Question Tire size help for g37xs awd

I have G37xS. Since its AWD I can't have run a offset. Could I run 245/40/19 (9)in the front and 275/35/19 (10.5) in the Rear? without destroying anything.

Please let me know don't wanna blow up my tranny cause of the awd lmao thanks

Here's the list of tire combos that will work w/ your AWD in most of the common sizes~
FWIW Here's the best tire combos I'd recommend for 18s/19s/20s, then pick proper wheel widths/offsets to get them to fit~
18s
235/45 & 265/40 (0.07%)
245/45 & 275/40 -0.07%
255/45 & 285/40 -0.22%

19s
225/45 & 255/40 0.06%
235/40 & 265/35 -0.37%
235/40 & 275/35 0.67%
245/40 & 275/35 -0.52%
245/40 & 285/35 0.51%

20s
235/35 & 275/30 0.07%
245/35 & 285/30 -0.07%

This calculator should be used when trying new setups~

Keep in mind the variances with a minus sign have smaller rear diameters, this isn't as good since the rears wear faster, this will cause the variance to increase over time. Not a big deal when you're starting at zero or close, but if you're already almost at 1% variance this needs to be considered. None of the above combos should have enough rear wear to be a issue but

What about the 17” Stock rims for the AWD sedan? How wide could I go? And could I also do a staggered 245 & 285 set up? Or is 285 too wide and will I have rubbing issues?

Visit Tire Rack and pick some tires you might want. They list recommended wheels sizes for each tire size. I suspect your 17x7.5 won't accept wider than a 245.
