Help with wheel specs. (Will this rub)
I am interested in a set of 19" es6's.
I'm thinking 19x9.5 +22 in the front and 19x11 +25 for the rear.
and for tires maybe: Front 255/35/19 & Rear 285/35/19?
I'm on stock suspension/height and I don't really plan on lowering.
Will I rub and or need a roll
? Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated!
Available wheel specs:
19×9.5 +22 5×114.3
19×9.5 +12 5×114.3
19×11 +25 5×114.3
19×11 +15 5×114.3

You may need a slight roll in the back, just depends on alignment. There is 1 full degree from max to min in OEM alignment specs. This difference can make it clear or rub.

Just got my nismo 370z wheels installed. As of right now it's at stock height and suspension. Plan on lowering somewhere around 1" in front and 1.5" in rear later this year. Running stock nismo size 245 40 and 285 35, also running 20mm spacer in front nothing in rear.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but to go through 75 pages to maybe find it is painful.
I'm planning to put my wheels on in the next few weeks the specs are iirc:
Front: 19x9.5 +4
Rear: 19x10.5 +5
I have coilovers so I can adjust it no problem and I will get my rear quarter panels rolled since I'm sure I'll need to.
My question is what tire sizes should I be looking at as far as clearance and not too much stretch?
I was set on Front: 245/35/19, Rear: 275/35/19 , but I've seen some saying 255 up front works better? I don't know.
Would the 245's and 275's be stretching a lot or would it be just a little stretch? Pretty much my main concerns are rubbing and too much stretch because I really don't want the tires to unbead while driving.

^^ Front: 245/35/19, Rear and 275/35/19 tires are within spec for Front: 19x9.5 and Rear: 19x10.5 wheels. 10 mm is only a fraction of an inch.
+5 is an aggressive offset; you can examine examples of this setup on this site.

I think I posted this several pages back. My Z on 19x10/11 +10 with 245/35-275/35s. It doesn't really look stretched in the rear but fronts have a moderate stretch, definitely not fat looking. It's perfect for what I wanted and the tires cleared the fenders with a slight roll.

Awesome! Thanks mr. sparco and Spike.
Since you're running 11 in the rear and I'm at 10.5 I'm assuming the +10 and +5 ends up being approximately the same; meaning mine should fit fine as yours did. Do you remember what camber you are running just for reference?

But I am on a little smaller width then what you posted
and thats a 285 in the rear and 245 front handles very nice

Quick Wheel Question
Hey guys I gave a quick question. I am thinking of getting some 19 inch wheels to replace the stock 17s on my 350z. I found a good deal on Craigslist but am worried the wheels might be to narrow. Would getting 19 inch wheels that are 7 inches in width look strange? The tires on them are 225/35/19 and the wheel brand is 5zigen and they have a +48 offset. They are also not staggered. Please let me know.
