Staggered Tires on Sedan??

Is is possible to use a staggered set up such as the coupe uses on the sedan with the different width rims??

Not recommended if you have a G35X though.

Search around, lots of us have that.

I have 20x8.5 and 20x10 with 245/35 front and 275/30 rear.

on the topic of staggered.

this is for an 03.5 sedan w/350z drop and sport suspension.

Front Wheel-Ruff 279 18x8.5 w/35mm offset Tire-245/40/18 Falken FK-452
Rear Wheel-Ruff 279 18x9.5 w/35mm offset Tire-275/40/18 Falken FK-452

I'm mainly concerned w/the offset and the size of the rear tire fitting.

I would bet those rears are going to rub. That rim offset is too aggressive for the sedan.

No way. It should be more like +45mm.

38 in the front will work fine but 40 in the rear will stick out too much if you have a 9.5" rim it would work with an 8.5 but that wouldn't be an aggressive staggarded setup. You are better off getting a +45 in the rear
