I was running this setup for a while on my s13, so it'll definitely work on your car.

Chet, it's the sedan that has 17x7 all around.

To each our own!

But yes, they clear Z brakes (wohooo off topic!)

Aka Chet gets off on tires while the rest of his suspension is soft entry level non-manly crap

Thanks for your help with the z32 brake question. I ordered a set today.

Now does anybody know about coilover fitment especially Megan Racing coilovers.

This car is strictly for street use, and if there is a problem I'll just go with Kyb/Agx's and Eibach Pro Kit.

Thanks

i thought that these wheels are the wheels for G35 coupes... no?

I used this pic to show how these wheels cleared brembo cals. If they clear these then surelly they will clear Z32 brakes...

With the sport package (me thinks that's what it's called), you get the 18's and the brembos. The base coupes though come w/ 17" wheels in the sizes the thread starter posted.

Oh and IIRC, there is more spoke clearance with the Brembos than with the Z32 brakes.

the rest of my suspension exploits grip, not stiffness. a$$.

Love you alan.

Suffice to say, you'll encounter no problems with G35 or 350Z wheels and Z32 brakes.-Chet

Thanks to everybody that replied. I think I'm going to go with a agx/tein s tech setup over coilovers. coilovers seem like overkill for a street setup.
