I like your new set up Scott, that's a lot of meat back there. Although I still like your old wheels too....... :-)

275/35R19 front 305/30R19 Rear
Forgestar F14 19x9.5" +20 Front 19x11" +18 rear
currently on H&R springs.

The front fenders did need to be modified a little with +20 offset....

Sick wheels what did you have to do to the fenders?

Like_a_boss · 04-23-2013, 04:26 AM

It was chirping the tires on every small bump so i removed the fender liner and had that bracket that holds the fender to the front bumper trimmed and a new fastener installed now it doesn't rub on any bumps at all.

Can you take pics of how you trimmed and secured the bumper/fender fastener? I was having that issue and had to raise the car up

sfearl1 you run spacers with your RE30s or is that all offset?

I have 15mm spacers on the rear. Fronts are perfect.

KaienZ34 · 04-29-2013, 06:39 AM

Pretty sure that's just offset.

I am contemplating getting wider tires for the front of my nismo which has the stock rims of 9.5" on the front. I kept the stock 285/35/19 in the rear but I am torn between the 275/35/19 or the 265/35/19 for the fronts. I like the 275 because it's real close to the stock size, but will it bulge too much compared to the rear?

Any input on this would be awesome. I really don't know what to do, I just don't like the stock 245 stretched look...

after doing tons of research and learning about nismo fitment, i believe tire brand and type matters a lot in terms of looking square and having a bulge.

example: 285/35/19 on the front nismo wheels in RE11 is not really bulged at all, where the same size in PSS would be a huge bulge.
