19" AGs only have conservative offsets, good for running wider tires but won't be right at the fender edge (the wheel edge, not the tire)
the AG 19x8.5 +35 on a 245/40 and 19x9.5 +40 on a 275 or 285/35.
The Niche have good front offsets, a 20x8.5 +25 on a 245/35 but no 20x10" wheel in the 5x114.3 bolt pattern, and the 10.5 is a +45, you could run up to a 295/30 in back with those.
If you were to do either set you'd probably want a rear spacer for Niche and front & rear spacers for the AGs to get that flush fit that you're wanting.
new g owner.i have a 2013 g37x with the stock 17in wheels.
i would like to go to an 18 inch wheel. the two i like are
18 x 8 35 offset
18 x 8 45 offset
i am afraid the 35 offset would stick out too much and the 45 off will be too close to the strut. both are on discount tire direct so i assume they know they will fit.
is anyone here running an 8" wide wheel with either a 35 or 45 offset and can let me know how they fit?

You'll be fine with either, but the +35 will be a better fit, it won't be flush to the fender but will be out about 5/8" from your current 17x7.5" wheels. You can run up to a 245/45/18 tire but a 235/45/18 is the best mount on an 8" width. I would consider a 18x8.5" wheel on a +35 offset, this is a better size for a 245/45 tire and will be a nice fit all around.
I've been lurking for a long time trying to find an answer to what I'm looking for, but have come up short.
I have a 2012 Journey coupe, and I'm looking to go up to 20" wheels. I want to run either an 8.5 or 9 for the front and a 10 for the rear. I plan on dropping on Eibach springs, and i would prefer to keep the wheels behind the fenders/flush. i don't want to poke at all, which is why I'm hesitant to run a 10.5 in the rear.
is there a particular offset for the 8.5/9-10 setup to get the look i want, or is there an offset for the 10.5 rear that will get me where i want to be?
Ive been eyeing a few of the Niche, AG 590's, and Rohana RC7 wheels. Vossens seem to be too aggressive for what I'm looking for.

Check out a member's setup for reference. I'd say its probably the best setup you'll want to look for and also a great reference to work with.

Lowered on Eibach ProKit, front and rear SPC camber kits, camber is within OEM spec but on the far negative side. No rubbing - my rear fender liner has been trimmed previously. My bumper bracket is not trimmed.
thinking about running 20x10.5 +30 square setup on my g37xs coupe that will be lowered on swift springs. what size tires would be best for this? 275/30/20 or something with a 35 series sidewall? came across this pic on the forums of a 275/30/20 on a 20x10.5 +25 but lowered on eibachs which sit slightly lower than the swifts do on the awd coupe.

That's Simpson's coupe, unfortunately most of the pics are vaporized thanks to Photobucket
A 10.5 +30 will be a better setup as far as clearance, you could run the 275/30s which will be much closer to your OEM diameter vs. the 275/35 which is about an inch taller and may have a bit more clearance hurdles there. You could also run a 265/30 which will give another 5mm room to the fender, that combines w/ the 5mm more room for the offset will get you a good cushion and a bit less prone to tramlining. Only downside is 265/30/20s aren't nearly as common so the tire you want may not be available in that size
appreciate it, i really liked the way that Simpson's coupe turned out. i was looking into tires earlier and there wasnt hardly as big of a selection in the 265/30 as compared to the 275/30. probably will go with the 275/30, now just need to figure out which tires to run

I ordered 20x10.5 Vossen VFS1 wheels +25 all around for my G coupe Sport. Will it clear my sport brakes? I should have confirmed this earlier.. please tell me it does.. lol

They should but I would contact the vendor ASAP and ask for confirmation, hopefully they haven't shipped them out yet.
BTW, what tires are you planning to run? 275s are going to be real tight there without some camber.
