Default horrible 370z Wheels????

I'm currently running the 370z sport package wheels on my z. Need tips and ideas on what to run. I'm looking for a small stretch look and the wheel sticking out a bit. Currently running 19x9 offset 47mm 235/35r19 in front but they stick in way too much it's crazy! I was thinking of running 25mm spacers?? Also in rear I'm running 19x10 offset 30mm 255/35r19 and they almost sit flush but i want it to stick out more, was thinking of running 15mm on rear?? What do you all think? I'm new to this so help and tips will be very appreciated. I am also lowered 1.25 on springs with no camber. Thanks

if you get spacers, get some that would put you about +15... so a 15 in the rear would be good and like a 25-30 in the front. on my car i have +15 in the rear and +23 on the front and i sit pretty flush with fenders

In my opinion if you have to run more than about 20mm spacer you should be looking at different wheels. Just my .02.

I would try to find a set of the wheels that actually came with the NISMO 350z, it looks awkward on your NISMO aero setup to be running 370z sport wheels

If you insist on running the wheels you will need at least a 20mm spacer all around to salvage the setup.

I would sell those wheels and go aftermarket, what is your budget if you did that?

You need the stock wheels back or run rpf1. Those 370z look out of place on a nismo.

I have them myself with 15mm spacers in the front only. I don't think they look bad, unfortunately most recent pics when Vortech blower went bad. Are yours gold or is that just the color filter?




Older pics.

How much did you find those wheels for and where?

I'm not having any luck on eBay or places like that. They are pricey. And I love these wheels.

please take your time with your selection...your first post is confusing. Post a pic of the "look" you're looking to achieve.

Don't put Varrs or any knock off wheels on the Nismo man. That's sacrilegious.
