the lower the offset number the farther they stick out so jus make sure the back has a lower number then da front.. cause the front stick out more already..

WRONG. It is the combination of width AND offset which dictate the amount of protrusion. In this case, you want a LOWER offset in the front than the rear because of the difference in width. One inch equates to 25.4mm or about 12-13mm added to each side of the centerline. In order to match the front of 8.5 +35 with a 9.5 rear, you would need a +47 offset in the rear to match the front.

However, the maxima (with no camber) is about 10-15mm more sunk in the rear. It is usually desirable to run at least -1-1.5 degrees of camber in the front. Those sizes are fine.

Run 225 in the front and 245 rear. Roll your rear fenders for clearance.

thanks for the input guys.
perk your max was sex on wheels when you were on dubs, to bad you couldn't run the z32 calipers with them.
