I was originally going to do 275's in the front and 315's in the rear, but I think I'll go with 265's in the front since I've heard some regret going as big as 275. Plus that way my diameter ratio is perfect.
That setup looks pretty slick. You're getting spacers for BBK though still?

the 275 isnt too bad. Its just so wide it soaks up the steering feel a bit more.
as for bbk ill need a 7-8mm spacer to clear these wheels with the oem akebono. I found a neat pair of hubcentric spacers with a 73mm outer for aftermarket wheels. With that ill also install extended studs when doing the bbk.

Fronts can actually handle more aggressive offsets than the rear lol. Usually doesn't work that way.

Fitment looks great. FYI... There's a small bump/hump on the upper front side of the front plastic fender liner that should be ground off. At the height your currently at you'll definitely rub there until you grind it off or until it wears down on its own. You may also need to trim the rear felt fender liners if you haven't done it already.

First two pics are of my original set up with 275's in the rear and 245's with 15 mm spacers up front. Eventually went to 285's in the rear and 255's with 10 mm spacers up front with the same wheel set up.
This is my current set up with 305's in the rear (with the rear fenders widened 1-1/2" over stock) and 255's up front with 10 mm spacers. This is obviously much lower than I usually run the car but I had to show off my air bags for the show.

Thanks man. Much appreciated! Unfortunately I never started a build thread, so you won't find one. When I first bought the car this forum was just getting started so there wasn't really many people on it yet. G35driver was still the popular forum back then, so you'd have to go there to find the threads that show most of my early modifications.
