I just bought a set of wheels from a member for winter. They are 17 by 7.5 WIll this clear my 350z track with brembos. I also have 1 inch spacers, so if it doesnt clear my spacers should push em out. Is this enough...I dont know the offset

 

I think you might be screwed.
Besides. 350Z's can't be driven in winter anyways. Store it and buy a winter beater.
/thread.

 

You can most definitely drive your 350z in the winter.

 

No you can't. It gets all messed up and gross. It gets all corroded and the paint starts to suck. Then it just gets pawned off ot the scrap heap in like 5 years.

 

I would think with the spacers it would likely be fine, but you'll have to test fit to be sure...

 

Im sick of every winter seeing someone asking questions about winter tires and the same jerk offs chiming in on how their too cool for school and how they store their car. You want to store your car? Go ahead. Nobody asked, nobody cares. Either help the guy out with his question or shut up, seriously.

 

I love my z. But seriously ill take the lip out and just drive it...I had a s2000 that i loved and guess what i regret not driving it in the winter casue i eneded up selling it...All cars eventually get sold...No matter what, nobdoy keeps their car forever..Most of you winter car storers will sell your cars and not even get your asking price...So, why store, its a depreciating beauty, just drive it...ENJOY...Do you really want to drive a shitbox for the winter....I go downtown, so ill take the ttc on the bad days..

 

NOW, can i use these tires..I have inch spacers in the back and front, hubbcentric, so will 17 wheels clear brembos...If not, im sure they clear the non brembo z.....Anyone wanna buy tsw 17 inch wheels for 100

 

if u had the rim already why not put them on and test if they clean or not!?
put them on and see if anything touching each other?

 

You know what, this is so true. I winter stored my Porsche for 4 years and when I sold it with 61,000km on it I didn't get any more money than one winter driven with 100,000km to be honest. I tried but it sat and sat forever and I had to drop the price eventually to get rid of it.

The problem is if your looking to spend 30k on a car you can get some nice stuff from the States but spend 25k for the same thing (or less) so trying to sell on the high side is really hard. Id rather buy a car with 100k vs. 61k and spend 5,000 bux less too...

 

I got my asking price
The underside of my z was so clean!

^+1
You have the rims, just put them on and test it out. Then put up a review for others.

 

Yes the clear....TOns of space...But, i dont know how much use ill get since i subway to work and barely to get to drive the car as is..But, if anyone needsa sick set of 17 inch wheels that will clear brembos...PRICE IS NOW RAISED to 150 ..

 

I think you should store your car bender. It stays much nicer that way.

 

i believe the stock ecu also has a feature where if it detects any snow, it automatically drives you home and parks your z in the garage (if you have one).

 

Awesome!

 

i also use spacers and 17" rims in the winter. it will be fine.

 

I think you should store your car jason. It stays much nicer that way.

 

it's just a z

 

"just a z"?

BLASPHEMY!!!!

 

Yes just a ****ing Nissan
