Front: 20x8.5 offset 20. 245 35 20
Rear: 20x10 offset 25. 275 30 20

2nd- can I put 305 30 on the rear 10" rim?

Thanks
the suggested minimum rim size i see is 10.5",,,depending on what tire you are looking at & if you like a fat tire with a bit of bulge or not.
that's a 27.2" tire...your front's are 26.8"
A 295/30 is 27" and has just over an 11" tread on the Michelin PSS tire

Guys, I need some help in the "will it fit with spacers big enough to clear my BBK".

I have Maya STMs in: Front - 19x90 offset +30, Rear - 19x105 offset +29. That's what the label reads. Tape measure reads more like 10" and 11". I have the APRacing BBK currently, tried to put the fronts on, not enough caliper clearance. like a good 1/4" off. I also read a thread stating I'd need spacers so they'd fit flush with the fenders anyway.

I'm really bad with wheels and tires. Can someone tell me what spacers I would need to make these flush with my fenders on a 2011 370z base model? Hopefully that's enough clearance for my BBK.

Really appreciate it.

not sure about the brake clearance/but 10mm would put you @+20 front & 15mm would be +14 in rear,,,very close to flush...all pending tire size,camber,etc....
may could go 20mm in rear.
would be cool to have some loaners before making a purchase.

I know that's getting out there-Aznjay!
i'm sure another member is out there with rolled fender's.
A bit more imfo. would be helpful; 35,30,25 series tires/also brand (if known)
Ride height(stock,lowered 1" etc...) & Driving habits (normal street,track,both,etc...)
That's a very aggressive wheel offset.

Looking at a set of G25s 20x10 +30 / 20x12 +20 , how aggressive? I have STANCE SS+ coils and SPL rear camber arms and toe bar. No camber adjustments up front. Also wanted to run 255/30-35 or 265/30-35 up front and 305/25-30 in rear. Will this fit with factory camber settings or is it fairly aggressive?

Best to start with 19" wheels for those 19" rims

Also "the best" will be highly opinionated. What makes a rim "the best"?

Tires just get Michelin PSS and save yourself the headache.

best is subjective. so tell us what your ultimate goal is.

20s with as much wide meaty tire as you can stuff under the fenders.

20s with hellaflush/stretched tires (note: i won´t respond if this is your direction. no really i wouldn´t)

20s and you dont care how wide the tires are you just want a certain asthetic.

anyway you get my drift hopefully.

should be doable although i think the 305 will look stretched on a 12" wheel. but if that´s what you are going for then have no fear. daisuke149 ran that size wheel in the back but with a 325/25 and it didn´t rub.

here are some photos:
Project Panda, By Daisuke

in some thread or another he mentioned that once he lowered it and added a bit of camber it actually didn´t poke any more. with factory camber you´d poke a bit (those photos give you an idea of how much).
