2KSE Offset- Need Help

I was told the offset for our 17" wheels is +45mm.
I this true? Does that mean we can't put 20mm offset rims on there? Even if the lug and bolt pattern is the same?

stock is 45 offset... 20 will not work. You need a wheel with offset between 35 and 45.

The lower the offset the more it will sit out of the fender well... I have 38+mm on mines that is is perfect imo... I don't think anything lower then 38+ is recommended. Out bolts pattern is 5X114.3.

Aren't emax02's SSR Integrals 18x8's with a 35mm offset? They look good.

I was told that the offset on SE wheels is 40mm, not 45, 45 on the GLE 02 and 03 wheels. Maybe i'm wrong, but check your owners manual. Nissan tells you everything about the wheels on your car. Chris
