Bash Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Hi all I’ve had my 07 350z for a few months now and have been trying to find the perfect aftermarket wheels. I’m Looking for a flush figment with the arches. I originally went with 7twenty style 57 in black, In 18x9.5 et15 and 18x10.5 et15 and planned to go for 255/40 and 275/40 tyres. But after test fitting the 10.5’s in the rear I realised they wouldn’t fit (aka be legal) without extending the arches. I then test fitted the 9.5s which seemed like they would just fit in the rear. I should’ve considered the offset in more depth. Now these wheels are going back, Any suggestions for similar style wheels? Or Wheel brands that offer flush fitment? Quote

Azurez33 Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I’ve got xxrs 18” from previous owner 9.5 on the front and 10 on the back they’re nice but I want to get rid of them and put my own choice of alloys on. 2 Quote
ShortPaul Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I think mk2 nismo rims would look amazing Quote

The G Man Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 Nismo Mk1 wheels, diamond cut wheels are gash, IMO Quote
ShortPaul Posted August 7, 2020 Posted August 7, 2020 I have new nismo v1 wheels on order but there's a bit of a wait for them Quote

msitpro Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) Most things from Advan's catalogue.... Optimal sizing would be 18x9.5 +15 front, 18x10.5 +25 rear in my experience, with 265/35/18 F and 285/35/18 R Edited August 10, 2020 by msitpro Quote
Ian Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Volk CE28N (19x9.5/10/5 ET22) Enkei RPF1 (18x9.5/10.5 ET15) Advan RZII below, would love to see a set of these on a Z 1 Quote
Ben–350Z Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Sounds like you've got something very similar to what I had with my Rota GTR-Ds: 18x9.5 et25 front with 5mm spacer, 18x10 et12 rear, with 255/40 and 275/40 tyres. Never had any issues with legality. Rear fit: Still got the wheels, if you'd be interested... Quote
HEADPHONES Posted August 10, 2020 Posted August 10, 2020 Quite a few members are running Nismo LMGT4 rims. These fit the 350z really nicely. The design gives a small lip with the spokes coming back out from the lip to aid in a look that's flush with the bodywork. Also they seem to hold their value well and come resale don't take long to sell on. They pop up now and again used for about £1200 2 Quote
