Wheel question?

Im sure you all get sick of will this wheel fit question. I did a little research and could not really find any info. But i came across a good deal for a new set of wheels. The size seems a little big but not sure, 8.5" x 18" front and 10.5" x 18" rear. What size tires would you all recommend? Also a thought i had is will the rears rub at all. Just trying to gather enough info before i drop a pretty penny. Any info and advice would be much respected.

those sizes will fit fine. I a running 18x8 in the front on my Z with 18x9 in the rear. As for tire size I am running 245-35r18 in the front and 265-35r18 in the rear. The only thing is though you need to check wheel offset. If the ofset s wrong then they wont fit right. You could run a 18x6 and it not fit right bc of the offset. These cars are kinda tricky. I know alot of wheel copmanies wont list the Z32 as a car that their wheels will fit on bc there is debate over clearance of the calipers in the front.

Well the only reason im considering buying the wheels is that my cousin has a free set of tires that he has. But there 255 in the front and 285 in the rear pilot sports. The offset from what the seller said are custom fit threw iforged so they were taliored for the z.
