track/track oriented car. You'll pick up a substantial amount of understeer without the proper suspension settings and modifications. Not to mention tire to fender/fender liner clearance will be an issue. The Z32's really seem to like 245 - 255 front tire widths on a 8.5-9" wide wheel, giving a nice balance of crisp turn-in response while avoiding paralyzing understeer on lightly modified suspensions or near factory settings. 265's would be a decent option but are non-existant on 17" front wheel setups, but are readily available on 18" wheels (265/35/18 matches well with a 275/35/18 rear). Anything wider is for the stance boys & girls on that setup, if that's your thing. I have yet to see a 10.5"+ wide rear wheel on a Z32 without excessive camber settings or modified quarter panels, or both. I have seen a 10" wide wheel on some Z32s depending on the offset, without modification or silly settings, but it seems like 10" wide wheels are becoming rare.
