Just ordered new wheels
http://www.motegiracing.com/wheels/d...desc=§ion=
According to the chart, the only width and offset available on a 19" wheel is 7.5" +45. A 275 tire will not fit on a 7.5" wide wheel. Trust us when we say this is not going to look good and might not even fit. They will be burried at least 15 mm further under the fender than the stockers. If you want a cheap set of wheels that actually come in the right fitments, check out Axis. Do whatever it takes to cancel this order.

You spent 1800 for them?....there is some decent rims and some semi decent rims that will fit the Z perfect for that money...examples Rh rims ( J8s J5s). Ruff raceing... the list goes on all with the proper offsets and proper staggered sizes. Trust me bro i looked around for two months before I found what I wanted.

Man the wheels look good and all, but looking at Motegis site man, the sizing doesnt look good for you! You should really try to cancel this order somehow..
I know he cant get 275 tires, but what if he did get these wheels and got some spacers? You guys think that would help?

I am not a wheel elitist either. I don't care what you get as long as it fits the car. I think Motegi does make a few wheels (Touge?) that fit the Z and I believe some Ro_Ja wheels were outsourced through them.

So where did you get the Vertex replica kit? What material is it?
Cant wait to see some pics!
man, its gonna look nasty. +45 offset and 7.5 all around? you gotta do some research before you spend your hard earned money. the bolt pattern in the website doesn't even look right. seems like u bought rims for a FF car thats not even gonna fit. just fyi, our bolt pattern is 5X114.3, stock offset is +30 so anything higher is gonna look disgusting.
I was looking at the Touges, they're a decent looking rim, but they have the same problem, incorrect bolt patterns and offsets, at least according to their website. Though Tirerack says they come in the correct size, and I've seen images of them bolted up to the Z, so...who knows. I'll call before ordering.
You need to call the Goodyear guy and find out EXACTLY what he ordered for you, and maybe even call Motegi and confirm that they even carry that rim in what you need.

That doesn't matter homie..
How u gonna put 245/ front 275/ rear TIRES on
all four same size 7.5" WHEELS w/ 45mm OFFSET and look RIGHT?
Why are you keep on mentioning tire sizes only when your actual
WHEELS aren't right?
We all know that 245/275 tire size is the right setup for the Z...what
we're saying is that your WHEELS aren't the correct size..sigh
We're honestly trying to help you out here...
Give your Z some nice wheels it deserves...

It doesn't matter what pic we saw. Unless Motegi has come out with some new specs that aren't listed yet, these are not going to fit and look good. With all due respect to your tire guy, are you going to trust someone trying to sell you something or a fellow group of Z enthusiasts who want nothing but to see you with a proper sized set of wheels that look good? I have had 3 different sets of aftermarket wheels, seen 50+ sets in person, and hundreds if not thousands here on the boards. CANCEL THIS ORDER, I GUARANTEE YOU WON"T LIKE THEM WHEN YOU SEE THEM ON THE CAR. Style/Brand name has nothing to do with it, your car will look like a hovercraft if by some miracle they actually have enough clearance for your brakes.
