Default Question about the 18" 19" Nismo Wheels.

I have the nismo verison wheels because i live in vancouver canada, so we don't have the real nismo Z.. but we do get the wheels for it but look slightly different. the wheels dimension is 18"x9" and 19"x10" with +30 offset (correct me if i am wrong)

here's the question, my question is.. well.. i have 255/40/18 in the front and 275/35/19 in the back, will 289 or 295 fit the rear wheel? and yes i have the h&r coilover, so it is lowered.

just wondering if it's possible because i love traction and i like that thick tire look in the rear even though my car doesn't need it.

thanks in advance

If you are going to go from a 275 to 295 mm tire, look at the car and see if there is room for an additional 5 mm on each side.

You really want a member to guarantee "yes" with your money?

I believe the rears of the NISMO are 19x10 +30. Assuming that's the case, a 285 or 295 should fit without issue. 285 would be ideal.

I have 285 on mine and have room for a 295 if needed without a issue.

oops, 285 i mean.
ohh okay..

thanks guys, hope i can get more "yes" hahahah~
because i have 275 on.. and it looks stretched..
i don't like how that looks, but a 255 in the front, where the tires comes out more than the rim is what i like.

if someone can post their nismo wheels with 285 or 295 picture, it would be perfect!!

thanks in advance again~
