Default 07 350 with 06 rays gt wheels 255/285 michelin

hey guys, heres a few quick pics of the wheels I got off an 06 grand touring.
I just got my michelin ps2's last week 255/40/18 front and 285/35/19 rear.

Ive got some more goodies ordered and I will take some more pics soon but I just wanted to see what your thoughts were about these

The rear ones look good but the front tires are just too fat (sidewall too tall). What is the factory size for the front? 245/35/18 ?

Why not get aftermarket wheels instead? You can easily sell these for a good price with those tires. If you're questioning the look of your car, then it's time to change it up (new wheels, some front lip or new bumper, more drop, new exhaust, etc). A stock carbon silver Z is pretty boring. I know it because I got the same car.

He should have as well just given you 1,500 cash then... Those are the best factory wheels for a Z, period.

no, its some rich kid, his dad owns a used car lot next door to my work, hes seen my Z and so we've chitt chatted a couple of times, he mentioned that he got some new 20's for his z and I asked him what he was going to do with his old wheels and he said he would just give them to me.

I jumped for joy

would the 19 rears fit the front? Not with the same tire width, but with a 255 or something..

I think they looks nice, but I rather than get aftermarket wheels instead.
