Under International Tease Laws.

This violates Section 3a since it shows a full rim.

Real pretty, but...
Another staggered set-up on a front wheel drive vehicle.
Somewhere along the line people have lost touch with the real reason to upgrade wheels and tires. Call me old school, but my goal with new wheels is to lighten the unsprung load and provide a platform for the best tire.

lol im not running 275. whats the cost of a 275 tire?
all 4 rims that are 19x9.5 +45 are running 245/35/19. my rears would probably rub if i had 275.
im getting 245/35/19 @ $130 per tire

i used your pics as basis to push the envelope. the 275s are ~250ish a tire.. However, i got one heck of a deal from Craigslist and got both NEW Nitto Invos for $250

Thanks everyone. I don't have to worry too much about a winter set up as I work from home full time. If I do venture out in the snow/ice, we have the MDX and my beater Accord. The only hiccup with my wheel order is the incorrect hub rings. I have to wait for the correct ones to arrive sometime next week. In the mean time, I will try and at least one 275 mounted this weekend and see how it looks.

LOL.. Ass shots eh??? I am gonna see if I can sneak out during lunch time today to get one tire mounted. This way, we have a basis for comparison with the 245s I am running on 10mm spacers in the rear.

semi ass shots... no rubbing :0 tire is 275/35/19. the ares don't do it justice. it's much beefier looking in person compared to the 245/40 on the passenger side.

Latest update.. I do have a lil bit of rubbing from the rear bumper area and not the fender. It will be a minor mod where I need to trim back some the plastic where the CF flares are located. More pics to come later today. BTW, got all 4 wheels and tires mounted on the car last night

^ Hey man, don't trim, just heat the plastic with a heat gun and re-shape the plastic with a piece of 2x4 or something to the form you need. It's call the melt mod and it's very popular in the Nissan frontier forum to fit big tires in the front with a mild lift.

Thanks! No spacers front or rear.. I am pretty flush as is
I am loving the looks and the sidewall profiles on the 275s. If you can see it in person, it looks all business![Racing](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/racing.gif)

Looks great. I need to come see these in person sometime.
Any pics of the front? Curious to see how these fit relative to Defcon's, who theoretically has a little more poke, or is more flush, depending on how you look at it, up front because his are 9.5 wides +45.

rears are sunken by a half inch which is 12.7mm. if i bought 15mm spacers, it would be flushed. effective offset for the rears to be flushed would be 19x9.5 +30 with spacers
even with a +42 in the rear, it looks flushed with a 3mm difference from a +45 offset
i understood offsets when the lower the number, the more it pokes out. the higher offset will be sunken in
1 inch = 25.4mm

my fronts are 19x8.5 +45 and could use a 5mm spacer to make it flush.. Puppet, we can hook up any time when you are in the area or if there's a meet. I work from home and don't travel to VA anymore

And yes, the lower the offset, the further the front face from the hub.
