Volks FIt?

Hey I was looking at these rims and was wondering how they would sit on a stock height G37S and would they clear the brakes? Would they poke out alot??
Any help would be great

idk, it just seems like 2K is too much for those specific wheels. Maybe if you look around the forum you might be able to find some decent wheels with tires for around that price. Just ask, as people are willing to sell.

Judging by the offsets listed on the wheels from the pics. They would be really aggressive and you would need stretched tires and negative camber. Some people really like that look and some don't. So that's up to you on what style you prefer for your car? Good luck on your decision. I like the wheels though.

^True. Front +12 Rear +22
Your talking a lot of neg camber. From my understanding, +20 front and +35 rear is just right; meaning, no need to run camber or modify the fender lining. Anything else below those specs you will need camber kits. Specially in the front. BTW, if you dont already have a front camber kit, those suckers are spensive!

Those are very agressive for a G37.

May I ask why you're limiting yourself to 19s? IMO, 20's would look much hotter

Those are all very aggressive wheels. If you don't mind the negative camber then great, do it, and post some pics for us.

A conservative Volk wheel that will clear the fender line in 19s or 20s is: 9.5 +35 F and 10.5 +37 R is what I've got. You can run a 245 35 or 255 35 in front and a 275 30 or 285 30 in the rear with no rubbing issues. That's what I'm running with my Volks.

I personally wouldn't go below a +22 offset all around as I think it would be too aggressive for the car and too much negative camber is required.

I like those Diamond Black GT-30s too. Lips need to be refinish or polished, but unfortunately they're just too agressive for our car.
