Help Please!?! What Wheels will Fit?

[nick350z]

Hi, i recently picked up a 2003 350z touring edition.
I would like to get new wheels and tires but the Brakes that are on the car are AP racing brakes and there huge.
Will any wheels fit my car? Any suggestions? I really want new shoes for my car but don't want to spend the extra $$ to put factory brakes on.

Thanks

Not every wheel will fit your car, you might need a wheel spacer so your wheels can clear the brakes.


The Ap racing brakes must be a burden, I'm sure you will want to trade me for my oem brakes..eh?

I suppose I could deal with some AP brakes, I'll trade them even for my OEM Brembos.

On the serious side though, the first thing you should do would be to check the AP website and see if it has a caliper template that shows you how much backspacing you need on your wheels. If they don't have a template for download you may need to contact someone at AP directly.

Here's a great example on how to use a caliper template from the StopTech website.

Thank You. I will post a link to pics now. I know how to get the template but dont know which model brakes are on.
