Discount tire sells Konigs, their Flow formed lineup isn't a bad choice for a lower priced wheel, they are lightweight & stronger than a regular cell cast wheel, and they've been around a long time. Here's that lineup and for a good sedan fit an 18" wheel w/ a 8.5 to 9" width and an offset in the +35 range would fit well on 245/45/18 tires.
Flow Formed Wheels - Konig Wheels
Of those the following would fit well on those 245s. They also have some 19s if you plan to lower your G in the future.
Ultraform in 18x9 +38
Rennform in 18x9 +40
Milligram 18x8.5 +35
Integram 18x9 +35

The pilot super sport--pss--is a super sticky high performance summer tire. It has ridiculous dry weather traction and is magnificent in the rain. The downside is your lucky to get 15,000 miles out of a set, and they're useless if the temperature is below freezing.

My bad! The tires are Bridgestone Turanza Serenity +. Great all weather tire here in the NW where it rains a lot. I believe these were a Costco only Bridgestone. Superb lack of road noise too.
What's nuts about these tires is this '08 G35x sedan has only had 2 sets of tires since new. The factory Yokohoma's went at less than 40k. This set of Bridgestone's were purchased so long ago I can't remember when. I'm thinking about 2011. And there's still a ridiculous amount of tread left on them. I should have kept my mouth shut. Now I've probably jinxed 'em!
