Opinion on 370z rims for sedan
I found a set of 370z anniversary edition rims for a good price and am considering picking them up to put on my sedan.
I'm really not a big fan of the 18" sport rims that came with the car so I'm looking for something a little different. I have NO plans to lower the car at any point and would like to stick with 18's or 19's for a smoother ride.
My car is graphite shadow, so pretty similar to the coloring of the anniversary wheels. Only real concern is that the wheels won't sit flush on the sedan due to the offset in the back. I know they'll fit, but I searched and can't find any info on a side profile shot.
The two front wheels are 19x9 with offset 47. The rear wheels are 19x10 with offset 30.
some examples I found:

what do you think, good option or not?
Thanks!

Definitely get it! IMO i think they look great on the sedan. There are a couple members on here that have them on their car. Wheels will sit really flush which is great because you wont need spacers. Though the rear will have a little poke so you'll need to run a slightly stretched tire and have some negative camber in the rear. I'd get them if I were you.

Hmm, I wonder if he'd let me test fit the rear on my car. You said I might have to run negative camber/stretched tire, do you think the tires that come stock on the 370z would fit?
I'm not sure if I want to run negative camber, would require a kit wouldn't it? Also would increase tire wear I imagine. If I mounted them up, how would I be able to tell if I need the stretched tire/camber kit? Bounce the trunk up and down and see if the tire rubs anything?
Appreciate the advice!

If you're on stock suspension, you'll probably rub. Worse if you have passenger(s) or stuff in the trunk.

Love the setup, did you have to run a negative camber in the rear? Also curious about the spacer, I've heard you have to consistently re-tighten the spacer or it might come loose, have you had any issues?

Without a drop, those rears will be rather aggressive. As san~man mentioned, probably rub too. At the least, you'll want to add some camber. The fronts, again, without a drop, will be a bit tucked in.
Just put the 370z wheels on my car... - G35Driver
As for the fronts, compared to my old set-up of 8.5 +35, your 370z fronts at stock height would retract by another 6mm compared to this.
