vossen offset??

hey guys.
After looking at many pictures, I put a set of vossen cv3 concave wheels on my 2009 g37 coupe but the rear tire is not flush with the car, it goes out about half an inch. If the rest of the g37 with same wheels look pretty even with the car, why in my g37 they look so offset??
PLEASE help me with some answers

Need more info. Also how much negative camber are you running in the back and what size tires do you have.

What goes out? The fender or the wheel?

I noticed that the rest of the cars I've seen have a smaller tire on the rear, since a have a 285 maybe i should go smaller?? Could that be the reason??

If you have the 10.5 +25 with a 285 then yeah, you're going to be sticking out.

Do you have a drop and if so what kind too because that will change how much your wheels are tucked.

yes, i have the 10.5 +25 with a 285 on the rear, should I go smaller on the tire maybe and let the rim stick out instead of the tire?

Ok then you must have a +25 offset in the rear which requires a smaller tire. Most are running a 255, 265 and then a few even with a 275 but a 285 is going to be too much. Then you are going to need to lower the car so the wheel will camber in and tuck. At stock height these wheels will stick out and there is nothing you can do about it.
