BTW when I purchased my 350Z Nismos they were in pretty good shape, but they had a few spots that needed to be touched up, including some light curb rash on one wheel. I took them to a wheel repair guy and he made them look as good as new for not a lot of money.

yeah I'm waiting for a little extra cash that's coming my way to send them to get them touch up. 3/4 wheels are rashed. I don't get it aren't ppl careful when they Park? I've had my Volks and I've only gotten one 1" long rash on the rear wheel in 7 years I've had these wheels.

I know what you mean. I have only ever curbed one wheel in my 30 plus years of driving, and that was while I was turning through a drive through lane where the curbing stuck our way past where the drive thru window was located so you couldn't get very close to the window without hitting the curb.

Haven't been very active lately. Was just scrolling around and decided to contribute. Got my Japan spec LMGT4 re-powdercoated black last year. Looking all clean and fresh.

Got the wheels mounted. I used the firestone wide oval 285/35/19 I had on my Volks and I got bridgestone potenza re050 265/40/19 on the fronts. Im in love with with my z all over again hehe, I needed a change. I do find the front tires aspects ration to be a little too tall. Oh well too late now, I think next time I should get 35 a/s, what do you guys think?
I'm also gonna have to dial in the of sets with some 10 or 15 mm spacers both front and back. I'm used to the flush tires with my Volks the rolled fenders look a little funny. Anyways here is a pic enjoy

Looks good, very classy setup

I wouldn't bother with spacers since it already looks good

I agree with Waiz!

I never would have thought about Nismo 350Z wheels on a Solar Orange Z, but it looks great.

Nothing like making a change to your Z to make you really appreciate the car all over again.

thanks I'm fine with it now but once I get the right tires up front it's gonna show more gap.

me either but I started looking at the nismo pic thread I started to fall in love with the oem wheels they have a grest design, plus they are forged and light. I weighted the fronts at 18 lbs and the rears at 24 With no tpms and center caps.

Yes my z it's whole life has slept outside. I now live in a gated community for the past year. Before that though it slept under a tree with a car cover on.

I've Googled this to death.

Does anyone know the offsets for the 2015 NISMO 370Z wheels?

I want to pick up a set for my 350Z, and based on what I've read about other NISMO wheels, the rear wheels should fit without spacers, but the front is where I'll need them.





On another note, I've noticed that most members agree that 350Zs require 20mm spacers up front for other 370 NISMO wheels, yet others use smaller spacers or none at all. Others claim that fender rolling for the rear is necessary. What's the deal here?
