well, that would depend on what your goal is. do you want to be meaty flush, stretched flush, slammed and not flush?

18x8 +30 is pretty sunken in there.

it's factory offset for front. Not to slammed but not having any wheel cap. I will be fender rolling and I love wide tires but no meaty sidewall. Stagger please...also no stretched flush. I don't want to hear any scrape in the bottom. Too low for me. I want similar to Duckeee style with my offset

sooooooooooooo beautiful^^^^ I've fall in love with your ride lol. I save all the pictures you posted and show my buddys on facebook. They loved it, especially your Top secret diffuser. I might just end up with 245/40/18 and 275/40/18 rear. Sound good?

P.S with the 30 offset for front and you mention sunken in...will that look ugly when I put the MB wheels battle on?

This is how I want mine to be. Any idea on this tires fitment. I think this is different offset then mine but I hope it will come close to it.

well a little bit close to it as possible lol. 18x8 30 in front so I'm not to worry about it. I'm more worrying the back since I know it could be lower to that point.

rimtuck.com will help you out zhinobi. that red Z on cr kais is on there as well.

hes on 18x9.5 all around -13 front and -18 rear on 225 40's all around.

in order to achieve that look you'll need coilovers that go pretty low, roll and pull all your fenders, and get like a 30mm spacer all around. its a long shot if you have none of the above.

i suggest buying different wheels with better offsets, and researching a lot.

^ that thread is your friend. please, spend a few weeks looking through it. you'll learn best doing research yourself and you won't get flamed.

well I'll keep you update on my car with picture when I put the wheels on and then will see what size spacers needed. I hear mix message from people with either 10m or 15m and now you telling me 20m. I will do my best with every bumps I come across.

Hey, I went to rimtuck and did the info. but nothing pop up for my fitment. Maybe you could help me. I put down all the numbers but nothing pop up in data or thumbnail

its up to you how aggressive you want to go but if you're using that red Z as reference in regards to how you want your car to look, 10-15mm spacer on a 18x8 +30 won't do much justice.

rimtuck is not a calculator. its just a database with pictures of fitment with wheel and tire sizes included.

simply go search for nissan 350z and click thumbnails.

Just a little reference and to droool on but I know my offset is no where close to it so it won't turn out to be like that. Oh ok, Gotcha now about the site.

I swear after looking at RIMTUCK! my wheel offset is weak!!! I kind of regret it now but I already brought it. I love Duckees setup and the red Z but now I can't get those cause of my dumbass offset.

P.S it's weak, because nobody on rimtuck have my offsets cry* fml

sell em on craigslist. +30 18x8 wont get you any where near what you are looking for.

This is what your going to be getting with that setup
