At first glance, yeah. And the stretch on those tires looks really awkward, IMO. But dropped and cambered in... it could look completely different.

Wheels are beautiful, if you can make them work.

Nice trunk emblem. And side-markers. Interesting.

Nope. The tires, however, do affect if and how much wheel arch damage will occur.

Lol ^^^

Maybe you can find someone on the GTR site that's wanting to trade two front for two back wheels. Four fronts will look awesome on your G, just like our resident GTR star "R1cky".

Otherwise that 10.5 +25 is going to need heavy camber at the minimum, and some fender pulling if you want a flush fit without having to run something like a 255 width out back.

Yeah, might be the best plan, but echo Rochester, you've got a nice looking G all around. Might even find a coupe owner on the site nearby wanting to make a trade for something that would fit your sedan a bit better, much easier to make those rear GTRs fit on a coupe, or especially a G convertible

Dig the sidemarkers!

As nice as those wheels are, rear wheel fitment looks goofy on sedan. All fronts or no-go, IMO

The CBA GTR wheels look great on the sedan, especially with a square front setup. Lose the stretch and I think it would look a whole lot better.

The tires that are mounted on there are too narrow for the rim... so whoever mounted them stretched it.

The GTR wheels are just too big for the sedan. The only way you'll fit those rears is lots of lowering and cambering + stretch. Sell it and get all fronts or just some other wheels.

iCrap is right. The only way to make those rears look right is with a lot of work and compromise. And based on the OP's comments, doesn't seem worth the effort. A square set of GTR fronts is the way to go. Or other rims entirely.
