you shouldn't.. i know it clears fine... first whip looks hot.....second...the bumps, you either going over them to fast (gotta respect the wheel, you just spent some bread on these so treat them with respect and dignity..lol), or you need struts....is it just the rear or the front that rubs....

New rims - brings up good point about aesthetics
Over years, have had trouble with after market wheels not fitting or working right...not hubcentric and other differences in AM vs. OEM. Be careful. Anyone had any experience with refinishing factory rims?/ Repaint or ??

Get 2 or 3 piece wheels. They are made specifically for your car. And if you have custom suspension or a big brake kit they will build them around that as well.

you can run the 10.5 up front with a 42 off set but you going to have to stretch the the tire..a 245/35/20 or a 255/35/20... a 275 up front will rub... ALSO as stated before it will look good but not really practical for daily driving...

Thanks staggered, should I do the 255 tire size all the way around or should I put the 275 on the back? I want the car to look uniform. I don't want the back tires to look bigger then the front ones. Will the 275 make that much of a difference?
Just got them Stillen big brakes, and put em behind my Lorenzos

Its cool with me bro.. It trips me out when guys act like mods or rims are top sercret or something. Yeah im lowered on BC coilovers.. They work great as far as adjusting your ride height and they handle great to.

If you plan on running the 10.5 all the way around I would do the 255 all the way around. No benefit in staggering the tire if wheels are same size. Just know you are going to have some lip sticking out of the tire. Some people like the stretch look, not my cup of tea..

2012 nissan maxima on vossen rims
at the car wash getting my baby ah wash just the start more ungrades to come
The cost is nearly half of what the other two were, the MOZ Modena total cost was $5400, the AM Prime Forged was $4800......not going to happen!
But now the Vossen VS078 Rims tires mounted and shipped $2230 and the TSW Jarama Rims/Tires/TPMS Mounted and shipped $2132. I am the middle of the decision process as we speak and will have new rims on the way at the end of today!

most likely going to be going with 20x8.5 all around wanted to make sure going with 255/35/20 tires all around will be okay to go with since this is my DD and I don't want it to rub also will be on stock suspension
