Who Has 350z 18's On There R33

[mickr33]

Hey guys. Just purchased some 350z 18's and would like to know what the

widest tyre i could go on the rear due to the offset they have. I was hoping

to get a 265/35/18 for the rear's but not sure if i would run into any trouble.

Any help would be appreaciated. Thank's

I think they're 8" wide so 265's are wide for that rim. Shouldn't have problems with a 235 width tyre.

bridgestone potenza so3 on the front, very expecive

Falken ziex on the rear bout $250 each.

less than 50% tread no traction reving out in second gear

otherwise 255s give excelent grip.

[Duncan]

yeah but they are crap tyres on the rear....falken 326 = cheap but terrible.

I've just put 255/45/18 falken fk451s on my z rims they fit and grip very well

[mickr33]

Hey Duncan. Do you think i will fit 265's under the 33? Also what sort of price are the Falkens you have.

Ive rung a couple of places and the options so far are: Maxxis Mav's $318, Sumitomo $310 and the

Hankook K104's for $300 each. All these were in a 265/35/18.

[Duncan]

sorry mate not sure on fitting under a 33 I have them on my Z.

They were 250ea from Tempe tyres in 255/45/18...damn cheap for such a good tyre
