How flush do you wanna get? For the front, I would suggest at least a 15-20mm spacer... Honestly for the rear wheels, you would need like a 30mm spacer to get it flush, IMHO... On top of that, you say that your dropped 2 inches? Well how is your camber looking like? Do you have a camber kit?

https://my350z.com/forum/media-share...-z33xae86.html

he is running the 521's and lowered but not sure how much, but you will definitely need spacers
i say 25mm fronts and 30mm in rears
tire sizes 245.40.18 rears 265.40.18 or 275.40.18
or you can go on 35 series profile depending on your style.

The fronts will look a lot like stock. The rears will be better, but both could use a spacer.

The first specs you posted won't be flush, it all depends what the term means to you as well.

What size tires will you be using?

Search is your friend..

here is my 03, with a 245/40/18 F and 275/40/18 setup.


FRONT OFFSET 30

REAR OFFSET 25


I need to lower it a bout an inch or inch 1/2 and get some spacers up front. But outside of that looks great I think!

Not worth it, even with spacers you will still have crappy XXR wheels.
