and not have to worry about doing any rebarrling? Or, if i want the look im after is a rebarrel something im going to have to do regardless?

I cant thank you enough for helping me out. As you have probably guessed, im not very well versed when it comes to this stuff.
Unless it's a 9.5 and 10.5 combo with offsets in the teens, they will require a rebarrel

Looking to do 18x10.5 +12 with 285/35 all around. Wanted to make sure I wouldn't have clearance issues. I'm lowered on swift springs so I'm not that low.

The front might be a tight fit with the 285/35 tire

I found this guy that is doing it but he is +15 up front. I love the fitment i just don't know if he had to do any other adjustments.

noob here

2006 350z At Stock height

Front:

Tire size = 225 45 18
wheel = 18x9.5 +10 mm

Back:

Tire size = 245 45 18
wheel = 18x9.5 +10 mm

Will these wheels work?

Yes, and you can easily run much wider tires

thanks!

Also what if I went ahead and did fronts 18x9.5 +12 and rear 18x10.5 +15 ?

Again same tire setup 225/45/18 and 245/45/18 at stock suspension.

I do plan on lowering in the future though, I just don't have the money for it at the moment.

That to will also work, I take it that you are trying to retain your current tires. Once they wear out 245/40-18 front and 275/40-18 rear, and it will still work fine when you lower the car

Yes they will be , but it's done often , the talked sidewall on the 234/45 will take it easily. He is just buying time with his old OEM sized tires till they wear out

I would seriously look into some different spec tires. The 265/35-18 you mention makes a great front tire and works well coupled with a 285/35-18 rear. People have even run larger rear tires on that Spec Eberl like a 295/35 or 305/35, then a 275/35-18 is the max front because of the narrow wheel you selected.

So should i get a 275 for the rear and keep the 245 for the front?Also do you recommend a 35 or 40 series tire?

A very common setup for 18's is 245/40 front and 275/40 rear. It is close to the stock tire heights.

The front is going to have problems. 275/35-18 is a better choice , but you may still need to add a hair of camber to clear and keep from rubbing
