I have 265/35 R18'S on mine, there is a little bit of room left and mine is lowered slightly, so you could always try. Just ask if the seller whether you can return them if they don't fit.

The other thing that is REALLY important is the radius of the tyres, the front and back have to match exactly otherwise you will have problems with the 4WD. You should check this between those these new ones.

slim matt: when you say radius do you mean the rim its self cause they are both 19" i think my biggest worry is the offset. Your ones have a lagger offset of +35 does that make them sit in more? and if these new ones are +22 does that mean they sit out more? and your saying yours have only a little bit of space left does that mean that mine will have shit all left?

the more negative offset, the further the wheel will stick out the guard.

so +22 will stick further out than +35, but +35 is a tad to much posive offset anyway for a gtr, that would suit a gtst

since the gtr has wider guards you need less offset to "fill" the guards, so with your gtr a +22 offset wheel that should sit fine.

imo something around the +10 to +15 offset would look good, without getting you into trouble

the radius is the rolling diameter of the rim and tyre wall height. Since your running both 19 inch rims just make sure you match up the correct profile if your having different width tyres cause the tyres wall height is determined by the profile and width of the tyre. If your not sure just run it past a tyre shop and they make sure its all sweet for you

cheers

265 is the width of the tyre in mm, 35 is the percentage of the width that the wall equals, ie 95.4mm. R means that they are radials and the 18 means the rim diameter in inches.You are worried about rolling circumference of the tyre(radius), if they differ between front and rear you have probs with 4WD.

    • Really, anyone modifying a car isn't being financially smart. We're doing it for the things we love. And honestly, a high revving, light, NA car is actually pretty darn fun. I used to have a Swift Sport, and I miss that thing as a daily, and yes, doing something like some intake and exhaust stuff would have made minimal gains, but would have bought an even bigger smile

    • Yeah, playing with naturally aspirated is not smart bang for your buck power wise, but then I've never been known for being smart when it comes to cars and modifications 
    • I mean from V8 world there are gains to be made in intakes and such over stock items, but definitely only if you tune them. We're talking about I dunno, 10kw here and there on a 300KW v8, gains made by tuning in the 0.2 AFR that it changes so YES but also no you won't notice it other than the sound. Duct the air as mentioned 750,000 times and you will notice happier IAT's which definitely make a difference N/A. I mean my unsubstantiated guess is you'd go from 140kw with everything stock (after cams) to 145kw with everything and a tune :p
    • I decided to "spend baby spend", and "risk it for the biscuit" 2 Orders were made buying parts that I "don't really need but really really want" totalling $2.5k AUD 1: In stock items (intake plenum and throttle body) 2: The airbox thingie, with no real ETA for them getting more stock, so patience will be required
