thats what im being told. but if you do the tire calculator thing. 245/35 is .849% to fast and 275/30 is 1.885% and 235/35 is 1.960% when compared to 225/45/18.

well to be honest your wheels (even with a 20mm spacer) just aren't that aggressive. the stretched tire and camber helps clear the fenders but it seems like with your sizes and offsets you really wouldn't need either.

19x8 +37 for the fronts? people are fitting 2+ inches wider with single or less digit offsets

19x9 +45 even with the 20 mm spacer is not even aggressive if you were to move it to the front. I suggest doing a little research of what everyone else is running and get a new set of wheels.

just trying to be helpful!

I wouldn't try to stretch tire with that wheel size and your car. maybe 225 all around. front won't be but the back will.

Nice! You make me want to get 12" rears now. Any rubbing going on there? What's a safe offset with a wheel that wide for a slammed Z33?

actually the 235 is a better match , the 245 would be the proper tire to run with the proper rear tire 275/35-19.

Thanks. Yeah, I rubbed but the fenders are rolled now and no more rubbing issues. I'm only an inch lower on the rear. How low are you wanting to go?
