Exclamation Will these fit? (Winter setup)

Hey, I just found this set up on craigslist for a great price and am wondering if these will fit on a 2011 G37S Coupe 6MT:

ASA seven-spoke 18" alloy rims with Bridgestone Blizzak LM-60 snow tires. Size 225/45R18 (front), 245/45R18 (rear)

The seller says these were on a 2006 G35 coupe.

The ad was put up a few days ago and I don't think it'll be up much longer, the sooner I know if these will fit the better! Please help!

The big sport brakes are tough to clear on most 18" wheels. These templates can be sent to the seller to verify.

Those templates confused me a little but I think it would take a lot for the seller to go through the hassle to test that out. I'll ask him though. Thanks.

Anyone else want to chime in?

If you have the particular wheel model w/ the offsets that may help. If tirerack.com sells that wheel you can verify that it will clear by entering your exact vehicle in the info section, then if they list that wheel you will know it fits.
If the seller isn't getting much response they may be willing to verify the clearance, never hurts to ask.

Here are the pics of the wheels and tires. I believe these are the ASA JH3 (aka Sport Edition A7). The seller will confirm the model and offset tomorrow.

My ASA's clear Akebono's but they look different. Btw its recomended to run same tires all around when it comes to winter tires.

Thanks for the link. Just out of curiosity, why is it recommended to have the same tires all around for winter?

You want the same amount of traction front and rear to provide better stability, keeps the car from wanting to spin.

I have the same setup (from Tirerack) sitting in my storage right now. They will clear the brakes
