^^ If your Nismo wheels are 18x8.5” front, and 18x9.5”rear, tire sizes are:
245/40-18” front and 275/40-18” rear.
You’re installing a very nice setup. Let us know what you think after driving on it for awhile.

i was thinkin since my stock wheels are 18's and all i'll be doing is going wider... should i keep 'em at the 45 series? or should i go down to the 40?
sorry to thread jack... im just very lost

^^ You have VDS so it’s essential to keep close to the stock overall diameter which is: 25.9" front and 26.7" rear.
Your wheel width determines the tire width you can mount.
What size wheels do you have? (I'm guessing 18x8")
