19x9.5 +17
19x10.5 +18

Going with 245/40/19 up front and this sits very flush if not a "smidge" more than I'd like and 10mm in rear should even out the wheels so it looks like it should.. 10mm spacer essentially turning the offset to +8 on a 19x9.5 or 5mm spacer to +13 ... 275/35/19 in the rear... buying them with 285/40 and 255/40 but taking them off because tires are mis matched and I have a brand new set of stock size nt05's

The tires will be a little strestched for now until I buy the next set but should help with fittment and me getting an idea of what will fit with and without camber adjustments.
Can you take some pics of the setup on the car? I considering a set of 18x9.5 +15 & 18x10.5 +15, just concerned about the front's being a bit too aggressive. Planning on 255/45/18 & 275/40/18 tires.

Bullitt thanks for post #10. I was wanting to save that info (offset on the stock NISMO wheels) for down the road when I can afford wheels. That way I can do some measuring too. I subscribed so don't break the link haha, who knows when I'll have the extra $$.

I don't mean to derail and I won't be cause I dont have more info but a friend at Mackin told me there will be 19x12's on the TE37 for the Z (I'm thinking rears obviously) with mean face profile Lets hope a protoype is available for showing at SEMA.
