Stick to ur OEM wheels

if u need to spend money on wheels for some reason, get some Nismo rears on all 4 corners, they'll won't look like garbage without needing spacers and they're always in the FS section

if the wheels ur looking at need a 20mm spacer . . . look for different wheels

There's a SEMA sale for Advan/Rays/Gram Lights, probably like 25% MSRP on certain packages. I know for a fact SpeedImageUSA has pallets of wheels coming in. Please call them and get wheels that . . . actually fit:
Welcome to Speed Image USA -
42285 Osgood Rd
Unit G
Fremont , CA. 94539
US
Phone: 510-573-1998

there will probably be some used TE37's floating popping up for sale with better fitment, seem to appear fairly often

as for a 315 on a 11 inch wheel . . . thats fine. i wouldn't call that a stretch. Hell thats more squared off than OEM Nismo rear wheel (285 on a 10.5), so i don't wanna hear any crap about that being stretched

EDIT:

Apparently there is also a Vossen x Work sale going on now too. Not my cup of tea, but here's their lineup:
Vossen x Work - Vossen Wheels

personally, i'm looking at Advan GT for my next weeks. Like in a year or two rofl
Thanks for the input. I'm getting ready to go forced induction and besides upgrading my lsd I want to put some more meat on the rear. I don't think the stock 275's are going to last too long. There just doesn't seem to be a lot of choices out there for an 11 inch wheel with the proper offset for our cars. I would like to run at least a 305 on the rear.

Going forced induction & wanting to put all the rubber possible down; 275/35,325/30’s w/no spacers & very minimal negative camber.
Those are good Straight away spec’d Wheels; if you’re gonna Track car & really gonna be hitting the curves hard-look at a more aggressive wheel....as these are 2mm more aggressive on offsets than oem Nismo Wheels.
Be prepared to roast tire’s w/forced induction & these Wheels would allow you to stand them upright,for even wear....
You would have that Antique look like myself & a few others.

When you say "those are good straight away spec'd wheels", what wheels are you talking about?

c'mon this isn't hard, you guys aren't even trying

I'm running 20x12 +20 with 315/25/20 WITH ROOM TO SPARE at -2 camber (stock is like 1.8). Some suspension arms and u can run zero camber if ur focused solely on straight line speed like an ape

hell

like i said, just get some OEM nismos, they'll fit up to a 325


seriously. oem nismos. where the hell are you looking?

Te37 in 19x10.5 +12, folks run 305 with room to spare
work CR2P, any offset you want pretty much
Advan GT

****, the folks that TRACK THEIR CARS are using Enkei RPF1's and NT03m's with all sorts of rubber

18x10.5 +30 has infinite space

TE37 ULTRA comes in 19x9.5 +22 / 19x11 +15. I believe there's a set for sale RIGHT NOW in the FS section

EDIT:
HOW THE **** DID YOU MISS THIS THREAD? It's even on THIS SAME PAGE of the forum

Why you should use these tires with NISMO Wheels: 285/35R19 (F), 325/30R19 (R)

its ******* 14 pages of people talking about exactly what you need my goodness what are you doing

I should add that with the Rohana wheels, the reason I was going to use spacers is because the front 9.5's only come in +38 offset which I understand won't clear the sport brake calipers, I believe I need a +28 to clear. I was going to use the 20mm spacers as I already have them for my stock wheels. I could go to an 8.5 front and it would have a +35 offset.
Edit: I was typing this and didn't see the above post before I posted this.
I'm looking for form and function. I personally don't want a stock nismo wheel and not looking to spend $4000.00 on a set of wheels.

Wheels that you can adjust your rear camber,to near what front camber specs are from factory.
I run-0.8* on all 4 corners & get absolutely even tread wear....I even handled the Dragon in NC, you just can’t lean on the curves as hard,as a car setup w/-2.0 or -3.0 Camber in the curves...but you won’t burn the inside of your tires off either.
It will look very close to mine w/those wheel specs.

Gram Lights 57 Transcend:
https://www.rayswheels.co.jp/product...el=57Transcend

Comes in 19x9.5 +25 and 19x10.5 +20

They'll fit whatever damn tire you want
They're maybe $500/600 a piece
you can throw sell your spacers


running an aggressive road course with less than 1 deg camber seems like trying to run a race with weights on your ankles. all for "even tire wear". seems ludicrous to me, but . . . at least your tires are "evenly wearing"
i guess i'll cry because my tires are slightly more worn on the inside than the outside.

Here are the sizes and offsets for the Rohana RFX5's. Any recommended sizes to get the right offset without spacers? Maybe going to a 20"?

I'd punt on Rohanna because they seem like your generic american wannabe wheel company

but if you're set on that wheel
Rears:
20x12 +22 (aggressive, i guess?)
or
20x11 +28 (way more conservative, thats about the same fitment as a nismo rear)

Fronts:
i guess 20x10 +22 but that will require some negative camber and most folks are scared of that

I'm lowered an inch on kw v3's, hotchkis f & r sway bars, spl front control arms, rear camber arms and end links. Mostly spirited and hopefully some track days.

if you have SPL FUCAs you have enough adjustment

Front: 20x10 +22, 265/30/20 to 285/30/20
Rears: 20x11 +28, 315/25/20 or 325/25/30

EDIT:
This is fairly close to SPOOLER's setup

OZ has better knowledge on the lowered,coils,fuca's & track day's setup's....I know a more aggressive wheel will suit you better.

I do like the look of the rfx5's and they do offer a wider wheel. What you spec'd out sounds good. That's probably the set up I'll go with. Thanks for your expertise.
