I have an 04 coupe with new wheels on the way, car is lowered on 350z GF210 springs and the new wheel specs are 20x9 and 20x11 +15 all of the way around. I was thinking about running 245/35 up front and either 275/30 or 285/30 in the rear but cant decide which tires would be a better fit for the rear to prevent rubbing on bumps and dips and so on, the rear fenders do have a mild roll already. any input would be appreciated.

The rims are staggered fitment, 20x8.5 front, and 20x10 rear.

Edit: Discount Tire says that if I get the staggered fitment that the rear wheels will stick out way too far and may cause damage to the fenders or something. Is this true or does this person just not know what they're talking about? I really want to get the staggered fitment, he is suggesting getting the 8.5's all the way around.
Discount tire only knows how to charge too much for tires. you're fine

30 is a shorter sidewall. but when you have 20s, 30 series tires match your speedometer better. it all depends on how much stretch and how much you like your speed to match how fast you really are going.

245/35 is too tall. try a 235/35 or even 235/30 for the front. either sizes in the rear will be okay

Hi guys. Just a quick question. I have my STOCK OEM 18 inch wheels in my 03 g35 coupe(Premium Package) here in Canada. And i am planning to buy a bnew set of tires this coming spring. At the front i want my tire size to be 255 or 245 by 40 or 35 and at the rear i like is 275/35 or 265/30. Is this possible? I am a noob about wheel sizes and offsets. So can anyone Suggest a good tire size as well? Thank you very much for you're response.

I am planning to get hankook or BFgoodrich since they are the cheapest ones for me so far.

Any body heard about the brand NANKANG? I heard that they are chinese. They are the cheapest of all! Anyone had feedbacks about these tires?

had a friend that had nankang and he didnt have any issues he used them as dailys, but we never really pushed his car in the turns or anything. as for your new tire sizes you were wondering about i think they might be too beefy for oem sizes but i could be wrong.

Got some wheels that are 19x8.5 +25 F and 19x10.5 +32 R. Not lowered at the moment and probably wont be for a while. What size spacers should I get for a somewhat flush fitment? I was thinking a 15MM F and 5-10MM R. Plan on having a 245-35 front and 275-35 rears. Thanks for the help.

*Those offsets are just a guess I feel that might have been best, but I'll change later with more research.
**This is for a '06 Coupe.

Thanks for all your help, and I'll be posting up some more when I have some more questions.

I'm just quoting this to get some help. Thanks.
