With respect the the fronts -- I conderer the front wheels / tires on the front of my car as fitting awesome and they are 19x9.5 +11. When looking at the proposed offset of 19x9 +16, THEY WILL FIT PERFECT. When running down the offset sizing on the fronts that we all know fit well here we go: (Base measure of 19x9.5 +22 - I can find pictures if you would like),

Also, don't get me started on rice ....

x8.5 - +9
x9 - +16
x9.5 - +22

Here you go ... 255/35 , 285/35 on a 19x9.5 +22 and 19x10.5 +22. This is the wheel fitment that you were proposing that would not fit! IMO, this is the PERFECT fitment for the 350z. Now please tell me how you think this setup is all wrong!

Those tires are BFG T/A KDW 2, at least thats what tire rack calls them. They're what I have on my SP1s. Very nice tires.

And drumma thanks for the help.

but not everyone likes the rear wheels sticking out past the well...and with 10.5 +22, that's what happens (it is slight but its there without gobs of camber).

For the suggested rear size, you are going to run into clearance issues with the fender if the car is dropped significantly (2 inches +), unless you roll the rear fenders and run some decent camber (2 degrees or more)

I've posted this many times, but point of reference - I am dropped around 2 inches out back, with 9.5 +20 out back. T1S did not rub, S03's do - and this is with 2.1 degrees of rear camber. I will be rolling my fenders soon
