Convertible can handle much more offset so you should be able to get those to fit. Might shoot a pm to cereal2k, he runs aggressive setups on his vert.
19 X 8.5 5X114 +30 front - 245/40/19
19 X 10 5X114 +20 rear - 285/35/19
It is a perfect fit! No need to lower the car and mess with the weight of the roof. Looks great!
19x11R on 275/40/19
19x9.5F on 245/35/19
I want to rid of the wheel gap that I have, would springs be ok without a roll/pull? I don't want to go all out on coil overs if I don't have to.

A mild spring like Swift & Eibach works well, but may need rear camber/toe kits to keep your tires wearing ok.
Check Soundmikes' fit here~ he's running 9.5+38 on 255s, if you ran 245/40s all around you'd get the same fit at the fender~
To 18s back i go! - G35Driver
If you ran 255s instead you'd be 5mm out from those so you would need some camber help.

Those type wheels w/ the extended lip definitely make BBK clearance tough sometimes. Does the Work Kiwami or the new T7R do anything for you? Those wheels should have much more room FWIW.
Almost everyone would say to just go with coilovers from the get-go, since you kind of never really know exactly how much of a drop you're going to get with springs. If you think a particular set of springs looks good in pictures, they may end up being too much or too little when you see them installed in person. Besides, with aftermarket springs you will likely need aftermarket shocks to compensate for the change in spring rate, otherwise you will blow out your stock shocks. And there are some pretty decent budget-friendly coilovers that will set you back not much more than a full set of springs & shocks.
Yeah, they're already installed at stock height and have ZERO rubbing during any style of driving. The rear could use at least 1/2 inch drop but the front would need almost 2 inches. Which springs would be best? Or should I just bite the bullet and get coilovers? Here are some pics, ignore the thrashed fender trim, replacements are on the way.
Would surely benefit w/ a mild drop.

Is this calculator legit?
For a 19" wheel, the difference between each degree of camber is 33mm. That seems excessive. The way the calculator works, it takes the angle from the bottom lip of the wheel. That doesn't make sense, as the pivot point is around the hub, not the bottom lip.
Either way, this gave me false hopes, I think.
