Need tire size help for 15x8 -14 wheels


Recommended Posts

Okay so I finally bought a new pair of wheels for the Z. 

They are SSR Formula Mesh in 15x8 -14 offset. 

 

Current set up is coilovers, 15x7 Konig Rewinds with 205-50-15 in front and 225-50-15 in rear. Lips are unrolled. 

 

I did a test fit of the new wheels without tires on the car and they stick out more than I thought they would. I wanted to run a 225-50-15 all around, or a 205-55-15 in the front. To me it doesn't look like I can fit that. What tire sizes do you guys think will fit? I am not into a stretched look like 195s and I think my current 205-50s have too short of a sidewall. 

 

Also, I only bought a pair of these, but there is another set for sale in the same specs. If I cant fit the tires I want then I will have to buy a smaller size. 

 

Thanks for any suggestions.

I am running 15x8.5 -2 Work Equips on all fours with NT01s 225s - mild mild stretch and I rolled my rears (which is super easy to do BTW).  

I say 205/215.  Go sticky with a mild stretch.  Gorgeous car BTW.

thanks haajehaa and ryne those are some good looking cars. i prefer a car with stock fenders and wide wheels.

 

for this fitment i took my existing tires (205-50 & 225-50), put them on the new rims, and put them on the car. i think it looks pretty good

I already sold the S.

 

To my girlfriend, and it stays in my garage so I can drive anytime I want. Super Sweet. I DD an 07 350Z, the power is great and it's way heavier than the S so it rides smooth on the freeway.
