe a 5mm spacer will make it touch the fenders in front..there is about an inch between the tire and fender in front...they did rub..then i rolled them..the rears are flush..But you gotta think now, these are stock nissan track wheels... not works or no super wide wheel...225/40 front ...245/40 rear...8 inch in front.. 8 1/2 in back..

To me fitment is a combination of the wheel AND tire. A 225 tire on a 10" wide wheel doesn't "fit". It's like seeing a 6'2" guy walk around with 30" inseam jeans.... it looks F'n stupid

So I just went and bought some G35 18" rims yesterday and threw them on my car lastnight, Kouki. No pictures yet.

I had a question to see if you guys know the answer. I believe all 4 rims are 18x8 +30, they also said 18x8 and 30 inside of the spokes. The rear rims also said "Rear" and the front rims also said "Front" inside of a spoke. Do you guys know if the fronts can be used for rear and rears and be used for front? Any idea why they marked them? Maybe just because of the staggared tire fitment? I plan on using same size tires all around, maybe 225/40 or something.

Also, I still have the stock 225/45 and 245/45 on the rims. The front rims sit pretty close to my coilover. The rears sit fine. The rim is maybe about a half inch away and the tire is probably a little closer since it sticks out a little over the rim. Will I be okay as long as it's not touching?

As per the link on the first page of this thread, those wheels are the same size. Nissan just put different sized tires on them. That's a pretty lame way to stagger a setup IMO. I don't see any reason you couldn't switch them around provided that you used to same size tires all around...

I was about to ask the same thing, just picked up a sweet set of Touring V.1's for $300 with staggered tires, but will be running the same tire size eventually, once I get it lowered too.

Finally got my 350Z Touring V.1 wheels on, they are factory staggered 225/45 in front and 245/45's in back. 18 x 8's all around with a +30 mm offset. Picked up a clean set for $300 with tires. Tires have some rot from sitting out in the guy's back yard and have 70% tread on them, so I will need to buy a new set soon for safety's sake. I'll probably run the same size all around so I can rotate them, but until then the staggered set up will have to do. AND I KNOW I NEED TO LOWER IT!!!!!!!!! Saving up for some coilovers too, no worries

Before

After

And now for some other angles aka whorage.

Sits pretty flush, no roll, clears stock suspension, some jerk scraped my bumper a few months back and didn't leave me insurance info, I'm just glad it wasn't worse.
