Thanks man appreciate the help!

Looking to grab a set of wheels for my 2011 G37X Sedan: 20x9 et38 with 245/35/20 tires. Will I have any issues with fitment based on the offsets? I see alot of guys running 20x9 et32 but havnt found anyone running 20x9 et38 all around.

If it's been answered (probably has) I apologize! I swear I searched but probably skipped over it by mistake.

Thanks in advance!


Edit: Will be going with Swift Springs

Those will be fine, keep in mind the 19" coupe wheels that a lot of sedan guys run are 8.5+43 & 9"+45 staggered, so yours would be 7mm further out than those rear coupe wheels, this will be a better fit at the fender and will still have some room w/ those 245s, so no rubbing there

I swear I hate offset questions but here we go again...

370z Sport Wheels
F: P245/40R19 19x9 +47
R: P275/35R19 19x10 +30

Will they fit G37x Sedan? I plugged in the numbers, +1.8 inches of poke in the rear, so not sure...

I don't see a problem with those sizes and offset fitting but I could be wrong.

You're sure you want to run that much stagger on an AWD...?
And by poke, do you mean 1.8in past the fender OR just 1.8 further out than what you are now

There's no issue with running a staggered setup per se, as long as you keep overall diameters the same (which with those tire sizes looks okay). The only thing about that specific spec is the rear which will be a pretty aggressive fit. It's been done on a sedan before but not sure what kind of modifications were necessary.

Yeah, the main problem w/ that is since it's so tight in back it really limits your tire selection, and w/ AWD you really MUST be within 1% Front to back diameter variance. Something like a 235/40 & 265/35 combo possibly. The 245/275 setup may need some camber help in back.

A shot in the dark here but what's the lowest offset anyone here has run in the rear of a coupe with 285/30 on a 20x10 and still stayed in spec?

absolutely 0 modification with the 370z wheels. However, you want to run a 20mm spacer up front to make thinks look even.

19x10 +30 re30 clears oem akenbono

Update to my situation. Wheels and tires arrived so i decided to see if the front 19x10 +30 clears our oem akenbono. It does with ease 2-3 mm clearance. I found a website that says it does and its face type L1 which gives the most bbk clearance as opposed to L2 which has the most concavity of the re30 lineup.
Thought id share since people run gtr wheels it might help since these are gtr sizes.
