cooley Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Hi, I have a 04 almost stock 350z. I decided to run 255/40/18 square tires and going to order a new set of RPF1, What size of wheels fit perfect on these tires? And what offset should i get? I want them sightly inside the fenders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want them sightly inside the fenders Dont get square tyres. It will totally mess up the TCS and more than likely the handling. ET20-25 will be fine but depends on wheel widths too.

AliveBoy Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Surely it would be better to buy the wheels you want then adjust the tyres to fit? Not the other way around? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Why do you want to run a square setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT4 Zed Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 To increase oversteer or reduce understeer Though I'm pretty sure the op wants to do this for looks It would not affect TCS if the tyre rolling radius is within 2.5% of OEM for both axles.

pjf1985 Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 (edited) I'm running RPF1's and have this fitment which I personally think is spot on... Fronts: 9.5J ET15 on 225/45/18 tyres Rears: 10.5J ET15 on 245/45/18 tyres Tyres have a bit of stretch, not sure if thats what you want though? Should be 245 front and 265 rear recommended sizes I think. Edited December 29, 2014 by pjf1985 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 I like pjf's set up as above but personally OP I'd go for the 245 front and 265 rear as he recommends (not much stretch then), ...or possibly even a 275 on the rear as I prefer the staggered set up with nice wide rear tyres as it look's more "muscle" car imo. I'm currently running 245/35/19 ET20 front and 275/35/19 ET20 rear with Rota alloys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooley Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 I am thinking 18x9.5 +15 all around, the best set up as i heard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrt Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Currently running 255/19 front and 275 /19 rear on the 9.5 j and 10.5 j Those are the minimum widths recommended and should satisfy modded setup for insurance purposes. Fit well and just make legal tolerance on the arches .Also fitted Tein lowering springs 15 m front 20 rear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks great, however 245 is the minimum tyre size for a 9.5" rim and also the preferred choice for the 350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
