Wow, i thought i was the only one who ever heard/had those. I had those on my cavalier 17" with some cheap BSA wheels that they came with. Tires were OK but for a Z or a G35 you will probably want to go with something a lot better and stickier. I personally wouldnt go with them, just my opinion tho.

I have a friend that had these on a gtp. He had traction issues with that car and tire combo. I would not run them on your car if you like to drive with any spirit.

im planning to use the sizes 245/35/19 for the fronts only.
The rears I am going to use are Dunlops or Bridegestones.
I don't drive aggressively at all as of late.

what about Nankangs or Falkens?

Nankangs are in the same class as Wanli's

Falkens are very good tires. I had them on my 19's before I went to Winter 18's and they got great traction.
