Which offset should I run?

The wheel size are 19x8.5 F and 19x9.5 R and this are the offset options:

19x8.5F 35offset and 19x9.5R 40 offset

OR

19x8.5F 15 offset and 19x9.5 15offset


which combo will work best for my g37S? going to run 245/40/19 and 275/35/19 , lowered on eibachs.

Thanks!

the first set would be better, 15 will probably stick out, a little to aggressive IMO.
No offense but both setups suck ={ 9.5 on the rear? thats almost stock i would go at least 10-10.5

This. If you have to choose between those two options, OP, I'd go with the first set-up and maybe run some spacers.

+1. You definitely want a staggered setup, and the 15's, there's just no way you can pull that with an eibach drop in the front.

To be safe go option 1, and then have the freedom to space them more if you'd like from there.

Thanks for all replies I talked to the wheel manufacturer and he said he installed 19x8.5 35 off set for the front and 19x9.5 15 offset on the rear on one of the employees g37, what do you guys think about that combo?

I say 20 all around with 9 inch front, 10.5 rear, 20 in front and 25 rear, but imo opinion id rather get a smaller offset and use spacers to push it out if needed. so maybe ur first setup

I would like to see your 19x8.5 35 off set for the front and 19x9.5 15 for the back setup. I might copy you if it looks good.

You can run the more aggressive offsets too with no problems. I say go aggressive! But if thats not your thing, go conservative and like others said...you can always space it out.
