I'm looking at purchasing new wheels and tires for my new(ish) 2014 Nismo.The wheels I'm looking at are 20x9 +35 front and 20x12 +22 rear. I'll be installing 255's on the front and 325's on the rear and will be about a 1/2" lower than stock ride height. I'd like to have them flush with the wheel well lip. Will I have to run a spacer in the front and how will the rears be with the 325?

Edit: I also could go with a 20x10 +40 offset and 285 front. I wonder if that may be a better choice. I just don't want any poke.

This what I'm running. Front - 19x9.5, offset +25, Rear - 19x12, offset +28. Tire were 275/35-19 and 325/30-19. Now 285/35-19, and 345/30-19 on the same rims. That was at stock Nismo height and stock alignment. Now, I'm fully adjustable.

Yep, I was looking at your set up, I was wondering what your offsets were. I'm a little concerned if I go with the 285 on the front with a 10" +40 offset. I'm trying to stay away from tire poke.

Look at my setup. I run 19x10's up front. It's posted in this section somewhere.

That's 190 pages to look through. It would be quicker if I just drove over and looked at your car. Unfortunately, both of our cars are in the shop.
I did look at an online offset calculator and since the fronts are the same offset and a half inch wider and I'm currently running a 265 , it showed about a half inch closer to the fender. I think they'll be about flush with the 285's.

I'm so old that if I tried looking through all those pages I'd forget what I was looking for before I found it.

Which wheels are you going to go with? Talk to Jason at getyourwheels. Theyre in Santa Fe Springs. He should have examples off what setup youre looking at.

Jason is not there anymore. I think the new guy I think is named Josh I think. He was very helpful when I bought wheels for my wife's Audi.

I'm going with Rohana's again. Getyourwheels (Josh) is who I dealt with last time. Unfortunately, the last set I bought with his recommendation I ended up with poke on the front and I had to return the front wheels which was a pain in the azz. He was good to work with but he recommended the wrong offset.
