On my 2012 S Coupe, will a 20x9F +35 and 20x10R +40 setup work or not? A wheel I've always liked is finally available in silver but this is the only offset I see available.

Those will work but you'll need spacers to bring them closer to flush and clear the big front calipers, probably 10-15 mm spacers, especially if you want to run wider tires in back like 275s or 285s.

So I would need spacers on all four corners?

It depends, if the wheel backspacing and spoke design is adequate to clear the big brakes you won't "need" spacers. You'd probably want them though, even if they clear the brakes without them the wheels will be sunken in quite a bit on a coupe. Those offsets would be real flush on a sedan.

Yes, that will work fine. Fronts will be out close to the fenders since you won't be dropped but will be OK.

Will it stick out in front or be inside the fender really close?

The 245 tires will be slightly stretched on the 9.5" rims so they'll tuck into the fender under compression but may be right at the fender edge at stock (non-compressed) height.

Ok, how about, for my '12 S Coupe, a 20x10 setup with +25 offset? (Also available in +45 offset). If I go staggered setup, the 20x9 wheel is available in +22,32,42 offsets.

How would those work for me? Thanks for the help!

245mm ties shouldnt stretch on 9.5" wheel. 245m to inches is 9.65 inchs. should fit perfect.

245/40/19s are recommended for 8 to 9.5" rims so it's still a standard mount on the verge of being stretched

Staggered is a bit easier to pull off, you could go 9" +32 in front on 245/35/20
and the 10" +25 in back on 275/30/20s. The front 10" +25 is pretty aggressive, it's been done but may have issues w/ clearance.

Hopefully you've got a drop or are planning on it, will look a bit off at standard height.

Hey guys, I have a 2010 G37 sport sedan,
20X9 +32mm with 245/35ZR20 fronts and 20X10 +35mm with 275/30ZR20 rears with the car lowered on an Eibach pro kit. Will this setup be nice and flush on my 2010 sport sedan? Any rubbing issues?
