No. It's a combination of weak offsets, tire profiles, and lack of drop.

I love the car but proper wheel offsets would have made this vehicle a stunner. Spacers and lowering springs will be your best friend for now.

^yak, arent those smaller in circumference than the original 245/40 and 275/35? thought u'd go for the nismo spec tires 255/40 285/35s instead. it'll probably be better.

^yeah I'm not sure why the OP didn't go a certain way with the wheels/tires but to each his own. The car is still a beauty

The offsets are definitely weak... the supplier didnt have the guts to go for an aggressive offset so they just followed what was recommended by WORK.. I was disappointed with the wheel actually.. not only i didnt get deep dish as requested but also they brought in the worng colour code for the wheel (i ordered Matt Black).. As for now the wheels are for sale and am now waiting for a new set of wheels

As for the tires profile, it was actually intended for the previous wheel (WORK VS-XX) which again the supplier got the wrong offset & hit the brake calipers. I guess that'll be the last i'll be dealing with that Wheel Shop...

Now im going for 20's and definitely a deep dish from VIP Status...
