Ok, so original Nismo rear wheel offset is 23mm. With 325s, my tires are flush with the fender (no spacers). A 345 is 20mm wider than a 325, so that means it would stick out an extra 10mm on each side.

Taking all that into equation, the ideal offset sould be between 30-35mm.

So, a 19x12 +30 with a 345 would be a pretty flush fitment.

I would suggest going with 20s however. A 345/25R20 is within 0.2% overall diameter of the original 285/35R19s. The 345/30R19 is 1.1% larger which is no big deal, but with these sizes, my opinion is that 20s would look better.

Thanks brother!! That helps a lot really appreciate it.. I also need to take into consideration my rear alignment specs they are as follows -2.14 camber .10 toe
With that in mind would 19 12 +35 be the right fitment?
