Only spec missing is the offset, and that is important to determine the exact fit at the fender. If the offset is +30 to +40 they'll fit ok, if it's less positive the wheels may poke outside the fenders, especially at stock height, if you go more positive than +40 they will be sunken in quite a bit (but this can be addressed w/ spacers). You'll also want hub adapter rings to eliminate high speed vibration and new tapered seat lug nuts.

If your sedan is RWD the Tein Basis Z coilovers are a good choice and at about $500 shipped they are a lot of bang for the buck, if you want adjustable dampers the Tein Flex Z coilovers can be had for about $300 more. You may need camber kits depending how low you drop, and for a full F&R kit it's about $550, just the rear kit (which is needed more often) is about $200.

42 offset is pretty conservative, but they will fit without issue. I'd drop it first then decide what spacer thickness you'd want or just run them as is.

Not sure what the bore is on the Niche wheels, 73.1mm is pretty common but you'd have to confirm w/ Niche or measure them, the Infiniti hub bore is 66.1mm. I'd go w/ aluminum adapter rings, the plastic ones don't hold up well. Ebay has them for about $15.

Teins won't be as firm as the Taiwan-sourced coilovers, should be closer to OEM ride.
Going from stock 17s to 20s will be quite dramatic in rougher ride quality, and top that off with coilover suspension will compound that further, so be prepared for much more NVH.

35 offset is better, wheels won't be sunken in as much.

As far as 18s or 19s, they will give a softer ride vs. 20s, and if you're not in a hurry to lower your G they will look better as 20s tend to make the fender gap appear even larger at stock height. Tires for 19s can be quite a bit more $$ than 18s.

Those look like OEM Infiniti coupe wheels, if they are the staggered setup it should be a 19x8.5 +43 (front) 19x 9 +45 rear. Only exception is the ones for the convertible and these should be the same front wheels but a 19x9 +30 in back.

They will fit nice & flush, but I'd only go with them if you're lowered or plan on lowering. 20s exaggerate the already large fender gap at stock height. FWIW Natalie used to have one sweet black G sedan decked out in super flush Vossens, so she knows her stuff. And they are the lighter & stronger version of the Vossen line so an even better deal.
