Just went from G35 to G37: Wheel Question

As the title suggests I just traded in my '06 G35 AT Coupe for a '10 G37 MT Coupe. Both had the 19" wheels. I bought a set of aftermarket Enkei to put summer rubber on. (Snow rubber on stock wheels). The million dollar question is will I have enough offset on my existing summer wheels/tires to fit on the G37 now. Comparing from the manual and specs I have looked up the G35 had like 32-35mm of offset which was perfect because the set of Enkei aftermarkets I bought have 35mm. Now that I look at the G37 it is listing 43-45mm front and rear offset. I haven't had a chance yet to get the car jacked up and physically test fit the wheels, so I am praying someone will give me some confidence that these things are going to clear the brakes. All the other dimensions for the wheels I know will be no issue, it's the offset that has my stomach turning.

Yes, those are the wheels I had on the G35, those stayed with the car when it was traded in, the aftermarket ones were of the same 19" diameter, pretty much the same offset, and just wider by 1" front and rear. 8.5" front width, 9.5" rear width.
Thank you for welcoming me!
