Default Identify these wheels from japan.

‎19x9.5/10 5x114.3 -1/-12 $1800 with tires, a friend found these in japan for me. anyone have a guess as to which brand they are.

And also how will they fit on my 07 350z.

No idea, and they won't fit without considerable fender/suspension/camber work

The lug pattern will fit the Z. The offsets will allow it to clear the brakes.

As Waizzz said you will need suspension/camber/fender work or a combination of all three to make it fit.

When I had 10.5 -15 in the rear on my car I had pulled my fenders with a 275/35 tire on I had to run -5 /-6 rear camber or something ridiculous. I didnt do all my research before buying and ended up selling the rims because I wasnt happy. Now I run a 10.5 285/35 +10 and still have the pull in my fenders. (about .5 inches) and run -2 camber.

With offsets like that check the stretched tires thread. They run those ridiculous offsets.

Then the question is academic. Lots of members enjoy "What wheels are these?" threads. I will pass.

ha im sure you know brady and chase pretty well ha, i met them through lakeman.

If they're works they should have have "raysforged" stamped into the lip between the spokes some where, or a rays sticker on the inside of the lip with the offsets and stuff.

offset does not determine caliper clearance

Works shouldn't have any RAYS markings on them... If they do, they're not Works.
