Will there be any issues if I go to 245/35 & 275/30? On either michelin pilot sports or PSS?

You'll be about 4% shorter vs your current 40/45 series set, not something I'd recommend, but AFAIK it's been done without issue w/ the Z guys. 3% seems to be the line that when crossed, could be a problem, but

Okay Guys, need help here.

2008 G37s coupe

I want to get a 295/30r19 in the rear. Currently on stock sport suspension. So about 26.5" off the ground

Is this possible? From my figuring, I think a 19x11 wheel with a +35 offset should be safe? Already know I can fit a 265/35r19 up front on a 9.5" wheel, which is the plan for up front.

I do not want to pull my fenders, or run a bunch of negative camber, I'm within factory specs currently and I like that. I'm having a very hard time finding a 19x11 that isn't +25 or lower. I like an aggressive meaty tire but I also like fitment to be flush without rubbing. Will trim the bumper bracket if I have too. But that's about all I'm willing to sacrifice.

My black G in the picture.




Do I have any options or not?

FWIW your G as-is looks really nice w/ a nice wheel choice for that black G.

That said, Forgestar can get that 19x11, here's just one variety and the guys (Jason & Josh) can get any of the Forgestars and custom colors too!

A 19x11 +35 on a 285/35 will get you roughly the same fit as this in back
(a 10.5 +25 on a 275)

Thank you! I liked the setup too, but unfortunately I thought I could drift and went up and over a curb. That resulted in 4 bent wheels haha. Also it was a square setup and I've been meaning to go for a staggered setup for awhile now.

No go on a 295 though? seems like overkill to even put a 285 on an 11 to me.


Also thanks for the info on the Forgestar wheels! Found a few I like, any other companies that do custom offsets like that?

Idk I threw some 20x10.5 +25 with 285/35 on and they rubbed.

SO I was thinking the +35 19x11 should fit, I only needed like 5mm more of clearance and I don't think I would have rubbed at all. Idk, you guys are the experts here, so that's why I'm asking here. I just don't wanna order wheels and tires and be disappointed.

Noob to the wheel game....I acquired some new rims (Enkei RS05RR) with the following specs:

18×9.5 + 22
18×10.5 +35

I drive a sport sedan on coils.

Whats is the nicest/beefiest setup i could run in front/rear?

I have 275/40/18s for the rear on hand but I'm thinking they are too big?

Should I go 265 in the rear?

All suggestions welcome thanks!
