Why 45's? Are you off-roading or rock crawling?

Front will be fine , the rear may need a slight roll depending on how camber is set.

Looking to buy Rota Torque 18x9.5 +20 for all 4 corners. Everything is original now, stock 350z Touring 18x8 +30's. I read a lot about the Rota's fitting, but calculators show the Rota's sticking out 29mm more than stock rims. Visually, this just looks like a rubbing issue waiting to happen. Appreciate any feedback.

New Setup
-Tire size (Front 255/40/18, Rear 275/40/18)
-18x9.5 +20 (Front and Rear)
-Camber spec (? - Not sure, most likely standard alignment)
-Stock height, not lowered

Thanks

Ok. Thanks. This must be an optical illusion. The stock rim/tire edge is almost at the fender.

When your suspension compresses, the wheels will camber in, giving the tire enough clearance to avoid the fender.

Question Will this rub?

Ok so sort-of a multi part question as I figure out what to do here. Goal is performance and looks (mostly performance).

I'm probably looking to lower my car on RS-R shocks in the Spring, but I need new tires soon and I'm looking at either a 285/35/19 or 275/35/19 rear and 265/40/18 front on Nismo rims

So basically:
-Car lowered on RS-R springs, .6" front and rear
-285/35/19 tires in back, 265/40/19 in front
-19x10" +30 rear, 18x9" +30 front wheels
-Camber spec (don't know, but as close to standard as possible I guess)

Will it rub at all (in any situation) AND will VDC be fine with either a 285 or 275/35/19 rear and 265/40/18 front or will one of the above sizes not work?

Thanks!

Thanks!
