20x9.5 +20 255/30/20
20x10.5 +25 285/30/20

Or

18x9.5 +10 255/35/18
18x11+10 265/35/18

The 20" wheels and tires would fit without issues, you could even use spacers in the rear.

The 18" rears would also fit, but your tires would be stretched.

Flip the offsets on the 20's (+25F & +20R) no problems with fitment/riding the fence on the Christmas tree effect.
18's will poke with those offsets!

A bit of help would be GREATLY appreciated

Fitment? Flush? Spacers needed?

20x8.5 - ET20 - 5114.3 - FRONT

20x10 - ET25 - 5114.3 - REAR

20x8.5+19F & 20x10+12R will be the closest to flush without poking all out///pending tires,camber,etc....
that's 4" of front spacing (front) & 5" front spacing (rear)
These car's have a 1" stagger offset.
the 8.5et20's will fit the front,,,but you would need 10-15mm spacer's for rears;on the et25 10"

I have a set of 2011 GTR wheels and I believe the specs for the rear at 20x10.5 ET25. I was given a set of Micheline PSS 325/30/20 for the rear. My Z roadster is lowered on Eibach springs (about an 1"). Will these tires fit?

If you can mount the tire without tearing it up....11-12" wheel for that wide,
but i do want to see them on it!
between .75 & 1" taller than factory & should tuck nicely and be similar to Nismo fit.
If you have the wheels & given the tires.....Heck Yeah i'd try it.....you just gotta run close to a 27.5ish up front.

just get the same te37 sizing that everyone scared to get adjustable suspension gets

19x9.5 22 front
19x10.5 +22 or +12 rear

it fits, you can get some good tire on it, and they pop up used fairly regularly

its pretty conservative imo, but if you don't wanna do any work u can just slap it on like everyone else does

pending on camber spec....1" stagger is roughly 1/2" less offset in rear.
So +12 would be better in back.
very common is +25/+12(9.5/10.5)
+22 may want a +10 10.5 to even out.....look around at the pages.

[jchammond]

on a new tire,,,that's about 0.7"
probably close,,,,some get away with that much.
If the tires are used/measure the circumference & divide by pi.
put them on....i want to see.

New Z owner. 2016 Nismo. Think I'll keep the stock rims but will powder cost them flat black. I want to move the 285's up front, tire rack says they will fit the 9.5 inch rims. I want to throw Pilot Cup 2 315's on the back. Guessing I'll need mild spacers on both?

I would rethink your choice of tires. With Pilot Cup's on the rear. You will get lots of understeer when the tires come up to temp. And they are short lived on the street.

Way stickier than the stock S001 when Cups are up to temp.

When they are NOT up to temp, then you are just wasting/wearing the rubber without the benefits.

Wore my RE11 down to wear bar on 15k street miles. Cup will last half that. If you drive fast on coarse pattern concrete, they will evaporate even quicker. A GT3 owner reported 3190 miles in that condition (tirerack review).
