Wow, that looks better than I expected considering I thought the 19/20 looks perfect.

I'd considering going the same route as well, but when I threw on a NT05r for my rears before on a 20" wheels, it was a little sketchy in the rain (I daily drove my Z06). Do you have any seat time with this setup when raining?

I found these weights in another thread.

Apparently black cups are Front: 25.5 lb , Rear: 28 lb so there is a little bit of savings there at the back.

Looks sinister. Rear offset definitely looks better than OEM and gives the car a nice stance.

I wanted to check in again after looking at tires. You mentioned your tires where 275/30/19 and 345/30/19. I wanted to ask is the front actually a 275/35/19? Nitto makes the nto5 in both sizes but with front and rear being over 1inch difference in OD I was wondering if you had a 35 on the front. Maybe because it's not a awd car but with awd you can't really run a setup that's beyond 1 inch OD with throwing codes or potentially messing up the diffs (at least with a GTR).

The front is a 275/30/19 no codes or drive-ability problems. I love this set up.

Thanks for replying so fast!

I'm in the process of securing a set of 19x10/19x12.5 wheels (different brand than yours) but wasn't sure how the OD would affect this car since its a difference of 1.85 inches front to rear. I literally just posted a new thread asking about it since with AWD cars like the GTR you can't really go over 1% OD without making things angry.
