owner's manual:

http://www.courtesyparts.com/nissan-...issan-350Z.pdf

see page 252 for stock offsets.

you'll need to use the calculators posted above to figure out what offsets you want, since stock is less-than-optimal, to say the least.

by the way, width is the determinant for offsets, not diameter/height.
