Limited Edition

I ordered my wheels from Danny@limited. I found a lower price and he matched it without issue. I think I received my wheels in about 3-4 days which was awesome!

This is not a bash, but I think they need to really do some research on fitment. I aksed multiple times about making sure the offset would be flush with the fenders. When I got the wheels, I thought they looked a little off because the lip on the fronts was so small, but I just figured that was because the S's BBK on the front. After install, it looks like I am going to need at least a 10mm spacer on both front and back (at a cost of about another $100-$150)

I have only bought one other set of wheels in my life so I trusted his opinion being how they sell these everyday.

Again, the transaction was great and the wheels are beautiful, but you guys really need to learn your offsets.

I think you swapped the offsets... It was probably Front 19x9 +35 and Rear 19x10 +37. This is a very popular and safe setup for the G37. It is what most of the guys running Volk wheels are using and we know this because Volk let's you know the offsets... others companies don't publish their offsets.

That's what i usually recommend on offsets for the g37 coupe. Yes you can go a little more aggressive but there's a good chance you'll rub if you go lower offsets. Because of tire manufacturers have different size contact patch and sidewall design, two differnt brands 275/35 19's will fit slightly different. For example, TOYO T1-R'S and Falken's 452's are more rounded shape sidewalls compared to YOKOHAMA S drives. Nitto NT-05'S are very square

Yeah, those offsets aren't too bad, but they are a bit high though. Volks usually come in 9.5 and 10.5 also, so you have to add those that extra 1/2 inch which can make a difference.

^^^ yeah it's that extra half an inch that is bugging me. The rears look great (almost flush with at least a 3 inch lip) It's the fronts that are tucked in and have about <1 in. lip

Like Lou has stated, those are safe offsets for you not to rub at all with any tires you run with.
Those are usually the right offset for the fronts and rears. Its usually the rears that people are not happy with and rub when they go too low on the offsets and dont want to stretch their tires and camber.
