You need offsets that are much more positive, those wheels without any spacers will be sticking way out from the fenders.

Hey guys - I am a newbie, and just joined. I have had my 2008 G37s Couple for a couple of months now and have saved up for some wheels. I am a little confused at what fitment I should get.

Sticking with 19" wheels.

With some guidance, I am looking at either 19x8.5 +32F 19x9.5 +28R, or 19x9.5 +28F 19x11 +45R. Not sure which I should get. I would like it to be flush, but i don't want to have to ever get a camber kit. Planning on some coilovers in early 2016.

Looking at the Vossen VFS1 wheels in case that makes a difference.

Any help would be much appreciated!

They have a pkg deal at element wheels, the 8.5 +32 11 +45 will work on your S coupe as long as you don't go too wide w/ the tires in back. A slightly stretched 275/35/19 should work ok.
Vossen VFS1 Gloss Silver/Brushed Face (Flow Formed) 19x8.5 19x11 Staggered Wheels
If you go with coilovers a rear camber kit would be a minimum that I'd recommend.
Also need to confirm brake clearance prior to ordering
here's templates that will help

That's a very narrow rim, are you wanting these for a narrow winter tire set?
It depends on the wheels bolt pattern, and backspacing, as a wheel that narrow may not clear the Infiniti base brake calipers.

Yeah, if they're a local deal and you can do a test fit just to be sure they clear the brakes, they should be ok for a winter set.

Those wheels are going to poke quite a bit and you'll have to run some stretch on the tires unless you plan to go big on camber. As far as clearing your BBK, that's something you'd have to confirm w/ the vendor, the design and aggressive offset should be good for clearance but
These templates can be sent to vendor to confirm, sometimes they'll work with you if they want the sale.

Making sure this will ride smooth, look nice, fit right, and hopefully clear BBKs in the future.

Enter G37 sedan w/ sport pkg. in the tirerack site, it will show you which Enkeis will clear.

18" setups

Need some help

Looking at two possible setups for 08 g37s coupe

1st Option
18x9.5 et15 265/35/18
18x10.5 et22 275/35/18
Would like to run eibach pro-kit springs.
Realize fender roll will be necessary. Worried about rolling diameter

2nd Option
18x10.5 et22 255/40/18 squared
Again eibach pro kit springs
Same concerns

Any help here would be greatly appreciated. Springs would be ideal but I am also considering Tein Basis Coilovers as well.

Thanks in advance

2nd option is much better, and w/ the stretch 255s you'll probably get inside the fender edges, if not, a bit more camber should do it. The actual wheel edges will be a bit outside the fenders though, but it sounds like that's the look you're after.
I'd go w/ the coilovers too.
