Hi,

I have a 2019 Nismo complete stock except resonated short tails and 20mm spacers allround. I want to upgrade to 20" rims since i think the stock rims look a bit small and the tires a bit stretched but I don't want to lose the "girthy" look of having a bit of sidewall. I have read the fitment guide thread and I am quite familiar with wheel and tire geometry. However I still need some input in increasing the overall wheel size a bit so i can have 20s with a bit of sidewall (not so stretched) and also fill out the wheel well slightly more.

I have spent a bit of time on willtheyfit and I think theoretically what I want is:

F: 20x9 +35 with 245/40 R20
R: 20x11 +28 with 295/35 R20
The difference between front and back is then 1,49% which is below the 3% threshold and the offsets allows me to keep the 20mm spacers and still be at essentially the same flush fitment.

My plan is to later drop it on coils to compensate for the gained height due to the larger wheels.

So my questions are: is there anyone out there that runs this setup or a similar one? Will this be a bad idea and should i go for ratios 35 and 30 f/r respectively instead and why? Please help!
