Vossen CVT 19" fitment opinions

Hello all, another thread about fitment here. I've been eyeing the Vossen CVT for my 08 G37S. I'm looking at the 19s because this car is my dd and the roads here are potholes with some pavement inbetween.

The fitment I was quoted is below. I want the wheels to be at max flush with the car but nothing more aggressive than that. Thoughts about this fitment?

Front: 19" 8.5 +32 offset, but requires a 5mm spacer kit to clear the front brakes (I'm told)
Rear: 19" 10.0 +42 offset.

Rochester has them on his Sedan and you will need the front spacer, you might want to just go to a 10mm spacer in front (w/ longer wheel studs) for a net +22, this should be a nice flush fit running 245/40/19s
For the rear, your only other offset choice is a +20 which is borderline fit for 275/35/19s, it would be "safer" to go w/ the +42 and get a large spacer to make it flush but would be even better not to have any spacer, you're right at the line where you may be able to go w/ the +20s. I think I'd shoot a PM to Diego@Vossen or one of the other Vossen regulars on the site and ask them first. And while you're at it you I'd ask about the 8.5 +15s in front, both of those aggressive offsets might just sneak in and eliminate ANY spacers.
Or if you have some free time, browse the Vossen wheel thread and see if there's other coupes running 8.5 +15front/10 +20s in back without issues.
