Yes, you can run 245/40/19 from and 275/35/19 rear.

Those tires will not be compatible with AWD, and the 10.5 +25 will be a very tight fit in the rear. If you want to keep the 215 and 245 widths, a better size would be 215/45/19 and 245/40/19. Those sizes are within 1% of each other which should be fine for AWD.

Would it look bad if I use 245/40 all around?

The rear will look more stretched than the front, that's all.

Do you know how a 10.5 +22 will fit in the front with a 245 tires? will it fit and not rub with natural camber?

Gonna be a real headache, probably a fender pull in addition to the stretched tires and camber.

Good wheel deals pop up pretty often, check w/ VenomGT9 for the latest. Not worth all the work to stuff those under a sedan, and running something as narrow as a 215 will really compromise your Gs performance and road holding. Just say no

Should be a good fit with a mild drop.

I am looking to get some gunmetal 19 inch Forgestar F14's, would like to be completely flush. This is for a G37 6MT sedan lowered on Swift springs.

Is +36F and +46R good for a flush fit lowered on Swift?

Also, what would be best?

19x8.5 on 235/35 +36
19x9.5 on 265/30 +46

or

19×9 on 245/35 +36
19×10 on 275/30 +46

I would like a completely square looking wheel/tire combo, no stretch and no bulge.

Posted Photoshop of what I would like it to look like.

Wondering though if I need 20's instead of 19's though to achieve this look.

Thank you!

I would go with the wider set, with those offsets you shouldn't have any issues with being too aggressive. However make sure that they clear the BBK. Also with tires you want to bump up your sidewalls to 40 front and 35 rear for 19 inch wheels.

Thanks for the reply.

I really the wheel/tire setup on this car:

New Shooz are on!! - G35Driver

But the OP doesn't know the offset. It seems like Forgestar likes +40F and +45R for a lowered sedan on 19's.

Agree w/ 93 (as usual, lol) you'll get a better ride and the diameter will be much closer to OEM. Since Forgestar allows for custom offsets you'll have no problem getting right to the fenders. Here's some pics of my G when I was running 20s. I ran 8.5 +40 front on 245/35/20 and in back 20x10+45 on 295/30/20, in back these were perfectly flush, I had more room in front since the front fender isn't flat-rolled like the back.

And here's another set of pics with 285/30/20s in back, as you can see the 295/30s are real flush (perfect IMO) and the 285s have a bit more room.

So in short, if I could get custom offsets and want a nice aggressive setup I'd run 19x9.5 Deep concave in a +40 running 245/40/19s and a 19x11 Deep concave in a +55 running 275/35/19s (Assuming there is enough inner clearance, I can check on this later if you'd like). This will give you a similar deep concave on both front & rear wheels (a much better look than a semi concave front, deep concave rear) and the tire mount will be the same front & back with both tires being a similar slight stretch mount. The 245 on a 9.5 and a 275 on a 11 are both the max recommended widths for both those tire sizes. This will be a very nice looking set & fit. BTW, Jason@GetYourWheels is running a great black Friday sale on Forgestars and is a great guy to deal with, he'll confirm brake clearance and get you taken care of. HTHs,
Brad
