Wrong offsets on a 350z make it look like a FWD car.

Kyle offset is where the center hub of the wheel is located. If it's at the dead center it would be +0. So if your wheel is 10" wide +0 offset would have 5" width measured from the hub toward the fender. More positive the wheel is more tucked, more negative the wheel sticks out more. Offset is measured in metric system in mm instead of inches so it gets tricky.

so +23 front and +28 rear are fine, just a matter of opinion and preference?

Good. Now you can get some good offset wheels with good tires. Although most people are running cheap tires since the new age of 350z owners is 19

If they come with tires that is a plus but I will change them out to good tires either way.

Honestly can't tell the difference from one offset to the other. All look like they fit to me.
