I need a bit of help, I have a 350Z Auto Touring. I'm looking to buy Rims, and Actually my plans are to buy centerline rims. I'm hearing rumors that the Auto Touring can not hold anything more than 17's does anyone know if this is true? If not does anyone know the measurments for the wheel bolt circle for 17 or 18 in rims? also, what should the offset be? Thanks everone,

Totally false...

you need 5x114.3 bolt pattern, roughly max of 19x9.5 +28 front 19x10.5 +23 rear, (disregarding 20")

Just check tire calculators and offset caculators if you need more help with fitment, and keep searching the forums for ideas and sizing info.

 

FALSE... regardless of your trim level you can fit 17-18-19-20 with 5x114.3 bolt pattern. Just make sure you have the right tire size and offsets

 

Tire Sizes you need

19" 245-35-19 front 275-30-19 rear

20" 245-30-20 front 275-30-20 Rear

 

First you NEED to find the size wheels you like best (don't just get 20's cause they are the biggest unless thats what you like), then what rim width you want, then what offset is needed for that rim width.

 

I'm running 245/35/19 and 275/35/19; but i'm about to run 285/35/19 soon

 

Ok thanx for all the input, Does anyone know what tire size and offset is needed for 18's and also what about the width, should that stay the same? I plan on gettin Falken Azenis RT-615's with Centerline Viking rims....appreciate the Help.

For 18's I would run 245/40 - 275/40. It depends on your wheel width. If you go 10.5inch rears, you might have to go with a diff size tire than 275/40

For 19's 245/35 - 275/35 .... Some people run 30s on the rear but I went with 35s to fill the gap and to provide a little more rubber in case I hit a pot hole

 

I wouldn't recommend 275/30/19 either. 35 is more appropriate for the Z IMO
