Default 2007 350Z 18inch wheels on 2009 370Z with Sport Package

I know this is going to sound stupid but, I figured this would be the best place to ask. I recently sold my 2007 350 and now have a 2009 370 with sport package arriving in a few days. Right before I sold my 350 I put winter tires on my stock 18s and was curious if they could be used on my 370 or if they would even fit over the brakes. Thank you for whatever help anyone can give me.

The car is not here yet. It is being transferred here. I hope it gets here before thursday. If not it will be here saturday. I was just curious if anyone knew the answer right off the top of their head. If they dont fit Im going to sell the wheels and tires locally. BTW thanks for the intuitive reply. Good day

I didn't mean to be sarcastic - so my apologies. I've seen 370 wheels on 350's, so I don't see why they wouldn't fit, although they may need a spacer depending on the offset's. Do you have the Akebono's calipers on your 370 or the stock, Non-akebono brake setup?

Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

Use these numbers for the 370Z:

19x9 +47
19x10 +30

Your 350 used 18" wheels and tires, your 370 has 19" wheels and tires. Are you saying you KEPT the wheels (or tires?) from your 350?

I kept the wheels and tires from my 350. It had aftermarket wheels on it when I sold it. Im asking because I just spent $1000 putting new snow tires on the old wheels and would like to know if I can stick these 350 wheels on my 370 to use during winter. I know its going to look dumb but, around here the winter can get a little nasty sometimes. Better safe than sorry you know.

Your new wheels are 19x9 +47 and 19x10 +30. Your old wheels are 18x8 +30 and 18x8.5 +33 (assuming they are the OEM 5-spokes). It won't look great, but I believe it'll work.

i ran my stock 07 rims with the akebono upgrade for a few weeks on my 2007 350z. It fit...barely. I think it will be fine.
