This will mostly likely be me final post about wheels before I have to live with what ever I get. I don't plan to ever tuck the tire just looking for a good fit at a mild drop (nismo) with some rolling/cutting of the rear. I want to keep the camber in spec.

I'm going with the Volk GTS 19x10.5 +18 rear and 285/35/19 which I know will have some issues with fitment and fender mods. My question is what to do with the front. The rear will have the big head turning lip so less lip off the front isn't that big. Should I go with the 9.5" +17 or +30???

I've yet to read anything on fitment problems with a 255/35 on the +17 at any drop. Yet I wonder about running a 265/35 across the 9.5" front on the +30 offset. Riding on Wisconsin roads worries me and try to get the most sidewall out of the tire. I had great sucess with my Volk GTS 19x8.5 (245/40's) on my altima coupe. Looking for a repeat.

Thanks!
