Rim size questions

So I've been trying to read as much as I can on here but still of course have some questions.


I have a '10 G37X sedan running stock 17's right now. I'm now shopping for some new rims and tires and thought I was going to go with 19's - 245/35/19 & 285/35/19 but after pricing out tires and having a lot more rim options at 20's I now think I am going to go for 20's that is if they will be a good fit. I have stock springs if I go with 245/30/20 & 275/30/20 will I have any rubbing issues? (I know other cars I have been in with 20's always seem to have rubbing issues)I also have 3 kids who will be riding in the back seat at certain times. Thanks for any info.

Front tires are off, they need to be 245/35/20 not 30 series. Depending on your wheel offset you should be fine. Offsets of +40 front and +45 rear will be OK on 8.5"F 10"R wheels. 20s look a bit off if you're not lowered usually.

Well I was able to get a few more miles out of my stocks, but now is the time to get new wheels and tires.

I am having a tough time finding anything I like in the sizes mention but I did find some wheels I like in 20x8.5, 35 offset, 5x114.3 bolt pattern. Will I have any issues with this size? Also can I run 245/35/20 on all four?

Thanks for any input
