Default Will this rim size my 235/50/17 tires?

I'm about to purchase some Voxx Torino rims for an outstanding price the only thing is I'm a little bit unsure if they would fit without purchasing different tires and/or 2 rims for more than I'm getting the whole set of 4 for. I don't want to make my tires "bubble" or anything like that, or make the car sway. They are 17x7.5 with at 40mm offset. They should fit my fronts which are running 225/50/17 with a 17x7.5, I'm just worried about the back not fitting because there running 17x8 on a 235/50/17 any help?

He's not hating at all. It's a horrible offset for the car. Stocks are at 33, this is even worse. Also they're 7.5 width. Wayyyyy too small for the z. I have 8 wide and it feel the need for wider tires. He's not hating cause they're cheap, he's telling you that it's not smart or good for the car.

Well than let me just ask what rims would look good and be a perfect fit??? And any z can have an offset between 18-47.. So 44 wouldn't rub at all? I've called 2 or 3 tire places in town and they all said they would fit perfect just re-assuring myself before I pull the trigger on getting these rims..

They'll fit, but look terrible. Without massive spacers, they are gonna sink into the well too much. Rubbing isn't an issue. And before you go shooting your mouth off at the others, they don't take to newbs too kindly, especially in a situation like this. Pass on the wheels, keep the stocks and save up for a better offset and width. If you go too small or narrow, your VDC and speedo will be off as well.

The other members here have given you great advice yet your responses show quite some butthurt. You're going to need way thicker skin to last on this forum.

+44 is not for the Z and even if it does fit, it will look worse than turd with flies on it.

Just FYI Advanz33 has 3k+ wheels with proper specs and Zerafian has a Chargespeed front rolling on Volks.

Appreciate that man, most of the dudes on here don't even get off the computer to drive there vehicle, but there so quick to bash questions. I've called about 2-3 places now and asked if they would fit properly and one guy told me he was running a 17x7 on a 235/40/17. So they should be just fine ftw

I guess you did not detect the sarcasm you *** hat. Those places you called were probably a bunch of parts hangers that do not know crap about sizes/offsets.

This isn't the site to start $hit. How old are you? By the name and how you're talking, sounds like you're young and just immature. Whatever shops you called, never go to them for anything. They don't know what they're talking about. Its too narrow for this car. Stop acting tough behind a keyboard and learn about your car.

I called 2 discount tire co's, and 2 pep boys auto center, 3 wheel and tire shops and they all said they would fit. So I'm guessing YOU don't know crap about your your z.
Keep it coming little girls it's turning me on!

Acting tough as you continue to smack talk? Lmao your hilarious.
And it's pretty tough to learn about my car when *** clowns like you just discourage op's when they ask simple questions. Keep going to your little hole in the wall tire shops bud, I'll stick with what the pros say at discount tire that have been running a business for 30+ years nation wide.
