what spacers to make 19x8.5 +35 flush?

I have 19' nismo a34's (19x8.5 +35 all around) on my second gen sedan. What spacers do I need to make the tires and rims exactly in line with the fender for both the fronts and rears (not one bit sticking out)? Never dealt with spacers before. I am looking for the look in the attached picture. It's a coupe but you get the idea. Thanks!

Well I can't take a pic now because the rims aren't on the car lol. Took them off and put my stocks back on for the winter. This pic is from another member (blkdragon) on driver (not my car but same rims, same offsets). Shows the rears. Couldn't find a decent front shot.

I think 10mm or 15mm should be fine.. but it all depends on your drop, tire size, etc.

Are you lowered or not? And yea.....tire specs, what springs you are on all make a difference and would help give you a better answer

I'm lowered on coils...roughly the same amount as you see the g sedan lowered with the nismo rims in the attached pic above (1.5 finger gap). Tires are 245/40/19 all around.

There are much better with the math on this than me. But my guess is that you will need more in the front than the rear. I'm guessing 15 rear, maybe 20 front.

Do you have a caliper? Just measure from the sidewall out to the fender. Ruler works just as well, just a little harder to see, but nothing bad.

I'd measure mine since your car and mine are almost the same, but as mentioned above the differences in tire widths (and models) will have an impact. FWIW i'm on Hankook V12's, 255/40.

But let me know if you want me to measure anyway and/or take a sample shot.
