Default Tires

Well I asked this in the tires and wheels section but no one ever answered so I thought I would give this spot a try.

Does anyone know if these would fit a stock 2006 350z?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...AQ:MOTORS:1123

It seems like most people dont have enough room to clear the stock brakes with these sort of tires...
Thank You


Edit: Didn't mean to make it all centered

That's a big NO. Dude, those sizes are for a light truck or SUV. You might be able to throw them on the back of a 1960s muscle car. They aren't even close to what you would put on a 350z. The wheel size isn't even right. 350zs never came with 15 in rims. I take it you don't even own one?

That tire size is ment for drag racing only. The thread you refered to is for someone that is dragging his car. Unless you are planning on using your car only for drag racing, it might work. You do not want that for every day driving.

if they fit on a 98 cobra, chances are VERY good they will fit fine. 6" backspacing on a 10" wheel is about +15, which should fit. i am also pretty sure the 15" wheel clears the brakes too. if you are getting them for the track only, i am about 95% sure they will work great.

wont work. you need to roll fenders to fit the tires for 1...if it was a 50 series it would fit. Backspacing needs to be a 5.5 not a 6. I just ordered my drag radials and 15" rims...$575 from worldone performance
