Staggered setup questions

I was thinking about getting a staggered setup for my 2013 g37 sedan journey. I wanted to get 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear but I don’t know what offset will be flush. It’s currently at stock ride hide and I don’t plan on cambering it but I do plan on slightly lowering it. I don’t want to have to roll my fenders and It will not be super low. What’s a good fitment and tire size, I was thinking about 245/35/ front and 275/35 or 285/35 in the rear. I’m new to this so please give me some options. Also i believe my car is RWD

You've searched this?

8.5 +35 and 9.5+45 should get you reasonably flush without the need for additional clearancing or rubbing. To be totally flush, you won't be able to treat it like a regular car.

Don't go wild with the offsets. Try and stay close to stock if possible. 19x9+45 up front, for example, is better than using 8.5+35 up front.

A 245/35/19 is too short.

A 285/35/19 or 275/35/19 is about right.

If you use a 245/35 front and 285/35 rear, its going to look funny. Your rears will be way taller than the front.

I'd recommend 245/40/19 front and 275/35/19 rear.

I tried to research it as much as I could but I couldn’t find any specifications to my wheel size and sedan over the coupe. Thank you I think I will go with this setup.

But I have an additional question should I do 35 offset in the front or 45?

Well...the reason for my search comment is so that you could see pictures of what you're getting.

There's a 19" wheel thread with photos on this forum. I would suggest looking at peoples' cars to envision your potential future
