I have a Veilside Widebody kit on my Z and currently I am running front: 245-35-19 and Rear: 275-35-19... will these foregstar OK to put on my Z? Anybody here running size wide like that? Thanks.

You need to know the bolt pattern. You need 5x114. Also, if your car isn't a base model and has VDC/TCS. Those tire sizes won't work because they are square. Also would be good to know the offsets.

They are hideous by the way. Just do yourself a favor and pass on them. Research more and save your money.

You're going to need to know the bolt pattern, width, centerbore, and offsets in order to figure out if they'll work.
You can ask him to get all the info off the back of the wheels

But unless they came off a 350Z or G35, I doubt they'll fit properly on your Z

What's wrong with square tires?

but remember the wider the wheel the wider of tire you will need, another popular setup is 18x9.5 on all corner with 255/40 tires on the front and 275/40 on the rear (which is what i run)

Square tires have been known to cause accidents. People will take their eyes off the road to stare at your geometrically superior rubber and drive off the road or into the car in front of them. Save a life. Choose circular tires.

Black and round, every time. Better insurance rates, too.
