Do the 19s and tires close up the wheel wells pretty well, with out a drop?

No. In fact, without a drop it could look worse than stock. Lower offset than stock means the tire is pushed closer to the fender, meaning that the tire-to-fender gap can actually become more apparent.
If the tires are sized properly, their outer diameter (rolling diameter) should be very close to the OEM tire rolling diameter. This means little to no change in the tire-to-fender gap in the vertical direction. Meanwhile, the 19" tire will have a shorter side profile (side wall) than the stock 18" tires, because the wheel is 1" larger in diameter.

The combination of adding relatively wider and/or lower offset 19" wheels and tires without lowering the car will likely lead to the "4x4" look that various members here have been flamed for having. I happen to agree that the car should be lowered first, then wheels and tires upgrade, assuming you are planning to do both at some point and it has to be done in series instead of at the same time.

Let me hear your opinions so i can make a choice!





Is this black 350z dropped aswell?

Default Need Help With Picking VMR 710 Wheels

I'm going with 19 x 9.5 in the front and the rear will be 19 x 11 I'm wanting to go with a very nice Concave look. Little concave in the front and a reasonable nice concave in the back. I need help with which finish to go with on my Silverstone 350z. The colors are Hyper Silver, Gunmetal, Matte Black I can't figure which to go with. Also The P.C.D should be 5 X 112 correct?
