Thanks for the pics!

Nice SSR's.

I was curious about the 18/19 combo because the wheels I settled on did not come in a 19x10, but did come in a 18x10.

I was stuck on the 10" front because I was under the belief that a 275 wide tire would fit with no problems up there. I was just corrected that I need to run a 265 front because its not likely that I will fit a 275.

With that being the case, I went ahead and ordered the 19x9.5 and 19x11s.

You will fit a 275 quite easily up front provided the wheel has a reasonable offset.

phunk 10-19-2010 03:09 PM

ah well, the tires i want dont come in a 275/30/19 anyway, just a 265.

I would always prefer the larger tires though. Perhaps I should be fine with the 265s for street use anyway... if I end up tracking the car I can get some cheap 18s maybe in 10s and 11s

i had 265/305 combo on my 350z for a while and it worked well... although you can tell more meat in the front would balance it better but i needed the big rears for the TT.

I think it'll look a little funky?

nismo 350z had 18's front and 19's in the rear... always thought it looked fine with those wheels.

... i've seen a ton of nismo 350's with those wheels and never did it look bad to me. personal opinion..

To pull this off, you need a real difference in concavity and offset front-to-rear... otherwise, it just looks silly.
