I'm getting rid of pokey pokey soon. Time to make my car fun to drive instead of avoiding potholes all day.

Seriously. It's better to run wider tires. I have no traction from 1st throughout 4th gear lol. No point of having all power if I can't put it to the ground

Fellas, I am looking at getting some Five ADs that are 20x10.5 with 22 offset. I have been told that they will stick out 3-4 inches in the rear...Is that a overstatement? I don't mind a .5 or 1" stick out but 3-4 is a little much for me. Im not looking at putting camber on the wheels, just dropping the front 1 or 1.5". The tires are 245/35, little bit of stretch but not too aggressive. Here is the link for the wheels and tires.

FS: FS: 5x114.3 Five:AD S5:F 20x10.5 +22 Gunmetal w/ tires - G35Driver

will this fit a 08G37S? Need some opinions.

Thanks

That's an over statement. I'm running a 20x10.5 +25 and I barely poke out.
So this is just a bit more. And I'm also running a 245 stretched on there. When you say it's a mild stretch, it's not lol it's a pretty good stretch. A mild stretch is a 255 or a 265 imo

You sure that's not a 255? That looks super stretched for a 275

All depends on tire. I have had a 275/30 Yokohama S.drive on my +25 10.5 in rear and that **** was square as hell, so it rubbed like crazy. I then switched to a 255 falken, and it was too stretched, so I decided to switch to Hankooks, moderate stretch that clears and won't rub. IMO, falkens have a ugly sidewall.
All I have to say is this; all tires differ by brand. Falkens tend to have a crazy amount of stretch, while the hankooks have a moderate stretch, and the yoko's being crazy square.
