Now, if u aren't concerned with performance and are just going for looks you'll be just fine with the dubs, but like others have mentioned, they're not really meant for our cars. 19's is probably as big as I would go on a 350z.
My old 20's have found a much better home on my girls heavier G35.
With 20's
With 18's
Eibach doesn't make a 1.4 drop. Their pro-kit lowers 1" all around and the sportlines lower 1.2" all around. If you're going with 20's I would stay away from both if u don't wanna deal with a bunch of negative camber as u mentioned. I'm currently lowered on hotchkis springs (.6" front .8" rear) and they worked great with the 20's. I would recommend those or tein s-techs.
Now that I'm on 18's the gap is more evident so I'll be going a little lower with the eibach pro-kits....

That's right, u know ur Rancho pretty well lol.....
Second picture was off Haven and a street a can't remember. Next to the dentist, a driving school, and a bank.
and I've been here for coming on 16 years. I know my way around a little lol. But i basically live in Rancho but my address is Fontana.i live off baseline and the 15. Right when i go under the bridge I'm in Rancho
Thanks for your input Bud! 👍🏼 do you think 295/30/20 and 265/30/20 would be a bad idea?
I always like to match stock tire diameters. 255/30 and 285/30 match them perfectly. The sizes u are considering are gonna have a taller sidewall (larger diameter), combined with the larger wheel, will probably look too big. Besides, those tire sizes are rare which makes them expensive. Having had 20's on my z for several years, i would stick to the sizes i mentioned....
You know your stuff!!!thank you very much sir. I will definitely take your advise

Got my wheels and suspension in this past weekend and fenders rolled today. Just have to make some more slight modifications and I'll be happy with my alignment angles
Hey guys I just bought a set of weds kranze bazreia out here in Japan couldn't pass that offer up for the price I paid!! 20x8.5 +38 and 20x10 +44 not sure how these are going to fit or if I'm going to have any fitment issues..... I got a set of pirellis that came with the wheels not sure on the tire specs (have to pick them up) will I have any fitment issues with this setup I do have rolled fenders, coilovers, and camber kit to help just no idea if pulling the fenders will be required!????
I'm also trying to put some stretched tires on there any suggestions?

The wheels will fit just fine, but those offsets are weak. They're gonna be sunk in, nowhere near flush. You need to research offset.

What size tires are you running in these pics, and is the offset +20 F&R? I think I'm looking at the same package deal you have and am really liking your fitment, nice end result!
