If you are searching for Nissan 240SX wheel fitment, Rota Wheels P45R on a Nissan 240SX, 17x9 +12 wheels on a 240SX, or what tire size goes with that setup, this build is a real-world answer, photographed and measured by the owner.

Rota Wheels P45R 17x9 +12 specs (staggered)

The wheels are 17-inch in diameter and 9 inches wide with a +12 offset up front, and 17-inch by 9.5 inches at +12 in the rear.

A +12 offset on a 9-inch wide wheel puts the wheel face in a very aggressive position at or past the fender. Lower offset moves the wheel outward; higher offset tucks it in. The rear +12 offset on the 9.5-inch wheel keeps the rear in line with the front.

225/45R17 / 235/45R17 tires on 17x9 wheels

The tire size is 225/45R17 front and 235/45R17 rear: a 225 mm section width with a 45 aspect ratio on the 17-inch wheel, which gives a square fit (tire and wheel are about the same width, the clean look most people go for).

The owner chose Federal SS595. We stock Ironman IRON iMOVE Gen 3 AS 225/45ZR17XL at $85 each in this size, and other 225/45R17 tires through the 225/45R17 tire search.

Searching for 225/45R17 tires on a Nissan 240SX, or the right tire size for 17x9 +12 wheels? This is one owner's proven combination, and every wheel and tire package we sell ships mounted, balanced and ready to bolt on.

Suspension, stance and clearance

The car is lowered on coilovers, which lets the owner dial in ride height and camber to clear 17x9 +12 and get the flush look.

No rubbing at all, front or rear, no spacers, pulled and rolled fenders. Rolling or pulling the fender is what most owners do once the wheel sits this close; it keeps the tire from catching the lip over bumps.

Stance: flush. The wheel face lines up with the fender. Flush fitment on a Nissan 240SX comes down to the offset and width above; copy them and you get the same result.
