New Owner Needs Help With Rims

Hey, I just bought a 09 G37 Moonlight White, non navi don't see the need for it when I know my way around, other than that fuly loaded. This is my first car ever I had a handy me down but this is MY first car and I'm picking it up in the next couple days.

I am getting 20" Lexani LSS-5's (8.5 front 10 rear) with 2.5" in the front but still not sure about the dish in the rear either 4" or 5". So my question's are, should I go with 4" or 5" dish in the rear? What tire size for front and rear? And If I should lower the car?By how much? With what? Thank You

Why not go for the bigger lip if you can?

How wide are the wheels? For my 20x9 and 20x10, I have 245/35/20 and 275/30/20.

Lower on Eibachs. It's a mild drop, not too low, just enough to look good. Many members have it.

Hey Thanks, The size are 20x8.5 Front and 20x10 rear, the 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 seem to be popular and I just found out I can't get the 5" lip for some reason and I guess I'm going with 4". As for the eibachs where can I order them from?
