The 18x8's. Anyone got any pics. They're +30 right? Anyone got an idea how they'll fit with 225/45 and 245/45? I'm worried that's too much rubber?



What do you think?

I had these on my s14, they cleared my z32 brakes and coilovers. Only dislikes are super heavy wheels and expensive replacement tires. Consequently, mpg drop dramatically

The 350Z 17" look good and would be less penal on tire costs.

Though the 6 spoke 350z 18" forged wheels also look real good and wouldn't be as heavy.

Are they all 18*8's? If so, I wouldn't stagger and just get 225/40 or 45's all around. This will allow you to rotate and 225's are usually cheaper as well. You can use the extra saved cash on some spacers to compensate on that offset.

Those are the sizes that the wheels come with.

Those wheels with good (Toyo in the pic) rubber is well worth $350. Heck you might even be able to flip them for closer to $500 if the tires have close to 80% tread left.

go coilovers. you will eventually want to so you might as well start saving up now. you won't be satisfied with the drop of springs.
