You'll be fine throw a 225-40-18 tire on
But to be honest no one will know for sure you'll have to play with it to get it how you like. Most people say "make the wheels fit" which goes back to what I said you'll have to play with it experiment.
THIS!! Front 18x8.75 +35 Rear 18x9.75 +20 Tires 245-40-18 all around
and THIS!!!!! 18x8.75 +20 18x9.75 +20 Tires 225-40-18 all around

Do it ... don't do it .... do what you want lol .. I happen not to like that style rim on maxima's.
But I have xxr 521's 18x10's all around and running 235/40's

They will fit fine but remember wide wheels only look good if you go LOW, that dark grey maxima pictured on the 2nd post in this thread is not nearly low enough thats why it doest look right. The cream colored max with the blue wheels has a more appropriate drop and as you can see it looks A LOT better.

im reaaaally looking into getting varrstoen 2.2.1 in 18x10.5 +30 all around (as of yesterday).. will that be too much for the front? i know "simpleNclean" is running same size but +25 offset.. im just worried its gonna require a TON of work to dial in lol suggestions?

I have 18x8.5" rims with a 245/40 on. I wish I had went a little wider on the rim and got 255/40 to have a bit more traction because of hte turbo....but the 245/40 grip pretty good. I seen a Maxima with 19's and 255/30 and they did not rub at all.

Stupid? that is you're opinion so i can't argue that but whoever told you its unsafe is lying to you. It CAN be unsafe but lets real here who would put a 195 or 205 tire on a 8.5 or 9 inch wide wheel? I have safely stretched tires on my daily driver for over 2 years now and i drive in all types of roads and environments and i don't drive like a grandma and i have had no issues and i get compliments all the type (18x9 wheels ALL AROUND wrapped in 225/40 Falken tires).

thats your opinion.. but if done correctly without ridiculous stretch and camber, it is perfectly safe. stretch and poke has always been a good taste of mine.
my brother is an accord guy and this is his idol lol pics on his phone and all.. isnt this guy in Royal Origin as well? and the "OOF!" hellaflush videos..?
....i love you.
haha i know right?! its XXR.. i guess they can do whatever they want lol everyone just labels em as 18x10 though.

Staggered fitment gives it a RWD look when obviously our cars are FWD so id say get the SAME width all around and go with 225/40/18
