Default I need help with a certain tire size??

Can I stagger my 2007 350Z "Euth" with a tire size combination of 235/40/18 front and 255/35/18 rear? Will this work and I don't track. It's for daily driving. I just want to go slightly wider to look better and I will take any suggestion. Thanks!

Nope, the front tire will be 0.4" taller than the rear. It will cause problems with TCS. In general, keep the profile the same, 235/40 & 255/40 makes the rear 0.6" taller which is within the acceptable stagger range.

35 in back is gonna leave more wheel gap unless your lowered but that set up will work I'm pretty sure

It will not look better, try 245/40 front and 245/45 rears.

If your car is an 06 or newer , run 265/40 rears

I have a few pairs of 255/35s for the front if you want to make a square set-up. Your speedo will be off regardless.
