Hey guys, got my new wheels and wondering if I could get some advice on tires. I am more of a fat tire guy, but figured i'd change up the look.
By some of your standards this isn't very aggressive but negative offsets and no spacers was really my goal. Don't want to necessarily do a fender pull so I kept that in mind when I was wheel shopping.
18x9 -4 245/35
18x10 -5 265/35
That's what the specs of the wheels on the car currently are. The tires are awful so it's time for new ones...
I met up w/ a buddy of mine that works at Discount Tire (only place in town to do reverse mounting) he suggested for a slight stretch
225/40
265/35
Thoughts??

I'm also debating running 285/35 & 245/35 if I decide against the stretch look.

Thanks, sorry for the noob question but this is new to me!

LOL, he suggested that a 265 on a 10 would have a stretch? not even close. if you are looking for a slight stretch then you probably want a 235/40. he got the size for the 9's right though.

Why don't you go with a 235/35 front and 245/35 rear, that will give you a very slight stretch, and if you decide to stay meaty you can always move the 245/35 to the front and just buy new rears?? You can always look up wheel specs/stretch on rimtuck.com that'll give you a better idea

Default need help with fitting work meisters on =(

hi guys,

i've got some 18x10 and 18x12 3pc work meisters.
the rear ones have 265 35 18s on them but the front ones currently have no tyres fitted on,
i'm running on stock 18" wheels at the moment.

I want to put those work meisters on but can anyone give me some technical advice of what needs to be done to be able to run it,

I know i need front camber arms, any recommended brands? but what sizes wheels should i use for the fronts? and what else do i need to do to be able to run on them.

My 350z is a track version with brembo brakes (needs 10mm spacers to clear brembos for 18x10)

p/s i have tried fitting them on and the fronts are sticking out fender/guard by 1.5-2cms roughly and the rears by 2-2.5cms roughly

here are the pics
