There just doesn't seem to be a lot of choices out there for an 11 inch wheel with the proper offset for our cars. I would like to run at least a 305 on the rear.
Going forced induction & wanting to put all the rubber possible down; 275/35,325/30’s w/no spacers & very minimal negative camber.
Those are good Straight away spec’d Wheels; if you’re gonna Track car & really gonna be hitting the curves hard-look at a more aggressive wheel....as these are 2mm more aggressive on offsets than oem Nismo Wheels.
Be prepared to roast tire’s w/forced induction & these Wheels would allow you to stand them upright,for even wear....
You would have that Antique look like myself & a few others.

When you say "those are good straight away spec'd wheels", what wheels are you talking about?

I should add that with the Rohana wheels, the reason I was going to use spacers is because the front 9.5's only come in +38 offset which I understand won't clear the sport brake calipers, I believe I need a +28 to clear. I was going to use the 20mm spacers as I already have them for my stock wheels. I could go to an 8.5 front and it would have a +35 offset.
Edit: I was typing this and didn't see the above post before I posted this.
I'm looking for form and function. I personally don't want a stock nismo wheel and not looking to spend $4000.00 on a set of wheels.

Wheels that you can adjust your rear camber,to near what front camber specs are from factory.
I run-0.8* on all 4 corners & get absolutely even tread wear....I even handled the Dragon in NC, you just can’t lean on the curves as hard,as a car setup w/-2.0 or -3.0 Camber in the curves...but you won’t burn the inside of your tires off either.
It will look very close to mine w/those wheel specs.
