New after market wheels make popping noise - Help!

Hello everyone I recently got new aftermarket rims for my ipl. Rear rims are 19x10.5 +43 offset with 305/30R19 pirelli tires for the back. Front is 19x8.5 +35 offset with 255/35R19. Now the car is lowered by about 1 inch on HSD coilovers nothing crazy you can still see tire gap. My problem is when I replaced the front rims and tires I'm getting loud popping sound from both front left right wheels when I turn wheel left right as I exit my parking spot slowly. It wasn't like this with my own stock wheels. I took off the front wheels to see if it was rubbing anywhere.... Nothing. I used my oem lug nuts on these aftermarket wheels maybe that's the problem. They are braelin br10 wheels btw. But aside from that wheels are not moving when jacked up. It's rwd so it eliminates a lot of potential problems. My guess tire is touching the control arm? I'm running out of ideas but I think my next step is to get spacers and different lug nuts. Please Help!!!!!

OEM lugnuts are mag style lugnuts. Usually do NOT work with aftermarket rims. Did you test fit wheels before mounting the tires?

Yea maybe the lugnuts are the problem. The wheel was sitting properly when I test fit it.

And the wheels are hub-centric? Do you need hub rings?

Aftermarket rims help

I also have a question I recently put on new rims (ferrarda fr2 rims) and new tires with those rims on my infiniti g37 and my dash lights all came on Abs, brake, tps, check engine, key, traction off. What can I do to fix this. When I had my old infiniti rims on and tires this was never a problem. My guage that also tells me mph doesnt work either. Help

If you have AWD then that would explain some of the dash warnings, if you do have AWD those tire sizes are extremely incompatible.

Man you have a lot to learn. OEM lugs on aftermarket wheels. No sensors and awkward tire sizes. Spend some time reading here before you break something or crash.
