Putting stock rear wheels on the front of your car gives tons of tire clearance (plus a little bit of poke, minus lots of camber). The front wheels mounted in the rear will be a little sunk. A spacer would fix that if you care about aesthetics. But at nismo ride height, everything clears fine with no rub.

With the stock sport wheels reversed front to rear, you can easily fit 295/315 Hoosiers.
