Hi All,

I have been checking the forum for quite sometime and just joined with you today as I wanted to share my experience with my 8th Gen 2018 Maxima the S trim and get some insights from you !

I'm Egyptian who lives in Saudi Arabia and just installed the 370z Rims on my Maxima , as most of you know the rear wheels are 19x10 which are a bit wide and looks like they are getting out of the finders. I really need your insights on the best tire fitment for the 4 wheels and whether I should roll the finders or not since I face some rubbing when I have someone sitting in the back and have a tough bump. So, long story short, if you can help me with this it will be great!
1. Currently the tires are 245/40 on the front, 255/35 in the back. What will be the best fitment minding having best performance, handling & stability, and also avoid rubbing.
2. Suspension is stock, if I installed the Eibach lowering kit, will it rub or not? And from where I can get them?
3. Should I roll the finders?

I will leave you with some pictures .

 

I have the same set up however, Im running 255.35.19 all around. Im also on Ksport Coilovers with a .5 inch of space on all corners. My rear fenders are rolled and I have 15mm spacers in the front to kind match the rear or make the rear poke out not so noticeable. I will post a picture up this evening.

 

Lovely! I just read your signature with the mods added to your car and I salute you for that (Y).

I checked some replies on the forum and some people are recommending 245/40 all around should be best fitment, what do you think? Do you recommend that I should go 255/35 or 245/40?

I look forward to some pictures of your ride though

 

How about a nice side shot? I can't determine if I like them or not yet...

 

Hi Wizzard, I have only this one from a side view.. I will shoot some new pix very soon. I found a video as well for you.

 

So far, I like what I'm seeing.

 

 

Just noticed that you have added the pictures! Looking great man!

I'm changing the tires soon, 255/35 all around is your call rather than 245/40 all around?

 

Holy crap that looks awful.

Come on people. Staggered setup on a FWD car?

Please.. please...

 

I don't like it either BUT to each their own I say! Last gen stock grey wheels look good though.

 

I personally don't care for the looks of these wheels for the maxima.. to me they seem small looking for a 19" maybe its because they're so open on the face, my SR wheels on my stock height S model seem to fill the wheel well out more ( and look better IMO )

To fix your fitment issues maybe you could find someone who would be willing to trade the 19X10s for the 19X9s and you could run a square set up? so you can get rid of the wheel poke .... just my opinion... either way good luck !

 

I had 245/45/18s & recent installed a set of 2013 370z rims (staggered) so the rear sticks out a bit. I would scrub every bump. I replaced rears with 245/40/18s & I STILL SCRUB. PLEASE HELP
