Question Sedan wheel fitment question

I have access to a set of wheels to go on a 2012 G sedan that are 19x8 +40 all around and will clear the brakes. These wheels are not my first, or even second choice, but they're OK. But most importantly, they are just plain dirt cheap (much cheaper than a set of tires). How flush will the +40 be on the sedan. I can learn to love them if they will fit well. Help me out sedan guys. Anybody have fitment like this with photos?

Actually if someone could tell me the offset for the 2012 18" sedan sport wheels that's the information I really need to figure this out. Thanks.

Here are some pics of my wheels. The fronts are 19x8.5 35mm offset, rears are 19x9.5 40mm offset. You can kinda get an idea of how far 8" 40mm is gonna be tucked.

Thanks. Both your front and rears are wider than the wheels I'm looking at, so it's hard to gauge. Plus I think that I've found the offset (+45) number of the OEM which lets me pug everything into the wheel calculator. I appreciate your response.

BTW, get a drop ASAP.

If not lowered they would fit like the G37 coupe 19"s. other than that they would be tucked and the stock offsets are 18x7.5 +45 and 18x8 +50.

I had someone provide me the 2012 owners manual and they are listed at +45 front, +50 rear. Page 9-9.

Black Betty is your sedan lowered at all? If it is, you will definitely need spacers for a decent fitment. If not, they will fit better than your OEM wheels. Obviously it won't be anything close to flush but should be okay fitment for daily driving w/o being sunken like OEM wheels. If they're dirt cheap, why not give them a shot?

Sport sedan wheels, 18x7.5 +45 front, 18x8.5 +50 rear.
Here's, 20x8 +40, not dropped. Not the best pics, but hopefully will help. G35Driver - View Single Post - 07 Sedan Pics with Aftermarket Wheels and Tires

BB, i'm running 18x8, +40mm for my snow wheels. Fitment on a '12 sedan is quite close, ~3-4mm for brake clearance. I'd say they look quite stock and don't stick out too little/too much.

Take a look at post

https://www.myg37.com/forums/3332523-post5.html for some pics.

Those were done with the phone camera few weeks ago. If you want a straight shot back or forward framing the fender, let me know.
