I found a pair of brand new Nitto NT555 275/35ZR18 tires. I was wondering if they would fit on my car. The current wheels i have on it now are these. Touring 18" v.2 18-inch Touring wheels V2 These wheels were introduced on the 2005 35th Anniversary 350Z. However, Anniversary owners were in for a shock when these came standard on the 2006 and 2007 models on the Base, Enthusiast, and Touring trim levels. Front Size: 18x8.0 Offset: +30mm Weight: 24.4 Tire: 225/45/18 Rear Size: 18x8.5 Offset: +33mm Weight: 25.8 Tire: 245/45/18  Now i was just wondering if they would fit on my car. I know i dont want to spend $600+ on 2 new tires at didscount. And found these for cheap. |

275's are normally made for a 10 in wide wheel. My buddy (idriveaG) has 275 35 20 on his rear tires because of the staggered fitment. Now you may be fine if you are running them on the rear only, but I can see them rubbing in the front.

Sounds wide for an 8.5 wheel. I am on a 8" wide wheel and running 225s

Yeah I have Nitto NT555's 285/35/18's and I plan on putting them on a 10in wheel. Really think they'd be way too wide for an 8in wheel.

agreed. 275 requires 9-10inch wide wheel, tire stretch will vary tire model to model. |

Just for a reference these are the tires i got  http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/findTireDetail.do?r=TSWINT%7Cpc%7C77450&pc=40148&ar=35&rd=18&cs=255 |
