I occasionally find myself perusing wheels, but quickly get bored as I have zero comprehension as to what will fit and keep the Zed as close to OEM set up (aggro free) as possible. This guide is really helpful, thanks
To take me one step further (and see if I actually do understand) could someone check my maths and deductions below make sense please?
If the 350z Rays Wheels (5 stud, with a PCD of 114.3) and tyres are the following:
Front - Size: 18 x 8.0 - Offset: + 30 mm - Tyre: 225/45/18
Rear - Size: 18 x 8.5 - Offset: + 33 mm - Tyre: 245/45/18
A broadly agreeable "Good Looking" spacer combo for the RAYS is: Front 20mm - Rear 25mm
So by my fag packet maths, the aftermarket 18" wheel and tyre combo which MOST CLOSELY matches OEM spec, but fills the arches nicely works out at:
Front - Size: 18 x 8.0 - Offset: + 10 mm - Tyre: 225/45/18
Rear - Size: 18 x 8.5 - Offset: + 8 mm - Tyre: 245/45/18
Which makes the after market 19" wheel and tyre combo which MOST CLOSELY matches OEM spec, but fills the arches nicely:
Front - Size: 19 x 8.0 - Offset: + 10 mm - Tyre: 225/40/19
Rear - Size: 19 x 8.5 - Offset: + 8 mm - Tyre: 245/40/19
Yeah? Or am I confused and not factored in where the brembos fit or the arches or some other school boy error?
Thanks.
