Pretty aggressive offsets for 10.5s running 275s, +35 would be easier to fit w/out running heavy camber.

ET is explained in the last paragraph here
Wheel offset information.
But in short ET18 means +18 offset, looks to be about a perfect fit w/ the 245s in front, might shoot him a PM to confirm.

This is a great thread idea, especially for AWD owners!

I've got a 2011 G37x coupe. I plan to get a mild drop of about 1.3"F, 1"R. I want the dual concave look, so I plan to go with 19x9.5 +35; 245/40-19 all-around. I don't mind some fender or bumper trimming, but I don't want spacers. Does anybody have such a setup or know if it would be possible?

are there any X sedan owners running staggered setups? If so have you had any issues with the AWD system or drivability concerns? Also what did you run for wheels, tires and spacers? I want to keep my stock 17's for winters and want a set of summer wheels and tires. 19's or 20's are what I'll be looking for.

The following tire sizes are compatible combos, then you just need to select proper width rims to mount them on. Issues occur over 80 mph when variance front to back is more than 1%, and ideally having a slightly larger rear tire is preferred since the rears wear faster resulting in less variance over time. Also having front & rear tire mounts the same is very important, you don't want a stretch mount in front and a standard mount in rear as this will alter rolling diameter enough that issues may arise.

18s
245/45/18 & 275/40/18 (rear .07% smaller)
255/45/18 & 285/40/18 (rear .22% smaller)

19s
235/40/19 & 275/35/19 (rear .67% larger)
245/40/19 & 285/35/19 (rear .51% larger)

20s
235/35/20 & 275/30/20 (rear .07% larger)
245/35/20 & 285/30/20 (rear .07% smaller)

I have a set of 20 x 10.5 +25 all round coming in the mail in 3-4 days. What are some suggestions for tire sizes guys? Some rat A$$ tires would look nice IMO. I already know the wheelswill clear my BBK. And I'm not in the market for a drop. At least not for a while.

I've seen some pictures of Gs with 20s on stock height and I'm not a fan. The wheel gap is a little too much for that big of a rim, makes the car look weird. But that's just my opinion.
On a 10.5, 255 would be stretched and 275 would be slightly stretched.

Quick question.. Friend of mine just picked up Vossen CVT's 19x10 +42 front and +20 rear on an awd sedan. Car will be dropped on swift springs, ideally what size tires should he run? I'm telling him 285/30/19 all around but he's worried about rubbing

A 10" +20 on a sedan will poke out from the fender almost an inch, offset should be like the front wheel, the +42 is perfect.

Thanks newt, appreciate it. He already bought the wheels and doesn't want to go through the trouble of replacing the rears and can live with it poking out an inch. As far as tire sizes though, 285/30 or 275/30 would you recommend?

Probably should run a stretched setup since they'll be outside the fender. I don't normally recommend stretched mounts but in this case it's probably best. Something like a 255/35 front & back. He could always get (2) 255s. mount them on the back wheels and see how it tucks, if you have any room to spare then go up to 265s or more in back then mount those 255s in front.(but I doubt any room will be available).

AG M540 wheels

I have a 2008 G37s coupe with stance coils....
I'm looking to get a squarred set up
So far I'm looking at
20x10 +25 if that works.......
Tires no clue??!?!?!?

I don't mind getting a fender roll or shaving the metal bracket

I have staggerd right now but kinda like the idea of if I get a squarred set up
That I can rotate all around?

You'd probably have to run a slightly stretched 265/35/20 or 265/30/20 but that would net the same fit as Lt8che coupe, his pics are no longer showing up in this thread. I'll see if he can send more.
