Ha ha great response bud,
I don't do conservative so option number one is out the window....
Would I have any issues with option 3, car isn't lowered was going to get wheels sorted then have a look at lowering... Thanks.

What wheels are you looking at?
If you were to run that wide of a tire, you would definitely need some neg camber along with a fender pull to be safe...trimming the bracket is a given.
What is your plan for lowering...springs or coils? If you just want springs, I would do those first and see where it puts you since you won't have much adjustability... and then mess with the wheels and camber.

Yeah I know there cheap, but there in my budget at the minute, I bought the car back in March from Japan and its cost me an arm and a leg mate, my first objective is to get the car sounding right, so I'm just after some cheap wheels to get it sitting right for now...
All advice is welcome though.....

It's one thing to be thrifty, and another to be cheap. When it comes to wheels and tires, that is not the place to cheap out as it's your biggest safety system.
If it were me, I would focus on the sound or suspension first before getting cheap parts like those...you'll be wayyyyyy better off.

Definitely doable but will need some work getting the right camber, especially if you're lowered
A roll/pull will be needed along with the proper tire sizes...those SP3s are tempting though.

got a question on fitment. I have a stock g37 coupe but have been considering getting rims. I want to do a square setup. i have been looking at 19x10 +40 or 20x10.5 +45 offset. I plan on getting coilovers and dropping it but i also dont plan on slamming it. I want to drop it just enough to close the gap and want to avoid much camber so i dont go through tires every year. I also want to run a 245 tire. Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hey I'm buying new all season tires for these wheels and I do plan on putting Swift springs on my 2010 g37xs sedan eventually (probably after winter) so idk if that has anything to do with it.
What are the numbers I'm lookin for when purchasing tires? I was thinking about looking at Craigslist first but I have no idea what to search for!

May be able to sell the tires since they are newer & in good shape.
