Just call them and tell them what you want, I am sure they can figure it out!

Those wheels are sick BTW!

ok i just got a pm from the contact. he said for the g37, it is going to be a mid offset, and the lip is not going to be as big as the 370z. he says this may be the size im lookin for: 20x9+20x10. i wonder why the lip will be smaller?

Vossen wheels are 10.5 and most have reported no rubbing. I'm sure you'll be just fine. Wheels are looking good as well!

it kinda will rub with 275/30 on 10.5 but nothing too bad, you'll live. only on deep bumps you will.

You can definitely go with 10.5 in the rear.

And I think +35 in the front is a little conservative. What kind of tires are you getting? With 20x10 +30 in the rear and Yokohamas, you will rub on Eibachs. But after shaving off the linning in the wheel well, you'll be fine. That's what I did.

Are they custom offset?

waddup D! that's exactly what i thought. i actually wanted to look more aggressive. i guess i failed to mention that to ricky at vip status. ill talk to him again and see what he can do. still not sure what kind of tires im getting...ill have to do more research on that, but any suggestions would be great.

BTW...im still in the process of finding time off from work so that i can send my headlights back up to you. hope you didnt forget yo. haha

Haha for sure.

I like the Yokohama S-drives I have right now. But you'd have to shave the tire well lining to avoid rubbing on 20x10 in the rear. In the front, it'll be fine though.

Tell them to go more aggressive in the front before it's in production!
