Why you should use these tires with NISMO Wheels: 285/35R19 (F), 325/30R19 (R)

Those sidewall percentages you are looking at are really minute, the difference that matters is the overall diameter (how tall the tire is off the ground) and that's only 0.7% smaller (2.2mm shorter off the ground). That's why you can't notice it, because there's barely a difference. The 325s actually sit right between the Sport Package 275s and the Nismo 285s in overall diameter so you can't go wrong with that diameter.

I also noticed my ride a bit nicer, not as harsh which for our cars I can't say is a bad thing.

One thing that's puzzling me is the poke you have on the front.. Maybe the 285 yokohamas differ from the 285 kumho v12s I have on...but that's quite a difference. My rears are also perfectly flush to the fender without a spacer, but my fronts are about 5-6mm in, I'm really thinking of adding a 10mm spacer for the front because of that. How you have 1-2mm of poke in the front puzzles me...did you do an alignment to straighten your camber even more than original? Could the Nismo have different front suspension arms and/or knuckles...I doubt it but I don't know where that near 10mm difference is coming from on the front, and the rear is just like mine.
