You want the ones that say 5x114, but I’m not sure what offset you’d need.

Do some research and find out what your bolt pattern/offset is. It should take you about 40 seconds if this isn’t your first time using a computer.

4

ya its the 5x114…as for offset i have no idea

it all depends on the look your going for, aggressive vs non aggressive, coils vs stock suspension etc. thatll help you pick the width and offset you want to go for. i know if you want to be aggressive that z’s take super low offsets close to 0. then you can also pick your size tires

7

350z can go super wide and low offset.

the most aggressive wheels there are the 18x8+18 / 18x9+21

these are less aggressive than stock… a downgrade.

stock on a 2008 Z is wider and similar offset if you have the track wheels

in other words… you need / want wider and lower offset than anything on that page.

yeah most z cars run 0 or negative offset with no problems. please dont run weak sawce 40mm wheels

http://raderwerks.com/product/rs-8-0 I’m thinkin these in 19’s but now i just dont know what offset to get : \

I want agressive for sure and stock suspension for now

10

19x8.5 F / 19x10.5 R
5x114
ET18 F / ET25 R

Out of those options this would be your best bet it looks like

11

thanks man, so will that offset have the tires sticking out or tucked in nicely ?

12

For that I am not 100% sure for a 350Z. I run a 9.5" wide wheel on a +35 and it is pretty flush but it is on a FD RX7 so I really can’t compare.

13

you should really check out my350z. I am sure there is a wheel fitment thread over there that should give you a good idea of how they’ll look.

14

Those are less than ideal offset, please get some non-shitty wheels… or you need some major spacers to get as close to ET0 as possible

15

What are the stock offsets and widths?

16

Rear: 18x8.5 ET33
Front: 18x8 ET30

17

http://raderwerks.com/product/rs-8-0 so for these wheels what will work and look flush.

18

there is nothing on that page that will be flush. guys run 10"+ front and rear with zero or negative offsets with no problem. get away from raderwerks unless you want 25+mm of spacers

19

i think this is a wild goose chase to be honest. Most car owners do not understand this stuff and could not give good advice… especially the guys on my350z, or 350z owners in general from my experience. Most people are fitment novices.

your wheels are only half the fitment battle. Tire size, adjustable suspension (coilovers & suspension arms), spacers and fenders all play significant roles. Wheel specs are just the base and they determine how much work the other items need to do in order to achieve optimal fitment.

If you get the wheels in 8.5 +18 and 10.5 +25 you will have a fair bit of work to do up front but nothing insurmountable. The rears will require less work. I would think a 10mm spacer up front and the necessary coilover / adj. arms to get your alignment right would be the minimum required to get a satisfactory fitment / driveability set up.

you’ll also likely want to run slightly wider tires than stock and if you run wider and slightly taller you can cut some wheel gap that way too.

thanks for all the help guys. Im thinkin i’m gonna go with these http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=5664 actually made for the Z and good offset.
