those are around 17x8 +30 offset, right? if so, they will clear easily in all directions.

there are several 350z wheels, how about posting some specs so we don't have to go searching for them.

theres a guy here locally running 350z's on his S14, it looks like clearance isn't an issue on that one....not sure which sizing variant his are though.

yeah, those will fit fine, though, the tires are too big. the rears are a little over 5% too large so your speedo will be off. not a big deal other than that though.

will it be ok to go down to 225/45R17 all around after they wear?... because 235/50R17 tires are a lil pricy for me.

We'll be running the 225-45-17 front and 235-45-17 rear on Chad's (Camel) S14a after the RE40s wear out..should fit nicely, evne if its a little bit large on the rear.

I think it's 17x7.5 +30 & 17x8 +33, I had a set of the G35 coupe wheels, and I think they're the same fitments.
