Those with 18 inch Nismo's
I am getting a set of Silver Nismo's and I believe the offset to be +25 in the front and +30 in the rear and was wondering how flush do they sit to the fender. I have searched and could not find any side pics of the Nismo wheels to see how the offset sits on the Z. Can anyone chime in on how these wheels sit on the Z. I also think these wheels are staggered and what tire sizes you guys run with the 18's......Any pics of the Nismo's 18's would be great.....MC350Z chime in

here are a few quick shots i just snapped. i can get you some more specific day time shots if you want.
to me i think the offset is SO much better than stock. as you guys know the stock wheels look really tucked in
you should run 245/40 18 and 275 40 18 rear my reccomendation would be Potenza S03's

Tony at Performance Nissan was running this setup with 275/35R18 up front and 275/40R18 out back. Jason@performance said the VDC was happy. (you can read that here http://www.350zmotoring.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=34533 )
Here are the pics...
Hope that helps a bit,
Chris

OT: I have already RSVPd and am making every effort I can to go to that meet. I am 98% sure I will be there. You're not mad at me or anything are you, I don't want to get there and get popped in the nose.

I can bring the screw driver but its not going to be much use in the day time.
Waiting for my wheels is killing me, I have had the shipping numbers on my widget since thursday and man ground shipping is uneventful. They get picked up in VA, arrive at UPS, departure scan and then nothing. They could be in Texas right now. Can't they track those trucks with GPS and post a link to where the truck is at all times?
