g37 with 370z wheels *not 56k friendly*

Is this possible?

(photochop ftw)


I want to get a G37, but I don't like the stock rims. I do like the sport wheels on the 370z.

I know that they are the same bolt pattern, but is the offset similar enough for it to work.

Has anyone tried this? Searching didn't come up with anything.

The 350Z and G35 swapped wheels back and forth no problem. I dont see why the 370Z and G37 can't.

cool.

The rear wheels of the 370z look much wider and seem to have a larger offset to make up for the flaring of the body. i wouldn't want the tire to come out of the wheel well on the G very far if at all.

Found the specs for the 370z wheels

front - 19x9, +47
rear - 19x10, +30

Yes they will fit. Probably pretty flush too.

Try photoshopping on a different picture and it might look better. Those wheels look kind of aggressive for a G.

daamn thats so messed up, the Z gets a 1" wider rear wheel ?? daaang! what specs are the non sport brake Z's ? i know they have 18s but are they 18x10 ? that would be a sweet drag wheel for us.

That was kinda the idea. I think the wheels that are stock are too plain. I was after the more aggressive look.

I dont see why not. SO gay how they gave the G 245's stock in the rear and I think the 370z comes with like 275s rear and 245s front stock. They get all the love.

those are just the sport 19s. the 18s are still 8.5/9 or something like that.

Here is a really quick and dirty from another angle at a higher rez. I'm really liking the potential.

I like them. You should do one with the Nismo Z wheels too. Those things are SICK
