Offset Gurus please chime in

I will be placing an order for my new set of wheels in the next couple of weeks (hopefully). What are you thoughts on the following wheels specs that were given to me?

20X9.5 +35R 5-114.3
20X10.5 +37O 5-114.3

Will they sit flush?

Thanks for your wise advice

that's a good spec... alot of GT30's have those offsets for the G37.



JKashat has or had gt30's with those offsets.... 305 in the rear too

Should sit pretty flush with those offsets. Maybe just a couple mm off.

those will be safe offsets that will make u sit flush with the fenders with no rub (assuming 245/35 front and 275/30 rear). you can go more aggressive if ud like but will have to run stretched tires and negative camber

i think +25 front and +30 in the rear would sit nice, maybe +35 in the rear would be safe for NO RUB if your going to run like a 285

I appreciate the feedback

I'll most likely keep my current wheel set up:

255/35 F
285/30 R

I'm currently dropped on Tanabe NF210 on all 4 corners but will be switching the front to eibachs. There shouldn't be any issues right?

It all depends on how much neg camber u want to run. But with that setup, I doubt you will rub.. maybe occassionaly on large bumps and stuff.

I have the same size/offset wheels and 245/35 and 275/30 rears. Dropped on g35 h-techs and the rear did rub slightly every once in a while. I decided to trim the rear fender linings and bumper bracket and no more rubbing issues now

That's a close guess since Venaci are rebadged Work Gnosis wheels. I m going with the Mesh style with gunmetal face and polished step lip.

You'll have to cut a little on the bumper bracket otherwise 285's on the rear will rub unless you get a little more camber. Front will fit nicely.
