Stock wheel widths (17 & 18)

[GODCHSR]

I googled info and believe that the 18" stock wheels are 18x8 in front and 18x9 in back? (True???)

What are the 17s?

[GODCHSR]

F: 17x7.5???R: 17x8???

It depends on what year you are talking about...

Stock wheel sizes are 17x7.5 & 17x8 or 18x8 & 18x8.5

The remodeled track wheels on the '06 & '07 Track & Grand Touring models are super staggered at 18x9 & 19x10.

OK, so 18" base on the rear is only 8x8.5...

Not bad but I guess I'm gonna want to keep an eye out for some GT or Track wheels instead. A 10 wide would be super ideal with drag radials.

Do the GT and Tracks come in the same physical look as the others?

Ideally I'd like a 17x7F/18x10R... obviously I'd settle for other setups. I kind of wonder what a 17x7 and 19x10 would look like anyway???

Geez...you need to do a lot of homework on wheels & offsets!

[GODCHSR]

WHAT???OK, I don't really want to get into any kind of measuring contest here but seriously I'm not interested in stupid comments designed to make people feel inferior.

I was asking about 350z wheel sizes, not comparing my knowledge to yours.

I'm building a drag setup... nothing else.

No. I think it might be time to create an OEM Wheel sticky.

Keen-eyed readers will note that I left off the optional chrome wheels. I did that for a reason, they're something I'd rather forget and probably shouldn't have been offered in the first place - they're hideous and look very out of place on the Z (or any other car for that matter). But if you go looking for them online don't say I didn't warn you. And remember, what has been seen cannot be unseen.

WOW! Great post!

I've never actually seen the 5 spokes at all.

I think I'll keep an eye out of the local Z site and see if I can't find some for less than an aftermarket set.

I have a set of the '06 wheels for sale if your interested.

Those are nice but I ended up finding some locally for $500 painted black. Only half tread but I'd be going with a much different tread anyhow.
