Question Is the 350z wheel bolt pattern the same as 300z

Hi, my 350z is coming in December and I am wanting to shop ahead for a set of wheels. I wanted an automatic (don't laugh) with leather so I had to get a touring model. When you get an automatic you can't get the 18 inch wheels (go figure). I'm not really in love with their wheel design anyway. If I knew that wheels for the 300z will fit the 350z I could easily shop for wheels. Everybody shows the 300z when looking for wheel compatability but nobody shows the 350z yet. Any info about this problem would be greatly appreciated....

Not sure the answer to you question regarding the wheel bolt pattern but Tirerack.com gives you options for wheels for the 350Z.

wheels for 350z

I went to the Tire Rack website and called them on the phone. The Tire Rack said that they have not been able to get a car yet to measure. Therefore they don't have all of the needed information to figure out which wheels will work and which ones won't. I guess I just need to be patient and wait for everything to be figured out. I am a planner by nature and just wanted to pre-choose the replacement wheels. Thanks for responding....

I just ordered a set of 19's for my touring/auto Z.

You'll want to get wheels with a 5x114.3 aka 5x4.5 bolt circle and somewhere around 30-40mm offset or 5.5-6" backspacing.

my 19's should fit in the wells nicely. I opted for slightly smaller 235/35/19 tires because I will be lowering the car about .75"

Have you read the article that sport compact car did on the Z when they upgraded the tires? I'm not saying your's will be exactly the same, but they lowered there's more, and using the 235's for the front was way too small and they were even able to fit the 255's from the back onto the front w/ no problems at all.

Factory offset is 30mm front and rear by the way. And the stock wheels are 17x7.5" front, 17x8" rear if that will help a bit.
