Holy sunken fitment! You need at least 40mm spacers for those to look decent. Sell them and buy wheels that fit

25mm is as big as you can go and you would have no problems with using them.

ideally you would want 40mm in the front and 45mm in the rear but no one makes those.

You bought the wrong wheels. Not even remotely suitable for the 350Z. Go to jail. Do not pass GO. Do not collect $200.

Sounds like they would fit on my old mazda6. Don't run spacers. Sell the wheels to someone who owns a sports sedan, then buy the proper fitment.

From what I've read on PIAA's website, I think the offsets are huge because you have a large lip... how large are the lips on the wheels? Take in consideration for that and measure the distance of the lip to the fender.

If I'm thinking correctly, because of that lip, I think you'll just need 20mm (F) & 25mm (R) spacers to make them flush to the fender, if anybody has experience with these, pls correct me if I'm wrong.

I'd check out the forum for people who have Rozza's or CarDomain . com and ask them what they did to make them flush. There's a couple of peeps who have them here and they look very clean on the Z... GL on finding info.

Nope, He's gonna need HUGE spacers. Something like 60mm front/rear. Not sure where you can even get ones that big. Probably have to go with 2.5" ones.

See, you had to take into consideration the lip proportion to the offset, because I was considering those wheels also, but damn for 750... I would've jumped on those myself.. Great Buy.. post pics!

Oh yeah, no prob bro...

Even with spacers, 19x8 +15 / 19x9 +20 is nowhere near aggressive. Post some pics. That's still weak as hell.
