I'm still relatively new when it comes to most of this, and I have a hard time understanding the effect of the change in scrub radius. Anyway, the wheels are:

The wheels are 18x8 et38, and the car is fully stock at the moment.

I know it's not a huge difference from stock. However, like I said, I'm new to this and just want to double-check it won't change the car too much, if at all.

Thanks in advance.
No issues there.

I have a 2014 Q60/G37 coupe AWD, I will be lowering it on Swift springs.

Looking to do a staggered setup on it (keeping tire diameters the same) would these wheels/tread widths be OK on my coupe?:

Front 19x8.5 +30 offset 245 wide tire
Rear 19x9.5 +40 offset 275 wide tire

I'm hoping to keep a flush look, I don't like wheel poke.

I know, it's a little dirty, but I put these wheels on this weekend and it is currently raining here so I'll be doing a full wash/polish/wax this upcoming weekend.

I had a 2007 G35x on 20x10 +38 with 255/35/20 all around and was on swift springs. Was pretty much a perfect fit. I had to shave the face of my calipers to make the wheel fit, but this was because of the design of the wheel faces.

19x10 +20 will they fit

I found a set of Weds Cerberus 2 19x9.5 +20 front, and 19x10 +20 rear. I want to fit these on a 2009 G37x sedan. Can I make it fit with -2 camber and reasonable tires (for example 255/40 or maybe 245/40)?

The car car will be dropped on Feal 441 coilovers with Spc camber kit front and back. About to pull the trigger one these wheels tonight hopefully if I get feedback that makes sense. I really don’t want to pull or roll fenders don’t mind a little poke.

Appreciate the help.

No problems there, just be sure it's a 245/40 & 275/35 tire set. It won't be a super flush fit, but much better than stock in that regard.

Going to have a lot of poke on a Sedan, Coupe you could pull it off w/ stretch & camber. My 9.5 +38 Weds are just a bit outside the fender so a 10 +20 would be almost an inch further out than mine. Here's a couple pics of mine running 245s all around.

Not 100% sure of the fit at the fender w/ the Q, it seems that they are running a bit more positive offsets on their OEM wheels though, like a 8.5 +50. So there may be more poke w/ the Q setup.

You bought Sweltman's wheels? Was a great deal on those, the tires alone would have been worth that much.

Yes, I did, I couldn't pass them up. He's only a few miles from me so it was an quick and easy pick up, making it an even better deal! Real nice guy too, chatted with him for a little while.

Yeah, I contacted him that day too, but unfortunately a 9" wheel was too narrow for my purposes. Glad that he was able to sell so quickly and you seem to enjoy them. It looks good! Needs a bit more sidewall when you're done with those though. :P

My brother has a set of Jongbloed 308 Aero wheels that are 18x10.5 but not sure on offset. From what I can measure, my guess is it in the range of 55-60 mm offset. Anyone know if these will contact anything if I tires to run a square setup on this? I have a sedan.

I believe I’ve read somewhere that anything above ET 50 on a 10.5 in the front will contact the arm but I can’t find where I read that to verify. I feel that the rear should fit.

Thanks
Latez
