Short answer is no

Sport wheels are 19 x 9 fronts and +47mm offset so net of 20mm spacers is +27

Rears are 19 x 10 with +30mm offset so net of 25mm spacers is +5

You can manage your offsets in aftermarket wheels and reduce or eliminate spacers to get flush If you go wider (say 10.5 rears) that 12.5mm of addition width over oem sport rays so that will change your effective offset accordingly


ps - still looking for help from someone on how much front to rear height differential that the ABS and VDC can take when staggering heights

So,

19x9.5 +33 = 20mm outward than current sport wheels

19x10.5 +11 = 25mm outward than current sport wheels

Why is this not advised? Wouldn't this be the equivalent to adding 20mm front and 25mm rear spacer to sport wheels in the sense of being flush on the outer side of the wheels towards fenders?


Also, from what I have read on the forum, you should keep the front and rear overall diameter below 1.0% difference to be safe. Around 0.5% would be best. To check yourself compare the front and rear sizes of the stock sport wheels and tires as well as the Nismo Stock wheels and tires. The Sport wheels and tires come out to 0.52% Difference and the Nismo Wheels and tires come out to 0.51%. Here is a Link - http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php...et2=23#content

I hope that helps..

I picked up some Michelin Pilot Super Sports
265/35/19 front
305/30/19 rear

not on car yet-thinking no spacers right now
coilovers to go on someday
I usually drive with VDC off
