Found some wheels that will fit. 18x9.5 Konig +35 offset.

Will a 275 square setup fit ok at stock ride height with those dimensions?

Going to run that size for autocross.

 

Which Konigs? Was watching the guys at the tire shop mount up some Hypergrams this morning. Nice wheels, very light, strong.

Offset is a little high but will likely sit about 10-12mm outwards from stock (higher width). 9.5, you can go down to about +20mm without any fender issues.

On tires, 275-what? 35 or 40? Yes, width is width but height on a 40 might give some issues up front. Remove the liner bolt if there's rubbing; that's where the most contact is going to be. If you run 275/35, you'll be fine.

 

Konig Freeform in bronze. 18 x 9.5 . Has 235 now, but 275/35/18

 

In Bronze on my Daytona Blue ZR

 

A hardtop roadster?

Sorry - couldn't resist.

 

Smart ***!

Only damn picture I could find.

 

Lol. I like that color with the DB. As Wheel King Mic said, the offset is kind of high, but if you plan on keeping the wheels for a while or want to swap them over to other vehicles, you'll have more versatility.

 

Keeping them forever according to my wife.

 

Looks good. Now to get the 275 Kenda

 

The OO of the wheels had them on his 370Z - he used spacers for the rear. He gave them to me. If you look at the pics I posted, it pushed the rears to where they are just about flush.

I am going to order the Kenda Kaiser KR20A tires. eBay has them really well priced at 500 a set of 4 with shipping included. I figured at 300 treadwear, I could use them for both Street and Autocross and be able to buy several sets for the cost of one set of Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Even if they aren't as good. Though the reading I've done has been almost ALL positive. Good treadlife with EXCELLENT grip, almost like a 200 Treadwear tire.

So, the fronts are where I need to be aware of rubbing issues. Will keep a lookout - but will go with your size recommendation of 275/35/18 to minimize any chances of rubbing

 

Just one caution.... do you have VDC? If so, a 275/35 square setup may upset that with no height delta F-R (wheel speed differential). Be sure to disable VDC if you autocross-only on them. If you run them on the street with VDC, this might be an issue. Disable at switch, but to do it right, fully disable: https://my350z.com/forum/engine-driv...bling-vdc.html (amongst other threads here.)

 

front won’t rub on the outside, and you can easily add a 10mm spacer. The rear shouldn’t rub will a 25mm spacer is added

 

No VDC, just TCS so a square setup is fine. I ran a square setup 245 40 17 on 17 x 8 stock wheels on the street as well as autocross

So, no VDC just TCS

 

The tires did NOT CLEAR the uprights. Had to use a 25mm spacer.

Ended up using 30mm in the rear to make it look even.

 

DS - you can see that I am replacing the door handle.

 

And the rear is rubbing slightly on the outside when I hit a bump. Going to switch out the 30mm spacers to 25mm spacers tonight.

Dammit, it's always something.

 

Damn the bronze looks killer on daytona

 

Swapped out the spacers, now no rubbing - it was only doing it on one bridge on my drive to work due to the undulations caused by the expansion joints on the bridge. Drove it the last two days and no ill effects.

And the door handle is replaced, no more ghetto style opening the car from the pax side.

 

Funny thing, Bro. When my wife and I went to pick up the wheels, she's like whatever.

After mounting the wheels, she's like, yeah you're right, it looks good. Especially after I got some real meats on the wheels instead of the 225's that were stretched to fit on the wheels. Made it look like rubber bands on the wheels.
