Hey folks got a steal of a deal on some wheels and wanted to see how much of a clearance issue will I have in the rear. I'm currently dropped on Swifts.
Thanks I do see it displayed a message saying it doesn't fit with the oem tire specifications but they gave me a set of square tires 245/35r20. Does a square set up matter for a rwd? What's the pros and cons , my current set up is staggered

I'm going to guess this is for a coupe. Fronts will be fine, may have some rubbing in the rear with those tires depending on your camber.

Square on a RWD will cause oversteer, if that sort of thing matters to you. Personally, I'd keep with the stagger if you can.

I have a 2012 G37S Sedan, currently in natural camber. Was hoping I didn't have to upgrade once I install the wheels.
Will they fit G37x Sedan? I plugged in the numbers, +1.8 inches of poke in the rear, so not sure...
Took me a minute to get the swift springs installed (pain in the A) and wheels on... but after a bunch of hours of work... Nom Nom Nom...! Rear poke a tad bit more then I would like, but they are growing on me, and fronts deff need spacers, going to try the 20mm spacers people have recommended for the fronts, but part of me says I should get 10mm's...
Swift Springs and 370z's.... '12 G37x

Thank you! My cousin has a fender roller so if push come to shove I'd roll them a bit to make sure the tuck. If the weather clears up I'll have them on by the end of the week.

Nice job! Do you have a pic running down the side? If the rear poke doesn't completely grow on you you could always go w/a 235/40 265/35 tire combo to give you a little relief back there when those tires are ready to be replaced.
Hard to argue w/ the quality and weight savings of those Forged Z wheels, glad you took the leap
Here's the poke of the 370z in the rear... Everyone i've talked to love it, but i'm still unsure. 12 G37x Sedan w/ 370z Sport Rays 275/35/19 +30
What camber spec are you at back there? Might want to go .5 degrees more negative, should get that tire right at the fender line. IMO that would be a better look.

It's still the OEM camber, this was about an hour after dropping her on swift springs. I slapped the Rays on to see fitment and stuff, put the oem 17's back on for now. Haven't been in for an alignment yet, going to wait a week for the springs to settle. Also, the Rays rears need replacement and the prior owner spray painted / rattle canned the wheels black, so need to clean those up. I think I'm going to keep them black, but his paint job was terribad...
