Anybody have any photos of a +22 offset on 9.5/10.5" rim combo?

As the title states. I'm trying to gauge how flush a mid 30 offset is and how far the +22 offset sticks out. Would help me greatly in my decision process!

Any close, angled shots of the mid 30 offsets would work great too. I've done a search with limited results... I do have a fender roller so rolling and pulling would not be an issue!

The rear fenders of a G37 are double welded. It will be hard to pull it smoothly. If you are going to go that route, get one of those tools that reads the surface tempratures.

i did the pull professionally by this shop that did a lot of fender pulling on 350zs and G35s and they still had a hard time doing it on our cars just because they are double welded. I was running +15 on a 10 in the rear.
make sure u know what you are doing on the pull.

Hey gan78, I actually called Corner 3 Garage a few months ago. Lady told me that they are not doing fender pulling anymore. I think that you might have been the last car they did, lol

Cool, thanks for the pic! I already have wheels, but I might be moving from my G35 to a G37 and would hate to give the wheels up. Looking at a +30, +22 would be pretty crazy for a DD.

Welcome to the forum. So you are coming over the dark side.....mmuuaahhaaaa....hurry up and get over here.

Let me save you some time. The +22 will constantly rub everything front and rear. I tired it.....no amount of rolling or rubbing will save you. The rear really cannot be "rolled" becuase its already rolled and welded from the facotry, and has no meaty ledge to bend back. There was a G37 at Sema last year with +22's all around, and the tire was reseting on the inner fender.

I would love to keep the Progessiv ME's, but if they're not going to work, might as well sell them while they're still mint. If I did get a G37 on lease, I'd just do springs and use spacers to get that flush, tight look I'm looking for without bothering with new wheels, especially since the stockers can accommodate 245/275 combos. Could get them powdercoated for $300 while I swap out to bigger tires.

So yes and no. Still not 100% yet on a G37, but I'm committed to demodding and trading in the G35. New 2009 A4 or the A5 are on the list as options too. Basically I had a chance to really check out the GTR 2 weeks ago. After that I said, no more on the G. Nothing I could do would bring it close to the level of the GTR and it'd still cost more! So I'm either going to lease a G37 or something similar for 2 years and get in line for a 2010/11 model.

This is from 2 weeks ago, loved every moment of it!



Also, I'll shoot you an e-mail this weekend or next week. If you remember that long block I mentioned to you, picking it up this weekend. Now I have no need for it, so want to discuss some options with you.

G37 is a likely option though, all depends on what the residuals and market is like in 2 months when I'm done demodding and ready to trade in.
