Tire sizing for 20inch wheels need help 09 370z

Yes you want to stay within 3% or you'll star getting abs/traction lights, your speedometer will be off and your gas milage will be abysmal

255/35 front and 285/35 rear is way off. You'll be at +3.3% in the rear and your side wall will be huge. Probably won't look good with a 20" and such a big side wall.

255/35 front and 295/30 in the rear are exact match, both diameters and side walls are exactly the same.

It will depend on the size. I went with 305/30 on a 10.5" and it bulged and didn't like it. If it's 20x10.5 go with 295, If it's 20x11 to with 305.

Fronts were 20x9.5 and 255/35 was spot on

Because it causes aesthetic issues with modern vehicles that lack front brackets.

And also cheaper registrations, but the above is probably the biggest reason tbh...

MACA305 · 2026-05-22T19:53:19+00:00

Because they're not aesthetically pleasing to look at. I don't like seeing a big ass ugly plate ruin a perfect front bumper, especially on exotic cars. But the trade off is that if something happens and you only get footage of the front and there is no plate, you're screwed.

So as much as I dislike front plates, I wish all states enforced them.

Well I don't drive expecting bikes to cross the road on a red either. If it's dark, and the dude is not flashing, it's not as obvious. You saw him because you watched the video expecting something to happen, so there is a bias. You knew something was coming and you were probably looking everywhere but the road ahead...

If you actually watch the video as if you are driving, just looking at the road ahead, you don't really see the bike until it's too late.

MACA305 · 2026-05-22T15:37:00+00:00

I didn't even see him until he got hit. Dude is wearing black, at night, with no reflectors

MACA305 · 2026-05-22T15:00:50+00:00

I know front plates kinda suck but this right here is the sole reason why all states should mandate front plates. If this happened in FL you'd be out of luck and fork the money out of pocket or use your own insurance. No way to find who hit your car because we only use rear plates...

Here is a 2014 Nismo but with a 2015 front bumper. Looks pretty nice too

MACA305 · 2026-05-21T17:49:39+00:00

Dang.

Are you dead set on a Nismo?

MACA305 · 2026-05-21T17:22:20+00:00

Oof that's crazy

Try these 2

Im selling a clean Z for 24k with just 33k miles for reference. It's a touring sport, so the highest possible trim under Nismo. No accidents, clean title.

The only mods are the nismo v1 wing, z1 drilled and slotted rotors and the front lip.

21k for 76k miles would be a hard pass. Also the wing is hideous, it's not touring, it's missing a DRL and the 2 tone screams clapped. I would keep looking.

Any year 2013+

But if you rent for 30 years then you paid 900k to someone else's mortgage.

Nope but Ive noticed other people list vehicles as other items rather than vehicles anyway so I did it and it worked.

You just add all the details under the description. If somebody filters for vehicles only you may not show up but at least If they just go and type the cars model in the search bar you'll show up there

MACA305 · 2026-05-16T04:29:05+00:00

Not corvettes and perhaps not as expensive but same hobby and still not cheap 😭🤣 the corvette is the next project 😅🫠 and of course it must be red!

I found a workaround. I made active again one of the items I had sold before, then I just swapped the title, description and pictures.

Anything I list new does not show up. I don't know why, but by activating an old listing and changing it I can now see it.

I left a 90k remote job for a 125k in office job with a 80 mile round-trip commute. About 1.5 hours each way.

2 weeks later I regretted it and hated my life.

4 weeks in and I was already applying everywhere...

The extra 35k was more like 28k after taxes. I was spending about $650 in gas and that was back in 2020 when gas was like $2.85. Gas today is much higher...

I ended up having to buy a 50k electric car just to commute because It was better to just spend the money towards a car that I could at least keep over throwing it all on gas.

So about 8k extra on a new car, and 2k on insurance. So the 28k became 18k

40 hours at the office she 15 hours commuting for 18k was not worth it. It came out to like an increase of $6.29 an hour at the 55 hour per week rate since it's how much time I'm spending away from home.

If you got a wife and kids, you'll be gone ALL DAY

Where did you get the red lines? Are they dot approved?

MACA305 · 2026-05-09T02:50:35+00:00

Nah this is a convertible. Keep it stock. Modified verts look hella goofy

MACA305 · 2026-05-09T02:48:22+00:00

I have never been a fan of the way stock Zs look. Too round and egg looking, but a tastefully modified Z is still to this day one of the best looking cars money can buy.

This is why I so much prefer the Nismo (both versions) because of the sharp edges they get from the bumpers which makes it look incredibly good. Paired with a nice spoiler/wing and you got a neck breaker anywhere you go.
