We do have to remember that while the offsets are different between different wheels/trim levels, the cars themselves are not. Meaning the track width at the hubs, and the width between the fenders...

Yes, that is a great setup. I just chose 285/35R19 for the front for 3 reasons.

1, I already had them in the rear so I saved money and just moved them.

2, my front end is slightly higher off...

Balance and wobble are 2 different things. It depends on the wheel quality obviously but it should be very near perfectly balanced from the factory. If it's not, well there's a quality issue...

If you prefer not to bubble yes, 325 on 12" wheels will be a good fitment.

Widening will work, especially for racers that are generally crazy and do things on a low budget. For regular street...

+44 means further in, so then you'll need a 10mm spacer instead of 5. +30, +33, or +35 would be a better option

I believe that that's a good wheel spec for your setup. I don't think you'll go wrong with it...the most you'll need I'd say is a 5mm spacer if they're not quite flush with the fender.

I definately wouldn't recommend that.

I'm pretty certain a 335/30R19 will fit the OEM Nismo wheel as well. Maybe even a 345/30R19...although noone has tried it.

Ok, so original Nismo rear wheel offset is 23mm. With 325s, my tires are flush with the fender (no spacers). A 345 is 20mm wider than a 325, so that means it would stick out an extra 10mm on each...

That's why you get 325/30R19s...much much closer to the overall diameter of the factory 285.

Why not just move the rear 285s upfront? Saves money and 285/35R19s are perfect in outside diameter. :tup:
