P10 tire fitting
I have a set of the nismo/rays engineering wheels from the b15 sentra. There specs are 17", 7.5 width, and 47mm offset. My question is, can 225/35/17's fit, with or without spacers? Oh yeah, I'll be lowering to g on hks springs with gr2's. I want wide tires, and these have the exact same height as stock.
Any input or info would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

The height isn't going to be the concern. The width is. Best I can figure, your not going to know really until you can get them and try and bolt them up to the car. The GR2's spring perch is fairly large and that is where your most likely to rub/hit with the tire. You'd probably have better luck with running a set of coilovers than springs and struts.

A wheel with that high of a positive offset on a P10 is going to cause problems with the rear of P10. You are going to need coilovers to clear the spring perches.

We ran 215-40-17 on a super low car ...with a +40 offset and it was close .... That +47 is going to be tough ... you will probably have to run a spacer on the rear at least !!

Hmmm, aftermarket wheels & HP10's have always been a tricky & touchy topic due to their suspension design. Plus old rear struts & top hats also can be a contributor to negative camber making wheels hit the strut perch.

So this topic I will come back on as info breaks for me to pass to you, -Me
