I looked it up in the tire calculator and the combined difference between f&r is a little more than 1% the computer allows 3% so it would be fine, but will the 255/295 setup be ok to run with the +12 wheels?
The front tire will be taller than the rear, you will have problems. My combo has a 2.8% difference, where stock is a 2.7% difference, my combo will work perfect.
These are stock photos. Do you think it is a good idea to get the wheels BEFORE shopping for tires?

lol honestly bro, im new to the wheel world, but i posted the info given because its what i wanted and what im looking for, those wheels specifically, to answer your above question, yes they are stock photos because i dont have em yet, i want to get tires before i get the wheels. basically i wanna know what aggressive, beefy tire setup i can run with these wheels, i dont care if i gotta roll the fenders or use a camber kit (not crazy camber though), i just wanna get a tire setup that will best fit these wheels, not the nismo wheels, if i wanted those, i wouldve posted asking about tire setups for those

I ran the sizes on the tire calculator i found on the forums, with the tire setup i was asking about, the front (255/35r19) has a difference of .66% and the rear (295/30r19) has a difference of .43%, again im new to this, but if i correctly understood, you add the two percentages and if theyre less than 3% youre in the clear for your TCS/VDC right? so added they equal a 1.09% so i should be in the clear right? well if i did it correctly, however, if i change the rear to a 35 profile tire, or the front to a 30 profile tire, the difference goes up by over 3% just for that side, so i thought i found the perfect setup, but i wanted to ask since im new to the wheel world like i stated before, lmk if im correct about this. Also, will you be able to see the difference too much if you run a smaller profile tire in the rear?
255/35 and 295/30 will work just great if you don't care about handling. For that combo to work you need to have the suspension dialed well with proper sways and spring rates.

I should be more clear. I do not want you to get the NISMO wheels. I am only using these wheels-tires as an example. The tire sizes above will be good for your wheels.

ok sorry if im not getting it and its in front of my face, but why would this affect my handling?

lol ohhhh ok my bad man, thanks for the info too, so do you also think the fronts being taller by about 2mm will affect the handling?
Ok so if I roll my fenders I'll be good with that setup in the back??
Thanks for all the help/feedback guys, I really appreciate it
Will 255/35 fit good in the rear?
A good roll and I think you should be ok. I have never had to roll a fender to fit big tires (305s), but it's a large fender lip, so you will gain a lot of clearance assuming that's the only pinch point.
A 255 is not good for a rear tire on a 10.5" wheel.

goddamn it!!! lol so ok back to my starting question, what tires would you suggest up front, again im running 19x9.5 +12 up front, and the wheel setup in the rear will be 19x10.5 +12 with 295/30r19, can anyone give me a suggestion for the front that will actually look/work good with this rear setup? will the (275 or 265)/30r19 fit good up front or will it rub? i know with those sizes TCS should function correctly,the 265's show a change of 2.33% and since the room we have to work with is 3%, that plus the .43% in the rear make it pretty close to the mark, the 275 however, only has a change of 1.4% that with the rear change is only 1.83% so TCS should be ok correct? but will it rub? the 265's show a change of 2.33% and since the room we have to work with is 3%, that plus the .43% in the rear make it pretty close to the mark, the 275 however, only has a change of 1.4% that with the rear change is only 1.83% so TCS should be ok correct? if yes, how should i go about fixing that? i honestly do not want to change the wheels and id like to get that size tire in the rear. Thanks.
Are you set on the wheel offsets (already bought)?
well i havent bought them yet but yes im pretty set on them, i wanted 0 offset but theyre backordered for 3-4 months so i dont wanna wait, im set on at least the +12 offset
265/30 will work as far as electronics are concerned.
according to this: https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-...read-here.html
the 275 would work better as far as electronics go, since there is a smaller difference, BUT will they(275/30r19) rub?? if yes, how can i fix this? anyone have a similar setup? how bout the 265/30r19, will they rub?
How did we go from a 285 not fitting (without a supreme roll, then maybe it'd fit) to a 295? If you want the 10.5 +12 wheel, just get a standard 275/35/19 rear and run it with a 245/35 or 255/35 front tire.

only problem with that is that its more than a 3% difference combined so my TCS wont work
