No problem you can run 245s (F) and 255s (R) without issues and you'll enjoy how the 245s make your front end more stable at speed. Never understood why Nissan likes running those 225 on the front?

I ran 275s on the rear so you're good.

+1 on 245/255
You might get away with 265 but personally I wouldn't go bigger then 255, especially if you drive your car hard.

I'm curious how those 235's look on the rear. Most 245's look anorexic, can't see how 235's look good

No one mentioned 235s, they're not even large enough to add the needed stability to the front....

+1 245 in front. 245,255,265,275 all fit the rear. Just a matter of choice. 265 and 275 may consider 35 series to closely match original diameter.

You NEED a 35 series sidewall if you go over 255. Or else you're only going to increase tire roll aka make the cornering squishy. If that's what you want, you need to give up on track events.

I do not recommend anything larger than a 265/35 fro the rear.

I wouldn't even go over 245 to be honest. They're only 8" wide.

I would say 100% maximum is a 255/40. But personally I wouldn't run that.

that's true, it is only 8". I'm just used to running wide tires on my s14- 235f/265r. might as well just stay with the stock fitment. thanks for the info!
