You have a wheel with a 18.5 inch diameter? Really?

im guessing you mean 9.5-


I have 265/35 front 285/35 rear and like the way they look.

Oops yeah 18x9.5 ^^^ r u lowered? I was thinking 265/35 and 295/35. Is it gonna rub?

295 rear with a +3 offset will rub. You should probably run a smaller spacer in the rear, cause even a 275 will rub with that spacer.

Smaller spacer to put on a bigger tire.

My offset is +20 with a 10mm spacer in the rear. I have a slight roll in the back and think I would have to raise the car or ditch the spacer if I had a 295.


here is a pic of the space to make your own judgement if you would like.

If I'm doing +13 offset and 295 tires, will that be ok no rub?

9.5 +15 can and will rub with 275/40 without a roll at stock height.

Even with no spacer, at +28 with a 295 tire depending on your camber, you'd probably need a fender roll.

Getting fender rolled next week. So with my setup +3 offset i best go with smaller tire like 265/35/18?

Nissan puts a 265 mm tire on a 10.0 wheel. And you want a 295 mm tire on a 9.5 inch wheel?
