Thank you so much man. I am going 305s in the back on a 19x11 wheel. Is that stretched? If it is then, I may as well go 255/35/19 in the front instead of 275s.

You're welcome. Nope. The 2 pictures I posted above are a 305/30/19 on an 11" wheel.

It's better now, but the main problem is they are hitting the bracket where the edge of the fender is bolted to the front bumper located at about the red square in the pic. I hit it with the dremel and reduced the amount it protrudes, and it's better, but still rubs over a decent road imperfection. The rears are fine and have a 1" spacer with 285's. The fronts have 245/40/19's

I don't really want to run a lower profile tire as "feeling" the road is already at its threshold. If absolutely necessary, I'd do it. Here's what I'm thinking:

Machine inside of wheel to remove a few mm and machine rotor surface to remove a few mm. Hopefully, that would give me the offset to eliminate rubbing.

Your thoughts, alternate solutions, and opinions are appreciated.





In this next pic, you can see the bit of stretch the fronts have now with the 245/40/19's with the 9.5" wheels:
I have the same setup up front. But with -2.05 camber, Eibach Springs and 245/35 Toyo but with 7 A/T. No rubbing!
Whats ur setup?

Question 19" or 20" Help me decide please

So I've decided to upgrade my OE Nismo wheels on my 2012 Nismo. I'm currently stock height. I'm on the fence about going 19" or 20". I won't be Auto X it or tracking it, only street driven. I don't want any aggressive camber settings. If I go 19" I will drop with Swift springs before wheel and tires are installed. If decide to go 20" I may still drop with the Swift springs but not till after wheels and tires are installed to see how it comes out. I want wheels/tires to be flush as possible with fenders without any modifications. I also want to run the widest tires as possible and don't want the stretch tire look. Probably will be running Hankook V12 tires. So what do you guys recommend running in a 19" and 20" setup? Thanks...!!

I dont sell wheels. I just know that those offsets will work really well.

If you go custom wheels, you could just do the same offsets. Altho design will also matter when your talking about clearing the brakes.

my old wheels tho:

20x10 + 27 and 20x12 + 20.

Ah ok, Man that Z is sick..!! Very aggresive looking but clean. Exactly what I want. Love the wheel tire setup. So I see you have camber arms and coilovers. Any suspension upgrades needed to run that setup? I know you mentioned stock camber specs.

i had the arms. but didnt need em.

threw those on and went.

They poked a lil at stock height, but never rubbed. Under compression they would end up tucking in perfectly.

when lowered the car .5" they sat really nice.

285's say a minimum wheel width it should be on is 9.5" and the 265's minimum of a 8.5" wheel which are both 1/2" wider then the base 18's. Will it fit? Yes. Will it feel sloppy? Yes. The tire is basically going to bubble more then it should so its gonna have some extra slack.
