Your rear tire is going to be just over a half-inch taller than your front. Just my two cents.

cjwsrt6 · 02-02-2016, 07:02 PM

Is half an inch bad?

jchammond · 02-02-2016, 11:52 PM

That be a Yes
Pending on tire maker; Michelin,Nitto,etc...they are about 27.5" diameter/ I've seen 28" tires clear easily; with proper wheels & offsets.

Want some opinions before I order a new set, I want to run 285 35 19 front and 325 30 19 rear, I've seen the nismo wheels hold these sizes nicely but I won't be running any spacers, lowered or more camber. Should the nismo offsets be the best option or is anyone running something similar but better?

I'm no sure where it is but if I find it or if u can google it throw it in an offset calc and it'll tell u how much in or out u would be moving the wheel. I usually make little spacer/ shims. If it says the wheel moves out 6mm make a little 6mm piece of wood. And place on wheel and either jack single wheel up or eye ball when spring compresses

jchammond · 02-09-2016, 01:23 AM

Nismo Wheels are 9.5+40/10.5+23,,,+20---+25 seems to be the offset of choice for the 9.5 front's & +10----+15 for the rear.
So:with that being said (depending on how aggressive you want your offsets) A 15-20mm spacer up front & an 8-13mm on rear.
You see a lot of +22,+12 combos & +25,+12's....so most likely a 15mm up front & 10mm rear (spacers)
Good Luck & show pics.

I'm in the refinish vs. new wheels mode as the Sport Rays on my '11 are in need of some love. I've looked into refinishing/color change, now I'm looking to get something different and thought that the late model Sport Pkg. wheels would be a nice step in the right direction.

Just making sure that the newer version of the Sport Pkg. wheels work on the earlier models and that they didn't change some suspension part, hub, caliper, etc. that would prohibit the swap.

I've seen that the TPMS are different, is there any re-programming required, or are they plug and play?

Thanks!

Hmm..

WhatnowGamer · 02-15-2016, 08:11 PM

The 2015 Nismo sure does look good.

WhatnowGamer · 02-15-2016, 08:12 PM

Does anyone happen to have a picture of the 2015 Nismo on CV3s? I highly doubt it.

I have a 2015 on CV5s. Roughly the same concept

WhatnowGamer · 02-15-2016, 08:13 PM

Also, 2015 Nismo on Gnosis GS2.

Never mind, I found some pictures of the 370z on CV3s already..

And I recall seeing someone with a picture of 2015 Nismo on Gnosis GS2, it was Nick I believe..

He was @nizmo_nick on Instagram, don't know if he's on the forum here.

I'm looking at a set of 19," used, volk gt-f wheels. The tires on them are 19.5 front with 245 and 10.5 rear with 275. Now my question is...are the offsets of +17 and +24 ideal? If and when I get new tires would you recommend going wider? And lastly would you recommend spacers-if yes, what sizes? Thank you wheel gods!

I'm running 19x9.5 +25 and 19x10.5 +12 and love the fitment. No spacers needed. I'm on Swift springs too though.

Regarding the tire sizes, the ones that come with the wheels are going to look somewhat stretched, in my opinion. I chose 265/35 and 305/30 and couldn't be happier.
