How Much Effort To Fit 370z Rims To V35 Coupe?

Hey guys,

I have been offered a set of Rays Forged 370z rims and tyres for very cheap.

I have been trying to see if they will fit on my 03 V35 coupe. I have checked the G35 forums, and there seems to be conflicting information about what needs to be done. Some state that the wheels will fit fine on the G35 coupe (but the sedans need their guards rolled etc), others that they will stick out or need work done to fit.

Has anyone tried this? I think the issue is that the rears are 19x10.5. When I was looking into buying aftermarket rims, I was advised that 20x10.5 should fit through Bob Jane and Ian Diffen, as well as chronic customs in WA (they said the wheels would fit a Ford, therefore should fit a Skyline).

Is anyone able to confirm any of this? The wheels are simply too cheap to pass up!

Cheers,

Cam

I have seen them on a mates v35, the rears will fit just fine mate but the fronts will need spacers as they are like +45 offset and will sit way too inside the guard compared to the rears, so depends if you dont mind running spacers, they will look good. :)

It depends on which rims they are. These are the 3 types available for 370Zs below (according to a Google search). Even the "Nismo" ones are only 10.5 +23 in the rear, which will fit easily as long as you have tyres with a little bit of stretch, and will fit very easily if you have rear camber arms to tilt them in a bit. But yes, at 9.5 +40 the fronts will need 20-30mm spacers to sit anywhere near flush. To be honest, if you are after reasonably flush, then the rears will need 20mm spacers also.

Base:
18x8 +43 front, 18x9 +15mm rear
225-50-18/245-45-18 Yokohama ADVAN Sport
17x4 spare, T145/80D17

Interesting, have been told they are 19x9.5 F/19x10.5 R but no mention of them being Nismo ones. If they are, then bonus! And to be fair, if they don't fit, I know I could get a lot more for them than what I'm paying :)

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
