I can pick up for a great price a set of NISMO LMGT4s! in bronze
they are 18x8.5 with a 25mm offset!!!!! these are going to poke 1.75 inches from stock.
Can someone with stock wheels mounted measure and let me know how much they will protrude from the wheel wells.
if its really close, I'm going to get them

Oir stock rims are +40 offset, but do not protrude from the wheel wells. They are flush.

Our stock rims aren't flush, they're sunken in.
How much I have no idea, but it definitely isn't flush. Look at any dropped spec and it's even more noticeable.
Monster truck mode is a little harder to see though.

our stock rims are 17 x 7 +50mm...
i went to 18 x 8.5 +45mm and that is PERFECTLY flush.
that is the limit on the car, im thinking of running 18 x 8 +32mm if they can clear my brakes.

here is about how far ur wheels "should" stick out.
to be honest i think it looks pretty horrible.
i dont think anyone in their right mind runs a +25 offset on a sentra...

Agreed. Also if it sticks out too much you are just going to get more self inflicted rock chips and the side of you car looking dirty from all the dust you fling up.

isnt the stock offset +50?
Yeah if there going to hang out an inch I dont want them. but it is a bad ass wheel and for $800 a set its a steal
Rako, thanks for the picture. is that your car? so 18x8.5 +45 stick out beyond the body

I'm running 18x8.5s with a 35mm offset and I'm perfectly flush, so It must depend on the type of wheel. Check my showoff page for an example.

brake clearance is wheel specific not size specific

ya I realize that but the farther you go the less wheels are gonna fit. just saying that my particular wheels barely fit so maybe some otheres won't specially if you have a lower offset.
