Wheel questions for G37S Coupe?

Wanting to go VMR v710's for my Coupe. I think not a lot of people run it (or barely any) on myG37 because they used to not make the bolt patterns for our cars but now they do!
I want the rims to be straight down from the fenders, not poking out like crazy, not tucking in. I will be dropping it down mildly to where the top of the tires are if not a bit higher to not worry about rubbing D:

How is this?:

F: 19x9.5, +22mm
R: 19x10, +25mm
Do you think I can get away with 19x11, +25mm for the Rears? Or would that be protruding?

Let me know if anyone has had experience with any of these 3 measurements Front and Rear.

Also you think this is good for tires?:
F: 245/40/19
R: 275/35/19

Thanks!

Rear will be perfect for you. Fronts will be poking a little unless your lowered a couple inches.

You meant Rear as in the 19x10 one, right? Not the 19x11?

And ooh.. would you recommend me going 19x8.5 (+35mm) instead of the 19x9.5 (+22mm) for the front? Those are the only 2 they have that i think would be okay for the front.

The 19x11 rears and 19x9.5 +22 seems to be a really aggressive fitment. You'll definitely have to run tire stretch on those. The 19x8.5 and 19x10 combo will be much more conservative. Depends on which direction you want to go and how low you plan to drop (if any). The aggressive offsets might take some work to fit but I'm not an expert on offsets for the G37.

Thanks!
I don't want to be too aggressive. I was hoping for wider rears and flush with the fenders, not poking out, so seems like it'll be 19x10's Rears.

Maybe I'll do 19x8.5 Fronts and adjust with spacers as needed haha. Cuz I'd rather not be poking out if the 19x9.5 +22 are too much D:

Yes the 19x10. As for the Front, yes run the 19x8.5 ET35 with a 10mm spacer

19x8.5 +35 w/ 10mm spacer is still tucking. Go with a 15mm spacer and 40 profile tires will look fat and take away from the appearance. Your choice.

9.5 +22 is easy to run with if you just run a little negative camber

Thanks! I was hoping to go as wide as possible but 19x8.5 should be fine haha

Dang... I dont know if I want to go negative camber D;
I'll probably go with 35 profile tires then. I just saw something about 40/35 F/R in other threads, that's why I considered it. I don't know why they did that hmm..
