Bought SSR wheels need advice
Well, this is my first post lol. I need some help. I bought some wheels 18x10 -3 and 18x11 -16. Was wondering what tire size would look good on those widths and will I need to run camber ? Going for a stretched style but nothing crazy . I was thinking 225/40 and 255/35 but I don't know if that will be a balanced look. Thanks in advance

And yes, you'll need to camber down or stretch. And keep an eye on those wheel bearings.

Can only surmise yer goin' for stance/poke versus actual performance with those sizes and offsets.

Somewhere in that neighborhood I'd guess.
But here, do the math... https://my350z.com/forum/tire_rim_calculator.php
Never mind, for kicks just ran the #s...
Front will stick out 58.4mm from OEM, Rear, 80.75mm. Now go get a steel rule and visualize for yourself.

Do I measure from the most outer part of the rim. If so that's what I'll be looking at (3.18 inches, just before the quarter mark)

You'll need a pulled fender and some decent camber to make it look anywhere near normal. Thinking around 5 degrees with the 255 and a serious pull. The fronts will need a baby pull as well. Your tire sizes seem fine, but I would stick with either a 40 or 35 series tire for both
