20X9.5 +25mm (-1.75 deg camber)
20X11 +8mm (-1..2 deg camber)

dropped on swifts.

I say go for 20mm. That makes the offset be +5 thus balances the poke at the back.

you will need at least 15mm for the front and 5mm on the rears should work just fine

hubcentric spacers are the way to go. i recommend project kics and h&r. a few vendors here have them. you can PM 370Ztune, vividracing, kamispeed or fbnissan.

Thanks again bro, with those spacers it would have a good flusch look id imagine or i can go 5mm more on front and rear. seeing that it will be close to stock offsets with 15 and 5.

Alright i have question and im sure to get good answers on here. looking at TiRm wheels 19x9 front +35 19x10 rear +25. Now, by reading through these posts this setup is going to look shitty. Im looking for a flush look. I have sport package wheels which is 19x9 front +47 and 19x10 rear +30 on the car now, stock. I would need spacers i would imagine for the new wheels. If so what size spacers for a flush look? Now Iwan you clarified this earlier but I just needed a little bit more before i hit that buy button

Would a 20x9.5 +5 fit the front?
