You definitely wont need spacers. The front will be perfectly in line with the fender. The rear however... that is a quite agressive offset for a 9.5" wide wheel. I have +45 and it is a tad inside the fender. The +35 on the rear is going to stick out, and depending on how you feel about the look, you MIGHT have to run an excessive amount of camber to make it look right.

Can offsets be adjusted? I remember them saying something about "35 to 38mm". Does 10mm make that much difference? And what is camber?

Your camber is how much negative or positive your tires are angled. So if you have a negative camber your tires are going to ride un-even with more weight on the inside of the tire. If you have no camber the tire will ride perfectly flat and if you have positive camber your car is going to ride more on the outside of the tire. Our cars have a negative camber which is why the inside of our tires wear faster than the outside.

You cant really adjust offset, its the way the wheel is built. I think you can add spacers behind your brake rotor and it will allow the wheel to stick out however much further (kind of like adding washers on a screw and then tightening it...the screw wont go in as far due to the washers adding the extra space).

Camber can be adjusted, but not with the factory arms toes and cambers. You would have to go aftermarket (stillen for example) and they make adjustable parts... so you can either have no camber or you can add negative camber to the car.

I have the 18" LMGT4s with the same offsets. IMO, offsets are perfect You'll be just fine.

Remember these are Nismos that Nissan recommends for the Zs and Gs.

So you have a rear 9.5 +35 on a sedan and it looks fine? Doesn't stick out at all?

How did we start talking about sedan? The original question concerned a coupe. I have a coupe. Wheels are on a coupe. Fit Great on a Coupe Rears are +30mm, fronts are +25.

Why did this thread get so mixed up. When a thread starts out talking about a coupe - Keep it about a coupe. Sedan - Keep it sedan. Two different cars. Stop mingling different models in the same thread. I was responding to the ORIGINAL question.
