Will the nismo 17 x 7.5 with + 47 offset fit ok? Most of the wheels I see people here use have a offset of +42 - +45.

Should be okay. You might have to use a 5mm spacer to bring it to +42mm if there's any tire rub inside the wheel well.

Looks like I'll find out. Ordered the nismo wheels yesterday. Aslo ordered some 225/45 tires. We'll see how they work. Just hope they don't hurt my mpg too much.

Wheels from ebay, tires from tirerack. Was going to go with versaspeed while they are on sale, but after their unreal shipping, I saved nearly $100 going to someone else. I like to support our sponsers but ...

Don't know if it's too late to make changes to your order, but going with 215/45R17 tires will give you about the exact same speedometer reading as the stock 185/65R15 tires.

Yes I know, but could not get that size in the tire i got. Besides my speedo reads a little fast anyway and I think the little bit of difference will bring it down close to right. I got the Kumho Ecsta LX Platinum all season tire with a 60,000 mi warranty.
