Question Wheel Questions?

I want to get this wheels on my 350z and since i dont want to spend a lot of cash for expensive wheels, i can conform to these on this link:
http://www.xxrwheels.com/sportmax_962.shtml#

I want to get them 9.5 all around with the 3.25 inch lip. The offset is also 35mm. I want to know if this wheels will fit my 350z fine and what size tires you guys can recommend for me, measurement wise?

I really like the design on the wheels and the price is perfect for me, i just need to know if they'll clear fine or if i ned to get spacers for them. If I do need to get spacers will 5mm spacers in the front and 10m spacers in the rear clear everything fine and can i just bolt the spacers up without having to do my lug screws again? Please help me out.

They're gonna be sunken in a bit, especially the back. Personally, I wouldn't get them. You're gonna be spending $6-700 for the set of rims and another, let's say, $800 for decent tires. Just use that money and browse the private classified section and jump on a set of nice, used wheels. Oh, and I forgot, you'll probably be spending upwards of $200 if you get spacers in the front and rear.

Not to mention the extra $200 you will spend on spacers.

Use a offset calculator to compare your current wheels to the new wheels. With the new dimensions, check the car with a tape. Do you clear the suspension, brakes calipers and fenders? Reference: http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp

Just get some Rotas, in the end they will be maybe $100 to $200 more, but have proper fitment. Look up MB wheels, they have nice 350z fitting wheels for about the same price as Sportmax.
