I got a 2005 Touring 350Z, 5AT (don't hate me!) so i got the stock 17's. Would uping my wheels to 18's and putting on the nismo rims cause any problems? would it cause any problems with my speedometer/mpg readings? Thanks

answer is no to both of your questions. the plus is they will look alot better than those 17's (i have an enthusiast with the LMGT-4)

Steve is correct and the Staff Sergeant is wrong. The outer diameter, if the correct size tires are used, will remain almost the same as your stock tire and wheel combo. Do it, they look great. The tires you should use are 245/40/18 and 275/40 18, front and rear.

Thats a big NEGATIVE on the Nismo wheels causing a problem with your speedometer. Just use the right tire sizes and you will be fine.
Sounds like a plan...thanks guys... :thumbsup:
I am going to have to agree with everyone also excpet for sgt. I think they are some of the cleanest looking, lightest rims you can buy for the Z.
okay okay use the right size tires to offset the differance in size and the speedometer shouldn't be an issue. You are right everyone and YES ssgt is wrong.
