some one told me it should work if i get a 35 mm off set for the rear on the 19"8.5"
If you're talkin' different wheel and tire sizes front and rear I'm fairly sure you'll be 'staggered' all right...unless your car's a FWD ONLYor RWD ONLY you'll be 'staggered' by serious drivetrain problems. If I'm understanding you correctly, you're going for the traditional RWD performance look of bigger wheels and tires in the rear. Unfortunately, the Nissan 350Z and the Infiniti G35 used to model the wheels you're interested in are both RWD ONLY. I'm pretty sure that anything other than the same wheels/tire setup all the way around on an AWD car will cause major (read expensive) problems. At the v. least you'll need the diameter of ALL FOUR wheels and tires to be exactly the same.
