G37S coupe rims on a G37xs Sedan

Hi guys, I apologize because I'm sure this issue has been addressed before, however I was not able to find the response I'm looking for in previous threads.

I have an opportunity to pick up a set of G37S coupe rims (staggered) for my winter set up on my G37xS sedan. They are 19x8.5 in the front, and 19x9 in the back. My question is, if I were to wrap these rims in 245/40/19 tires on all four corners, would I have an issue with my AWD system?

I'm assuming since the tires are the same on all four corners I should have no issues, however I was hoping some of the wheel and tire gurus could chime in on the issue and confirm my suspicions!

Thanks guys!

It's such a minimal stagger that you should be OK, there may be a slight change in rolling diameter but within the 1% variance window.

I think I'd stick w/ the narrow OEM wheels for the winter set and get some nice grippy summer tires in 235/40/19 front, 275/35/19 rear w/ those new 19s.

Thanks for the reply! That's pretty much the plan, ill be running the coupe 19s in the winter with 245/40/19 all around. For the summer I've got my CV3s wrapped in 245/40/19 on the front, and 275/35/19 on the back

I was mostly concerned with the OEM wheel stagger because I see several people here on the forums try and source out either 4 front wheels or 4 rear wheels and I wasn't quite sure why That's why I figured id check before pulling the trigger on the coupe rims.
