can't seem to find if these will fit, i know it's the proper bolt pattern, but 225 45 18 on front and 245 45 18 on rear, seems like i might need to roll the fenders ( car's lowered) Ant help would be greatly appreciated!!!

bore is slightly smaller as well. but a small 3-5mm spacer will probably solve that (as i have found out).

depends how low you're riding, but if you're that low then yes you'll need to stretch and roll i believe

can I get away with using 2 x 225/45/18 and 2 x 245/45/18 tires wrapped on 350z rims on my 06 sedan? I am lowered and hoping to roll the fenders this summer.
I was looking into those rims, and I know theyll fit on your car, but if youre lowered you will need to roll the fenders for sure. Keep in mind that these rims are much heavier than your normal rims.

You cannot run those profiles at all. You'll definitely rub.
That fact that you have to run 5mm spacers so it will clear the hub, you're technically looking at +25 in the front and +28 in the rear for offsets, which doesn't give us much room to play with under the fender.
I've looked into it - 225/40/18 may even be too fat depending on your drop. 215/40/18 will fit but your fenders need to be rolled and pulled. Most ideal is 205/40/18, with a roll and slight pull.
But again, this all depends on what you're lowered on.

I failed to mention that you will also need to camber.

wow, ok. seems like an expensive setup. I'll shop around for a cheap set but how do you camber the front wheels?

The front camber is adjustable from factory. There is a camber bolt.
