So, initially, I said I was going to get +25 offsets. After doing some more looking around (not 100% sold on the GT-1’s)…I found this post on the M forum. He is NOT running spacers and like most M’s, he’s dropped on Eibach’s which are a reported 1.6" F and 1" R. > [@redline122"](#): > > **Car Model:** 2008 M45S > > **Wheel Brand/Dimensions:** [Vossen VVS-085](http://www.vossenwheels.com/vossen-wheels-vvs085.html) > \>\> FRONT: 20x9, +38mm offset > \>\> REAR: 20x10.5, +45mm offset > > **Tire Brand/Dimensions:** Falken FK-452 > \>\> FRONT: 255/35r20 > \>\> REAR: 285/30r20 > > **Suspension:** Stock shocks with Eibach Pro-Kit springs (published drop 1.6" front, 1.0" rear) > > **Other Information:** Slight camber and toes issues caused inside tread wear; helps to flip tires every 3K miles; G37 Brake Upgrade with D/S rotors and Hawk HPS pads; See also this [thread](http://forums.nicoclub.com/springs-wheels-and-brakes-oh-my-here-s-my-2008-m45-hi-res-pics-t487209.html) for more chatter > > **Pictures:** > > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/ace8d68a.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/c/8/c88420b26c1fcc3c9e1c6bc062f087ae94ca9daa.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/884a6a1b.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/e/a/eaaf1657001e8e20d46f4ad1650b0680b2c1aac9.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/b6b69369.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/0/6/0656af3472e5eb5f5542f90d47f6865047f2875a.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/f008841d.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/9/d/9d23c163db543c4d13c07c701f1c7de40dc1e959.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/264aded1.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/0/a/0ac304d5f3627d79b21b182fc9676448069a2770.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/644ed6e5.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/4/e/4ed7bbb773c0dbec3c516bc83e8695f235ce1038.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/b288d2a5.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/1/e/1ed6f9f75cea7da7beff4e465f61e0d76adaffde.jpeg) > ![http://i776.photobucket.com/albums/yy48/redline122/The%20Beast%20-%20M45/a4b0d914.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/4/2/4218066515409d332f1c2ba58c578276c3d50f33.jpeg) I guess I should be aiming for something around between +35-40.

Yeah if you go 20x10 in the rear than you’ll need spacers or offset around 30-35, personally a 25 would fit nice ---

But he’s not running spacers and his rears look fine? He’s got a +45 offset. Since my rim is half an inch less wide, I’d assume a +38 or so would give the same look. No? I don’t want my tires sticking an inch out…I want it to look just like that ^^^. ---

His are sunk in like an inch, and I’d guess like 10-15mm to compensate for the 1/2" smaller wheel ---

Spacers, dude! Go with the original +25 offset, FOR SURE. It will look SUPER nice and youre not gonna end up with that dubber poke where the rim is out 2 inches from the fenders. Yes you’ll end up with negative camber, you lower a car, u get camber. IDK about ur car, but take a look if anyone makes a camber kit, if you’re concerned about that. Toe SHOULD be corrected, youre not racing, its a daily. I’m sure you know this, but after lowering it, get an allignment, but some things MAY still change a tiny bit as the springs settle into their final position. You will most likely end up having to rotate the tires as you do oil changes, like that dude. It’s all normal though. ---

Okay. It’s just when I said I was looking at +25 wheels, everyone on the M forum went: :wow I didn’t get any negative effects of lowering the Maxima…does it depend on the springs and drop amount whether you get camber out of spec, etc.? ---

normally the lower you go to more camber you get. my car has a little bit, but its not problematic. if you want i can take some pics of what it looks like so you can look. my drop is not what youd call slammed. its close to what you’d want on your car. let me know if you want to see it.
