Will these fit without rubbing? I see many s14's with the 18" track wheels on (like Nicely's old car) but haven't found any on the s15.

As far as I know.. std s15 wheels are 16"x6.5 +45 tyres: 205/55
and the 350 wheels are 18"x8 +30 recommended tyres: 235/40

Anyone got pictures?

Thanks

Z33 Track rims with factory RE040s, if you are not planning to roll the guards then dont buy it :D

yes, its touching!... so probably 235/40 would be a better choice but the offsets are still abit too wide for th standard bodykit.

hello there,

sorry to hijack thread but after purchasing my new S03s (255/40/17) my rear seems to be rubbing now during cornering on the loaded tyre

but previously i had the same spec tyre but a dunlop direzza dz101 255 40 17 but it didnt rub during cornering and now these new tyres do?

i hav tried lowering the pressure but it still seems to be doing it?

thx

Different brands of the same size tyres have different side wall bulge...

yeah i just realised...its scrapping on the outside sidewall to my guards...might be related to having aged suspension too

350Z stock rims...if thats what you are referring to fits just right for the S14s. Friend of mine uses them for drifting.
