I am interested in ordering some wheels for my 2004 350z. But I am not sure about the sub model. I keep on getting asked about whether my car is BASE or W/BREMBO, and I am not sure how to differentiate. I’d like some information on how I can tell. My 350 z has an automatic transmission and a V6 engine. I believe that the base model has a 6 speed transmission. But I am not sure. I am novice at this and I need some help. I also need some feedback on whether or not the type of 350z I have can handle being staggered with the following sizes I read on the 350zclub.com website. (http://www.nicoclub.com/archives/nicocl ... -tire.html). He had 20’ rims on the front with 255/30/20 sized wheels. And on the rear he had 20’ and 285/30/20.
Thanks

Welcome aboard!
That one's easy. If you have an automatic, you don't have the Brembo (larger) brakes.
The fitment you're looking at will look great (that article is actually about my personal car).

Hello AZhitman,
This is Armyspecialist4 and I would like to thank you for your timely response! You have been a great help to me! Where can I find the Nitto INVO tires that you wrote about in the sizes that I need?
Thank you in advance!

Roger that - that's what we do!
I'm a HUGE fan of TireRack for buying tires. You can shop locally, but 90% of the time, their price and selection clobbers the locals (and you get fresher tires!)
With that said, keep in mind the INVOs I reviewed in 2008 were cutting-edge at the time. In 2015, I'm not sure they'd be my #1 choice. I'm a fan of the Hankook Ventus V12, among others. Read some reviews, and pick what makes sense for your climate, driving style, and budget.
