-19x12 +28 rear 325/30/19

I'm wanting a pretty flush setup with close to stock camber, should I be ok with these wheel specs?

I ran a set-up close to that. That was perfect at stock height.
Front 19x9.5 +25, 275/35-19
Rear 19x12 +28, 325/30-19

Now I have 345/30-19 on my 19x12 +25, which poke about 3/8" with camber set at -1.75. I'm going to reset my camber to -1.5 for the track. It's going to poke even more.

Ok cool. Then I should be really safe with the offsets I was thinking? Should be just flush or would it be set inside the wheel well a little bit? If so then maybe I need to lower the offset a tad.

First pic is the 275/35-19 and 325/30-19.

Second pic is 275/35-19 and 345/30-19.

[Kaden44]

Yeah it's barely noticeable of a difference. That's about how mine sits now with stock sport wheel and 25mm spacer and 305 tire. So I think I'm safe with my offsets

Will 20x10.5 +30 with 275/35/20 fit and not rub in the front with factory suspension?

[Spooler]

It's time to buy my first set of fronts with 34,000 miles on the car. I want to go with 275/35r 19's on my front with stock Nismo wheels/no spacers. The next tire change on the back I will be going with 305's for the rear on the stock Nismo wheels/no spacers. Any fitment issues?

[Spooler]

I put 265/35's 19's on the front. 275's would have been no problem dang it.

[Spooler]

I have no idea why they didn't put 265/25r19's on the front of a Nismo stock. The car has a ton more grip in the front with them.

Im currently running OEM Size Potenza in Front with 20mm Spacer and Michelin AS/3 Rear OEM Size with 20mm Spacer. (Stock Height; Not Lowering)

Will I be able to run 275/35/19 Front and 305/35/19 Rear with NO spacers and Flush Fitment? I hear the front tires rubbing with the spacers currently when the steering wheel is at full lock. Will the 275 up front Rub as well?

And im thinking S04 Pole Position All Around or RE-11 (Car is DD).

Thanks

Are the wheels flush with the fender with that setup? (as they are with 20/20 spacers on stock wheels/tires). And approximately (miles wise) do those tires last you? Just in your situation, not taking into account anything else., but how long do a set last for you?

Thanks for the info !

my setup does not sit flush with the fenders. to do that with stock wheels and any tires you need spacers. I however do not run spacers nor do I want to.

mileage on the tires depends on which tires you have of course. the RE-11's for example are still on my car and have a decent bit of meat left. my fronts could last forever as I've found now that I am 3 sets in. the rears are what go for me. I drive a lot and I drive hard. some drag racing and the dragon wear on the tires a bit. plus oem camber does take a bite out of the insides.

my PSS's lasted me 15k on the rears.
RE-11's have about the same 15K on them but still have life. i'll run these until may and swap fresh rubber in for zdayz.

odd that a the worse lifespan rated tire has lasted longer. I do think that these RE-11's are in a wider size than the PSS's I ran may have something to add to that equation.

Hey guys, I am looking at picking up a set of 18s to use as track wheels and want to be sure I won't have any issues before pulling the trigger. For now I am on stock suspension + sport brakes. Most likely going to hold off on lowering for now and go straight to coilovers + front cup set up after tax season. I am less concerned with being "hellaflush" and more concerned about not rubbing or having to run spacers to clear my brakes.

Front 18x9.5 +22 or +30 which offset will work better?
Rear 18x10.5 +15 or +22 which offset will work better?

For tires I am wanting to do a 265/285 staggered set up. Will 265/35 18 maintain the proper aspect ratio or should I go 265/40? The rears I am pretty sure 285/35 18 will fit right I am just not sure about the fronts. Keep in mind again that I am not concerned with being "hellaflush" with these wheels I am more interested in being "hellasticky" on the track.

Can any of you fitment gurus help me out? Thanks!

Hey guys my car has forgestar f14 super deep concave wheels on it. The back is 19x11 and one broke. I'm SOL because forgestar told me to wait months for a new wheel and I don't really have the money to buy a new set. I found an F14 same size and same tire dimensions for a Ford Mustang and was wondering if I could ride on it at least until I can get a replacement for the actual wheel I have. The offset is +56 on it, I think mine was like +15 o= or +20 or something

[PDXPearlZ]

Im looking into buying some new wheels and dont know what offset to go with. The wheel sizes are 20x8.5 (f) and 20x10 (r). I have a 2011 touring without the akebono calipers. lowered on swift springs. what do you guys think?link posted below of wheels i want:
