Talking noob question on staggered wheels...

i got my hands on a set of 19" staggered wheels, i wanted to make sure if they fit the 350z's and g35's throughout all the years and trims before i plan to sell on the forum or put them up on ebay... i dont want no problems with midleading info.

Front: 19 x 8.5 / +24 offset / 5.658 backspacing
Rear: 19 x 10 / +40 offset / 7.038 backspacing

if yes, will it need spacers and tire recommendation size?

Thank You.

It really depends on what rim and face design you have. But based on the offsets, it should be fine (generally speaking).

Thank You.

With the offset listed above, it should fit fine but its conservative setup so I would recomend spacer or just get the wheels with correct/better offset. If you insist on getting the wheels with the offset listed above, I would put 5mm in the front and 15 mm for the rear.

As for tires, I would recomend 245-35-19 for the front and 275-35-19 for the rear. You can also go with 255-35-19 and 285-35-19 but you will loose little bit of performance due to the diameter of the tires.

Don't know what look you are going for, but with 40mm offset, your back wheels will have a "tucked in" look. Like ssk said, may want to look into some spacers. Good Luck

EDIT: Here is a member w/ a +40offset on his rear 19x9.5. wheels to give you an idea of the look.
