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?

KaienZ34 · 04-29-2013, 06:39 AM

Pretty sure that's just offset.

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

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...

ok I just bought 20x9.5 +25 front 20x10.5 +22
on my stock sport rays I went flush with a 30mm spacer up front and a 38 rear.

I want to know how meaty can I go and still be flush with these offsets? I am thinking 265/35 and 305/30? or larger? Please let me know the best tire height as well I don't like the taller 4x4 look!

Will the new width cancel me needing the spacers ( not the ones from my sport I'm thinking a 5mm front and a 10mm rear)? Also I am dropped on Eibachs...The pic is to give an idea how low I am... I really want the rear to have a stretched look..

Also I don't want to have to roll fenders or anything...
