Yes, your math & logic is "almost" correct, it will net nearly the same "flushness" just a slightly taller mount w/ the tire (since it's "pinched a 1/2"), but not enough to notice. You'll be a 1/2" narrower w/ the rim (which is 12mm or 6mm on each wheel side) and 5mm (not .5") further out in offset so a net of 1mm further in, so basically equal

I'd go ahead and get the wheels mounted on the car and go from there. Your 10.5 +45s w/ 285s will be almost like my 10" +45 on 295s, I wouldn't want it any flusher, as far as the fronts, the inner front fender isn't rolled in front like it is in the rear and if you're dropped to zero gap you'll hit that inner fender often if you're close to flush. IMO the 9 +35 should be just about right w/ the 245s to allow a non-rubbing spec camber setup. It should look very good too
Waiting will allow you to drive it for awhile and see exactly how much room you have, you might just come out Aces from the start! Plus adding spacers later is a simple DIY.

Thanks man.

Thanks for the reply! I'll probably go ahead and do that and decide if I need anything additional. I just like meaty fitment (I definitely check out the fat tire thread!)

For kicks, here was my previous car. I had a little too much poke/camber in the rear in this picture, but you get the point

2013 Focus ST with just about everything lol. Tuned, intercooler, exhaust, coilovers, wheels, etc. Sold it to get my S Sedan, no regrets

i just called the vendor and they seems to have no clue if it will clear the brakes or not..... they are telling me that the tire shops might know....

ive seen a post in g35 forum. a guy bought the same spec

20x9 5-114.3 +15 73.1 bore
20x10.5 5-114.3 +20 73.1 bore

and said that it clear the brembo brakes.

does this mean it will clear on mine too???

blnewt, I appreciate all your help but I've decided to go with my original plan of keeping the sidewall sizes the same. The reason being is I do not like the look of a taller tire in the front (even if technically they are the same height). Yes, the front diameter will be down .8 inches in the front but I'm of a certain breed who likes a little rake.

Here are my sizes, tell me what you think.

19x9 +35 245/35/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sports
19x10 +42 275/35/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sports

I was also debating long and hard about what tire to go with as my leading front runner was the continental dw's. I heard they were great but why not go with the best when starting off with this g?

If you want a smaller diameter in front that's not a problem as long as you don't have AWD, and I like the raked look too.
Can't go wrong w/ the PSS, they have pretty good tread wear for their grip too. Sizes should be fine.

Brembos are big but the Akebonos are bigger. That template I linked should be sent to whoever you'll be buying the wheels from, if they want the sale they should be able to verify clearance, or let you return them for free return shipping if they don't.

I've been researching and digging up pictures trying to look for new wheels/tires and I wanted some advice regarding fitment for some forgestar f14s I'm looking to order in the near future. This is for an 08 rwd Coupe, also.

My goal is to get (in order of importance):
--super deep concave look all around (square set up)!
-- I like the tire to be flush with the lip of the wheel (incase accidents with potholes happen I dont want to be super prone to road rash on the lips).
--I'd like to be able to run decently wide tires without rubbing fenders or stretched tire look, and try to get close to flush (i'd rather have the wheels tucked in 5-10mm rather than poke out and/or have stretched tires to fit under the fender).
--Ultimately I'd like to go as aggresive as possible for a daily driver in the front and match the back to it so the set up is square and can be rotated.

I was thinking of getting 19x10, but am completely clueless how to gauge the offset for the wheels and pair with tires. I'd like to fit atleast 255/35/19s around all 4. Does this sound about right for 10" wheel, to avoid stretching?

What kind of wheel offset would you suggest with the above goals in mind?? I'm guessing offset will impact the concavity a lot too, not just how far out the wheel pokes right?... I was thinking maybe +20 or +15 if possible.... I think the max offered for f14s with super deep concave is +31 fwiw, and least is like -5.

Thanks in advanced, haven't seen too many posts for 10" wheel width or square set ups

Ok G37Some, You can do your own legwork by using the calculator and go from your stock wheels/tires and put various combos in the calculator and see how they fit. Here's a good calculator
https://www.myg37.com/forums/tire_rim_calculator.php
and use this little spacer tutorial to see how to measure for your desired "flushness", you then take the amount of spacer you'd need and just use that figure for the amount in the "outer position" section on the calculator. For example, using that spacer video you determine you want your tires to be 25mm further out from current. You then enter your current wheel, tire & offset on line one, then you put the new setup in line two, and work the numbers until you get a 10" wheel & tire combo that gets you that 25mm extension.

Just a ballpark, if you're running OEM 18" coupe Non-Sport wheels they should be 18x8 +43 and 225/50/18
For a 10" that will extend out 25mm here's what you'd need
a 10" +35 and a 255/40/19 tire for a 27mm extension.
That's probably pretty close to what you'd need but best if you do some measurements and calculations to bring it all home. If you have the Sport package w/ the big brakes you'll have to verify brake clearance.

found the info I was looking for, nevermind.

Sup guys! Rim question here for my sedan. I have a 2013 G37s sedan with akebono BBK. with staggered 18's. Don't plan on lowering my car right now, but will in the future. Want to get some 19's or 20's either deep concave or with a lip. What's the size and offset I can get and not rub and no need to camber the rear to make them fit. Want to go wide tires.

Clearing the brakes mostly depends on the wheel design, not so much the offset.
Generally the widest tire I've seen here for a sedan front is 255 and for rear the 285. I am personally throwing on 245's 275's on tomorrow so we shall see.

Deep concave or a rim w/ lip covers a lot of wheels. I'd focus on a couple wheels you really like and go from there. I'd get a budget in mind for the wheels & tires and find a few that you like in that budget. If you want a staggered setup keep in mind the amount of concavity will be different front to back.
My sedan I run 245/35/20s in front on 8.5" +40 and 295/30/20s on 10" +45 rims. Mine are concave but like I said the concavity is deeper in back, luckily the fronts have decent concavity so the change front to back isn't too noticeable. My rears are flush but the fronts have about 10mm room, I like the fronts in a bit since the front fenders aren't rolled like the rear so this allows enough clearance under compression. I'm lowered to zero gap on coils FWIW.
