350z wheels on 2WD IS250

Does anyone have experience with the Z's 18x8? I'm getting a set, they are +30 ET with hub 66.1mm. Besides getting hub rings to fit, are there any issues with fitments?

Make sure you use properly sized tires. I threw a set on my car when I needed wheels to roll on for a couple weeks and the OEM 350 tires have way to much sidewall for our cars, other than that they work fine.

I chose the Nissan wheels cos I wanted the offset and besides it'll be a secondary set. Stock is250 18" have dud offsets.

thanks for the info.

Tell us if you stock lugs are mag seat or cone seat? My 16" OEM Lexus wheels are MAG seat lugs with a washer and fit very few after market wheels. I believe Nissan uses Acorn seat lugs and if so it wont work with mag seat lugs.
