Ok, here it goes:

2003 350Z Touring
Stock Suspension
FI/440 whp

Work Meister S13P (matte black/polished) (THANKS TO TIM!)
Front 19 x 9.5 +17 (T disk-Max BBK clearance)
Rear 19 x 11 +17 (O disk-Max Lip)

I am rolling the fenders, but not wanting to do a fender pull. I also plan on a drop, once I see how this setup settles in.

I would like to get as much meat on these as i can wothout rubbing, scraping, of course.


I guess I was considering:

Front 265/35/19
Rear 295/35/19

LMK what you guys think?

Sounds good to me! I ordered my Meisters a few weeks ago, Fronts are 10 wide, rears are 11 wide.

In theory it sounds very good, however, in reality, I think there are very few brands that make 295/35/19. If you don't mind the limitation of those brands then you're set. If not, I recommend a 265/30/19 & 295/30/19 or fatter at 275/30/19 & 305/30/19.

Wow, 275/305? And this can be pulled off with rolled fenders on a stock suspension? If so, that's exciting!

Pulled the trigger on the 265/30/19 & 295/30/19. I pick up the Meister's tomorrow!

You should be quite happy.

Get an alignment immediately or you'll be VERY unhappy.

Then post flics.

Alignment, check! They are here!

I had the same wheel setup with a roll. 285 and 245 and with a drop I rubbed a tiny bit. To run those size tires and a drop a slight flare with a proper fender roller should be sufficient. I guess it depends on if you plan on camber setup too.

I dunno. After tires, tpms, bands, alignment, blah blah blah, I'll see how it goes. But, pretty sure a drop would be in order! When I get the fenders rolled, I'll see what my body guy says about needing a flair. I really want to avoid a respray.

No flAre needed imo

whered you buy those wheels from?

derekinthez

iTrader: (32)

I bought them from Tim, not a vendor! Can you still get Work products now with everything going on in Japan?

imo you should pick up some nismo suspension or tein h-tech's to round your look.

you're gonna need about 3.5 degrees of negative camber with your drop to fit 295's and a +17 offset. that also depends on the amount of drop... i'm on meister's and mine is a 19x11 +19 in the rear. i have rolled fenders, 255/35/19's stretched, stance lx+ coilovers dropped quite a bit (and fully stiff), and -3.2 camber to make it not rub. i was rubbing the tires on my coilovers and on the inside of my fender with 285/30/19's

and i want to go lower with a more aggressive offset.




my front's haven't given me any issues. i have the same wheel specs as you with 245/35/19's on there.

ok, here it is. I'll get some better pics when she's washed! Going to get Stoptech Front BBK on in the a.m. Then, off to the paint shop (cf hood has to be painted, rear bumper replacement, two dings and my drivers' side mirror where a detailer buffed away my paint, rear fenders rolled).

350Z_Al

Nice! I love the way the Meister's hug the brakes. I can't wait to get mine with my Brembo's behind

Any more pics of yours?

Sick wheels bro, my all time favorites by far!

iTrader: (32)

Hopefully, I can get some good shots with my camera phone today. If so, will post them up! Still no paint on the CF hood yet -- BBK took longer than expected b/c I was stupid and didn't realize the lock key had to be orientated a certain way to go onto the lugs--anyway got it done. Alignment scheduled at 2 this afternoon -- then she goes for paint!

I'm running the 265/35 on the front and 295/35 on the rear. I'm thinking of a modest drop of no more than 1.2 inches all around. Should put the wheel/tire right at or below fender heigth. As soon as I finish saving up for the rear bbk, then off to the coilovers or lowering springs, idk.
