Input on wheel/tire setup please
So I've had my 2012 Nismo now for about 3 weeks and now thinking about swapping wheels and possible adding a small drop. Nothing crazy on the drop, probably go with the Swift springs ( front-1.2" rear -1.0") that everyone is raving about. I don't want to have to buy new suspension components to correct the camber. I plan on realigning the car after the new wheels/tires and springs are installed and would like to realign the car to spec without having to swap out any other suspension components or have to trim/roll fenders. I would like to run the widest tires possible I'm thinking a 265/35/19 front and 305/30/19 rear. I'm currently running OE 19" Nismo wheels with 15mm Z1 spacers front and rear. I love the look and would like to achieve that look with different wheels and wider tires. I wouldn't mind taking off the spacers, actually I would rather take them off since I would be replacing the wheels anyway. I just want the wheels/tires to sit flush as possible with the fenders without rubbing or having to do any body modifications and of course clear the Akebono brakes. With that being said what do you guys recommend running as far as wheel widths and offsets. Front 19x9.5 offset? rear 19.10.5 offset? I would apprciate the input and opinions guys. Thanks..!!
By the way I will be selling my 2012 silver Nismo wheels and tires with 15mm spacers pretty soon. Tires and wheels have about 2k miles on them no curbing or damage on wheels. One rear tire does have one tire plug from small nail. |
