New from snowy Quebec

Hi every one...

Ok, first I am french so don't be too hard on my spelling...

First some history...

I am 56, and had a couple of cars, a lot of mustang (from 1978 to 2006 (9), barrcuda, MG, van, and in the end 2 lexus : 1 ls400 and my last one a gs400) I was going to change car for a newer GS 350, until my wife says that we didn't need a four door anymore, (i also own a Santa Fe), so I started looking for a sportier model, and felt in love with a G37S coupe 2008 blue slate and bought it...

I have been reading here and elsewhere, for the last month about rims and can't find the answer I am looking for, so maybe there is no right answer... I also ask to some sponsers,vendor, maker and still wait for their answers... So that's why I am gonna ask to you all...

When i bought the car there was 4 brand new summer tires on the original wheels. Living in a snowy country and also required by the provincial law, I had to buy, install winter tires on the car. So I did buy 4 brand new Blizzak installed on the original 19 inches wheels....

Now the question...
I would like to buy some great looking 19 inches rims for summer, first because I already own 4 brand new Potenza summer tires, second, the roads are not that great here and 20 inches gonna make the ride horrible...

I was looking into concave like Vossen cv2 and Vertini magic, but from different online vendor, i find opposite answers about fitment

So, Is it possible to install some 19 inches staggered (Vossen or Vertini) concave wheels on my G37S 2008 coupe with big brake without any spacer ????

Thank in advance

First welcome, You can get some really nice 19's( I went this route-Boston roads stink also) As far as fitment on the S model. There are tons of guys that run staggered fitment with out spacers, It just takes a lot of searching on what offset you want to run. I still do not understand the offset thingy, I just run 20mm spacers on mine. But having a x coupe it was a little different for me. :/
