In any case, there does appear to be a lot of room back there still so could my setup work?
widening the rear 2 inches and adding a 25mm spoiler essentially gives you a 19x12 + 30 wheel.

I run a 20x12 + 20 and it pokes out about 8mm. but i also run a 325 tire and have very little camber and am not lowered.

If you lower your car and run camber around -2 ish and a 325 tire you may consider a 30mm spacer or even 35. But the good thing about spacers is that they are relatively cheaper. So do the setup, get the tire you want and then when you put it on you can see how big you want to go beyond 25mm spacer.

I think 245 will fit fine.

Should fit with a bit of camber. Hated1 run 275s up front, you might want to check out his ride.

the 9.5+ 22 should be fine with 275's easy. I got 20x10 with 275 + 27 and again minimal camber. I think like 1.2 is the camber. So again slightly lowered and/or slightly more camber = should be perfectly fine.



Wow, you're not lowered with camber?! Your wheels and tires are WIDE!

well im lowered like .25" is all. Camber is like 1.2ish

I'm actually getting adjustable camber arms to correct my negative camber in the rear... The answer I'm looking for is if there is enough room towards the inside of the wheel well to accommodate widened sport wheels on 25mm spacers with 325 tires?

I am sure I could dig up the information from this thread or at least figure it out with the information in here... but perhaps someone can save me from having to dive in..

can anyone tell me what offset i would want to run a rear 335/30/18 on a 18x12 wheel and zero camber? off the top of my head i guessing like a 20 but i bet someone knows way better than i do.

0 camber. +20 would be low.

I cant tell exactly due to the fact that you might be lowered

I am lowered .5" and run around 1.2" camber and my tire / wheels poke out about 8mm. But they dont rub cus when it compressed they tuck in.

But my offset is +20

I would say about a +30, but then if your lowered alot a +20 might do : /

Dont know how lowering certain amounts changes the offset you could run.

I am running the H&R springs and I dont imagine that I will want to lower the car anymore. Although I wish it was lower for appearance, but the chassis on the car is very low to the ground relative to body height, more so I believe that my 350z was... because my 350z "looked" lower to the ground but I didnt seem to have as many issues with actually contacting things on the ground as I do in this car while it appears higher.

thanks for the reply BTW. I should probably do a bunch of measuring off my current setup and then I can come up with the numbers.

Have read just about every post in wheels/tires but found no definitive answer.
How do 275/35-19s fit on the stock rays sport package fronts. With no drop or spacers. It seems that it's ok on the nismo rays but I'm concerned about the only 9" width and the +47 offset. Will the bulge from the only 9" wide rim in combination with the +47 cause rubbing on the inner fenders or suspension with steering at full lock?
Only reason I,m thinking about 275/35 is it is closest to stock height and plan to squeeze 305/30 on the stock 10" wide rears.

Are you talking about running a 275/35 on the stock 19x9 front sport wheel?

Yes... it WILL fit. I'm not sure how well it's going to work because like you said, the tire is going to mushroom over. The width of the 275 is a little over 10.8 inches wide.

It really might rub the inner area at full lock.

Are you opposed to running a small spacer? Maybe 15mm just in case?

I'm kinda stuck right now just picked up the car and dropped 5k on sounds 2k on exhaust,intake and now I need new rubber. Trying to avoid spacers on the front since it will sorta force me to put spacers on the rear and I really haven't decided on any wheels yet.
I guess I can go with 265s or 255s to avoid any problems for now. Would be nice to know if someone has ever tried 275s on the stock sport front rays.

It's not a really popular thing to do because the front rim is so small and has a high offset.

Why don't you just wait and get the right size wheels and tires...?

Having those big tires on a car that isn't lowered might look funny.
