As long as the offsets are good, you will have no problem fitting those wheels/tires while running on Swifts.

Well, to give you some perspective, my oem nismo wheels are 19x9.5 (f) and19x 10.5 (r). Offsets are +40 (f) and +23 (r). Both the front and rear are tucked into the wheel well. Not terribly tucked in imo, but enough that if I were nissan, i would have made the offsets slightly more aggressive.

My new wheels for comparison are +22 (f) and +12 (r) , same sizes as OEM above, and they will be sitting pretty much flush with the fenders.

Yeah, you won't need a big spacer in front (maybe 15mm) but you will need at least a 25mm spacer in the rear to get it close to a decent offset. G37 offsets are not ideal for our cars.

so 19x10 +38 fronts and 19x11 +44 rears with 275's in the front and 305's in the back with 15mm spacers fr and 25mm spacers rear should do the trick??

Yeah, I don't think it'll be super flush but it'll look good.

I run f14's. 19x9 front 19x11 rear. Front offset of 22 rear offset of 23. I have 265's in the front and 295's in the rear. Im lowered on Swifts and have zero problems. The offsets you got are pretty weak.

With the spacers you should be OK but you will also need to get longer studs. Are the spacers hubcentric?
