Alright so I bought some 350z wheels for my 2.5 coupe (no drop as of yet) 18x8 up front and 18x8.5 in the rear. What size tire are you all going with? Should I do a staggared size? Don't want to little sidewall but yet done want a to thick sidewall. If you all have pics post em up along with size of tires front and rear and let me know if its dropped. I was thinking of 255/40/18 rear and 245/40/18 front. Give me your thoughts?

Thanks

I don't have the same 350Z wheels but the sizes are the same on my track wheels as your 35th's; 235/45 r18's all away around works fine. That will keep your tire diameter the same as OEM, so you odometer and speedometer will not be affected. Also I'm dropped.

Thanks for the info. Do you have any pics of your ride with these tires on?

I like the last pic; what color is that on the wheels? It looks like a light gunmetal. My wheels the previous owner just had them powder coated white, and to me they reminded me too much like propane tanks. They had to be repainted; I had only the faces repainted leaving the inside white thinking it wouldn't be noticeable, which was a mistake. I wished I had gone something a little darker in the silver; I wished I would have asked if they could do Hyper Black (actually silver in color). Can you post up more pics of those wheels, because I've been debating going back to the paint booth? Sorry to thread jack.
