Nismo Wheel Question

With these offsets, will I need purchase other rear tires as I still have the 05 stock ones...

2x Front Wheel Specifications18x8.5 +25 Offset
2x Rear Wheel Specifications 18x9.5 +30 Offset

Even if I do, are these alright offsets?

You could probably go more aggressive than that on the offset or at least get some spacers.

Tires - The rears will be stretched a lot if you have the stock 245s. Probably usable, just not the best idea.

Offset - Still kind of weak, I would suggest around 10mm spacers at least.

Tires? Doesn't NISMO recommend tire sizes anymore?

Recommended sizes for the those are 245/40/18 front, 275/40/18 rear. Get new tires, the stock ones are no good on these wheels.

I just got my Nismo wheels 9.5 all around, I have never used a spacer before and don't know much about sizes, which would be the appropiate size to use?
