Yeah the brake kit is my issue. I am thinkin of going with the +22, it should be aggressive enough of a look for me without fender mods. I'll have to use the above to send to them! Thanks for all the help

No problem, the front fenders aren't flat rolled like the rear so that's an easy fix up front, and a little camber (like in the -2) should get you there. Just don't go too wide on the tires. Might consider getting just the wheels then do a test fit to see how much tire you can run.

Ok, what width wheel have you picked out, better yet, do you have a link for the wheel(s) in question?

Ok... I am seriously concerned... I have 8.5/9.5 both with a 35 offset. I have a coupe with sport. I bought 20mm spacers to throw behind the wheels so make them a 15mm offset... Will this be too aggressive? I want to run 225/35r19 and 245/35r19 tires.... Will this work with minimal work? Wheels are work t1s'

Should be able to make that work w/ some extra camber, but if they're brand new spacers I'd keep them in the box (do not mount them yet) and do a test fit of the new wheels & tires, then see the exact amount of spacing you need to get the fit you want, shouldn't be too big of a deal exchanging them for smaller ones if needed. Just be careful around those brake calipers, if you absolutely need spacers to clear them then use some stacked washers to check clearance and put some blue painters tape over your calipers so they won't get dinged up in the process.

All,

Found a set of Concept CS6 wheels on craigslist. The owner currently has them on a Lexus SC430. While I've found a lot of Infiniti/Lexus fitments to be the same the owner does not have offset information and is guessing to an extent bc they are in storage. Heres what i know:

Front 20 x 9 245/35/20 ??+25??
Rear 20 x 10.5 275/30/20 ??+45??

After playing around on a couple of wheel and tire package sites they are suggesting +20 and +45. If they were in fact +25 would be ok on an 08 g37s coupe with stock bbk? I know these wheel are concave but I doubt they're too aggressive with a 9in front

Thanks blnewt in advance!

Kronos check out the Help Squared Setup thread

Simpson is running 20x10.5 et25 squared on an x with 275/30/20. I doubt with 2in of drop that you'll be able to fit those tires, most likely going to need a very stretched setup

they are 19x9.5

I am a work so I don't have the link here...will have to post it later. But, square 19x9.5 on 255/40 +22 with 10mm spacers...me thinks that will fit nicely

For more moderate drops a lot of people run 255/35/20 but my guess is you would have to do something along the lines of 245/35/20. Since you drive an x I don't want to give you the green light for sure since my G is rwd and I know anything less than 255/35/20 will change the rolling radius by more than 1% and could negatively affect your awd system

If indeed they are a 9 +25 and 10.5 +45 they'll be fine on a coupe w/ those tire sizes, and you'll have room for even wider tires in back if you want to go wide when those tires wear down, a 295/30 would fit w/ those specs.

Should fit well without any spacing, and if you decide to really go hellaflush then the spacers may do the trick
