Rohana Rc7 on G sedan without a drop?

I'm looking to get 20x10 in the front and 20x11 rear

I will be getting coilovers so it shouldn't be a problem to get the rims and tires first right? I can always adjust the height accordingly? Trying to go with 245 front and 295 rear

Any suggestion?? Please help...I've tried doing a lot of research but it's not helping?? Good idea to go with this size? Please help

RC7s are my favorite Rohannas, as far as "is there a better looking wheel", that's very subjective. But if you're wanting an aggressive, deep concave 7 spoke, that would be my choice too. You can always get the wheels first as long as the offsets & tire sizes are correct. You'll need a real conservative offset in back to run a 295, something like a +50 to +55, and running a 245 on a 10" width isn't great, a 255 would be better up there.

Thanks Blnewt!!!!

I really don't want a stretch look and I hate it...I rather have bigger fatter tires instead to compliment the fat rims...anyway..if I run 255 n the front and 295 in the back, do u think it would rub on the fenders...I have no clue what offsets to run...so I'm not looking forward to slam the car either but I'll drop it as low as possible just to eliminate the fender/tire gap..

What offsets would u recommend in the front and rear for the following size

F 20×10 with 255-35-20
R 20×11 with 295-30-20

I'll drop the car in future on coilovers but I'd hate to drop it on stock rims. ..

I have seen u on this site helping a lot of people and really appreciate you taking time out for me as well..

Plus: Would I need to cut/roll the fenders? I rather not do this either

20s without a drop looks ridic tbh
Best case would be to do both at the same time...only need one alignment after you're happy with the ride height.
If you're set on 7 spoke, there are tons of used sets of Volk GT-7s floating around. If not, check out Enkei PF07...not 20s but looks good in 19s too.

You're right. ..I don't wanna ride around in a lifted G either hahahhaa but wish I was super rich to get everything installed at the same time..

I've made up my mind on Rohana Rc7s..something about them looks so sexy..I was looking into Vossen VVS-CV3 but then I'll have to upgrade my brakes or else it will be a over kill LOL

What offsets do you guys recommend? I don't want the tires to stick out too much either. ..damn so confused LOL

No worries bro...I can wait...my whole idea is to run the fattest tires possible on both front and back and a little drop..need help with offsets

Also, do u think it's fine to run a 10 inch in the front..I don't even know what I'm getting myself into..don't think it will be an issue to steer....also if u guys know someone selling a 2011 front facia for a sports sedan I'm interested to buy...though I don't have a sports but currently I have a front bumper off of a 2008 g35 LOL..long story..

They only make the 20x11 in a +28 offset so that won't work. A 20x10 is available in a +45 so that will work as long as you have enough room on the inside where the steering knuckle ramps up. You could run a square 20x10 +45 and run 255/35/20 front and 285 or 295/30 in back. The rears will poke out until you drop it. Check this thread. the first couple pages have some 10.5 on 275s all around and they seem to fit, but would be too tight IMO in front. The members are Tbulsara & MylilG. https://www.myg37.com/forums/brakes-...post-here.html You could also run the 9" +32 in front w/ a 245/35/20 tire and that 10 +45 in back w/ up to a 295/30. If you have an S model you would have to confirm big caliper clearance w/ the vendor. Keep in mind the 9" wheel will probably have less concavity, so you might not like that look.

So guys after doing a lot of research "Information overload"

I have a following question

What are the fattest tires I can run on a 2011 sedan without rubbing/cutting/rolling the fenders. I hate the stretch look but I don't want to lose the concavity

so here is my set up.. Please advise what tires will fit best

Front = 20x10 with a 25 offset
Rear = 20x11 with a 28 offset

Thanks all for helping

If you had a coupe you'd be ok without fender work, but I've already said those 11" +28s won't work, but sounds like you got them anyway. Stretch is your only option at this point or real heavy camber. And going without a drop it's going to be pretty poked-out too. If you didn't purchase the wheels yet I'd strongly consider going w/ the 10" all around.

Noted!!!!

So what's the pros and cons of running a negative camber?!? And what about stretch tires...what's the widest I can go...wish there was a way to throw a 305 in the back with a 11 inch rim lol...but yeah I'm not putting a wide body on a G sedan....damnnn 10 dosent seem to have enough concavity...I'm definitely putting up pictures after the install...

I'll def drop it once I have enough money..but not right now..

Here's an old thread I found, not sure how much camber he's running, hard to tell from pics but probably in the -3.5 range. If you can get toe in spec you'll probably only shorten your tire life by 25% give or take. And looks like 255 si about as wide as you can run back there. https://www.myg37.com/forums/wheels-...f-20x11-r.html

Thanks Brad!!!

I think you have convinced me enough to not go with the 11 inch wheel.

I will be going with a square set up instead of staggered. It's a shame that RC7 wont fit

I will be buying 20x10 + 45 all around
will run 255s in the front and 295 in the back

Do you think I will require camber with this set up? and any fender work?

Thanks for your help

I ran 295s on my lowered G on 20x10 +45 and they tucked right inside the fender, at stock height they will probably poke a bit but should tuck ok when compressed.
