About This Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition 2010 Build
We love featuring real builds from real owners. This Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition 2010 sits on a set of 19×9.5 / 19×11-inch Varrstoen Es2 wheels, and the result speaks for itself.
The owner chose Varrstoen for a reason. This brand delivers serious quality and a design language that turns heads at every car meet. We see hundreds of Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition builds come through WheelFront every month, but this one stands out. The combination of the exterior with the Varrstoen Es2 creates a look that balances aggression with elegance.
Fitment Breakdown: Varrstoen Es2 on the Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition 2010
I walked around this 40th Anniversary Z at the show, and the Varrstoen ES2 setup immediately grabbed my eye. Running 19x9.5 up front and 19x11 in the rear creates a legendary stance that this Z chassis absolutely craves. Those +22 offsets are the magic numbers for this car. They push the wheels right out to the edge of the fenders without looking like a circus wagon.
The 19-inch diameter fills the wheel wells perfectly without ruining the ride quality. With 9.5 inches of width up front, you get that aggressive look while keeping the steering feel sharp and responsive. The 11-inch rear width gives the back end a meaty, planted look that demands respect from every angle.
Clearance around those massive factory Akebono calipers is always a worry on the Z, but these ES2s clear them with room to spare. The spoke design arcs outward just enough to keep the metal away from the brake hardware. You don't need to hunt for spacers to make these fit over the 40th Anniversary Edition brakes.
I looked closely at the hub bore fitment, and the Varrstoens slide right onto the Nissan hubs without any drama. A solid hub-centric ring ensures there is zero vibration at highway speeds. You get that smooth, factory feel even with aftermarket wheels.
The barrel lip on the 19x11 rear is where the real drama happens. It is deep enough to catch the light and add serious character to the profile of the Z. That lip depth is exactly why people choose the ES2 design in the first place.
Because this Z sits on lowering springs, the fender gap is tight and controlled. The springs drop the center of gravity just enough to tuck the tires slightly. It creates a cohesive look that connects the wheels to the body lines perfectly.
You need to watch out for the rear liner tabs, though. With this aggressive offset and lowered suspension, you might kiss the plastic liners on big bumps. A quick trim of the fender liner tabs is a smart move if you plan on driving it hard.
What We Recommend for Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition 2010 Owners
If you own one of these limited edition Zs, do not settle for weak offsets. Stick to the +20 to +25 range if you want that flush fitment without extreme camber. Anything higher than +30 will look tucked and sad.
I always tell guys to run a staggered setup on the 370Z. The car is engineered for wider rear tires, and going square ruins the balance. Keep the 9.5/11 split to maintain that factory handling bias.
Tire choice matters more than people realize. If you go for a super wide tire, you will deal with rubbing and headache. A slight stretch on the tire sidewall helps clear the fenders when you hit those inevitable potholes.
Do not skip on quality hub-centric rings. I have seen too many guys fight steering wheel shake because they used cheap, plastic rings that cracked under heat. Invest in metal rings for a solid, permanent fit.
Avoid the temptation to go for a massive offset that requires pulled fenders. Cutting or rolling your factory 40th Anniversary fenders is a crime. Use the right offset to get the fitment you want without butchering your bodywork.
Style and Build Analysis
The Black finish on these ES2 wheels against the signature 40th Anniversary Quartz Black paint is pure stealth mode. It is a monochromatic look that makes the car look wider and lower than stock. The light catches the spokes just enough to show off the classic five-spoke design.
The ES2 is a timeless design for the Z platform. It mimics the classic JDM racing aesthetic that fits the 370Z's curvy, muscular body perfectly. The wheels look like they belong on a track car but still fit in at a high-end car meet.
I have featured plenty of builds, but this one hits differently because of the restraint. The owner did not go overboard with neon colors or wild aero kits. They let the aggressive wheel fitment do the heavy lifting, and it works wonders.
The proportions on this car are spot on. Because the wheels are pushed out, the tires look beefy and capable. It gives the car a sense of road presence that the stock wheels just cannot touch.
Every time I look at the car from a three-quarter angle, the way the rear wheel sits in the fender is perfection. It defines the character of the 370Z. This is exactly how a sports car should sit.
Why We Love This Build
When this Z rolls into the lot, the sunlight dances off the deep Black wheels and the dark metallic paint. It has an ominous, predatory stance that makes you stop dead in your tracks. The lowering springs provide just enough drop to close the gap, turning the factory arches into a frame for those wide 11-inch rears.
I love this build because it respects the legacy of the 40th Anniversary edition while adding a layer of modern aggression. It is not trying too hard; it is just confident. You look at it and know exactly what the driver cares about: performance and style in equal measure.

Before You Buy: Fitment Checklist
We talk to Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition owners every day. These are the questions we hear most before they pull the trigger on new wheels.
Will 19×9.5 / 19×11-inch wheels fit my Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition? Yes, but fitment depends on width, offset, and tire size working together. A wrong offset means rubbing. A wrong tire size means poor handling. Always verify all three.
Do I need to modify my fenders? That depends on your offset and suspension. A conservative offset with stock ride height usually fits without modification. Go aggressive and you may need to roll or pull your fenders.
Can I daily-drive this setup? Absolutely. Thousands of Nissan 370Z 40th Anniversary Edition owners run 19×9.5 / 19×11-inch wheels every day. The key is choosing the right tire with enough sidewall to absorb road imperfections.
