No plans on lowering. Would void warranty I have. The TSW wheels say they will fit, but they do not say anywhere what the offset is.

I found a link to the wheels I think I have decided on, however, they are not 9x19 +30. I do not see anywhere about a + anything on this site. ALSO, these wheels are 8x19. Will this be an issue.

Thanks again.
Do you have the link?

They have the offsets listed as +20 and +40, if you want a nice flush fit I'd go w/ the +20s since it's an 8" wide rim. Just click on the "Choose Bolt patterns & offsets" box

You think an 8inch wide rim would be alright? I had a bad experience with my last car, bought some wheels, and they looked super tiny...

BUT, these are 19's either way

I guess to sum it up, I'm looking for a wheel that will fit and won't look super tiny. For example, where the tires make my wheels look like some jeep wheels

An 8" square setup on 19s will look a bit "thin" since you're going taller and narrower.
These 18" wheels might just fit the bill, they'll look good on your stock suspension and are wide enough that you can put some wider tires on


They've got them in the perfect width and offset for your X coupe
ESR Wheels SR05 18" | Outcast Garage
Select "Hyper Black" and for the size select 18x9.5 +35 5x114.3
They even have a "Make an offer" box so you might even get them for less.
You could run a 245/45/18 or up to a 265/40/18, here's Lt8ches' coupe running 18x9.5 +30 on 265/40/18s for reference

Since you won't be dropped I think I'd just go w/ the 245s though, the tires are much more common so should get a nice price on them.
Here's one more option in a different style, these are typically $500 (or more) wheels so this is a great deal
Vossen CV1 19" | Outcast Garage
There's only two sizes left that fit the G, the 19x10 +38 5x114.3 in Matte Black or Matte Silver. You could run 255/40/19s all around for an aggressive squared setup.
Both of these pkgs are significantly more aggressive than the thin 19s and will give your G a bold look. I'd act fast on either setup as the deals are real good.

Very informative post man! I see you EVERYWHERE on this site

So when you say narrow, do you mean my tire will be narrow? I am not too concerned about that. Just don't want to look at my wheels and say, "damn, i should have went bigger..."

Those ESR wheels look amazing, but the color set up I'm trying to go with is not there. I am about to get a gloss black grille with the chrome outer and hopefully am going to send me headlights in to one eighty. Gonna have those painted gloss black as well, so I really need a gloss wheel I think...

Had the day off today so I was able to spend a bit more time around here, lol.
IMO a bit of contrast is a good thing and the "hyper black" center of the wheel is like a gunmetal/black mix, I think they'd look pretty nice w/ the combo you're talking about but you're the one buying them so it's your call.

As far as a narrow setup, again, your call. IMO a wider, more aggressive stance looks nice on these cars. The only time I'd recommend a narrow setup would be for a winter setup where you'd want narrower tires to cut, rather than plow through the snow.

These have a very similar look...

What do you think?

A bit wider so IMO a better fit.

Have you heard anything about this wheel brand? Don't want to blow 1700 on garbage?

Do you think they would look good in the G?

I think a 1/2" in width isn't enough to go with that wheel, those TSWs are a proven brand and you can still run 245/40/19s on them, the mount will be a bit pinched compared to a wider wheel so this will cause the sidewalls to roll a bit under severe cornering but only if you're really pushing the tires closer to their limits.

Definitely, and MRRs are a quality cast wheel.
