These wheels fits perfectly on NISSAN 350Z, INFINITY G35, and Lexus GS300 and GS400.
IT WILL CLEAR BREMBO Brake.

yeah the first one won't fit, not even close

the seond one, the front is ok, you will need to bend tabs and roll the fender in the front, and will rub slightly when you hit dips, but it's ok

the rear you need to shave the fender lip and you are set

I know its been mentioned before, but is there going to be a sticky on this topic? Seriously, these questions, with these exact specs are becoming like daily posts now.

Lilred: for the second set check out this thread
https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=154778
I have the MOD's on my GS with an L tuned suspension. I actually did not have to mod anything (no rolling or shaving fenders) It does scrape when either hitting dips or bumps but nothing that is annoying.

You can make anything fit, but it wont be worth the cost, trouble, loss of driveablility, and sheer uglyness of hacked fenders and -7 degrees of camber
