Wheel decision

So, I'm looking at going with either

Nessen S | 7.1CS C O N C A V E | S T A N D A R D,
ZP.FORGED 18 Deep Concave | Matte Black / Gloss Black Lip

anyone has experience with these wheels? Would they fit a 2011 g37s 7at? Or are they similar wheels like these that I'm looking for that are better for our cars?

All depends on width and offset.

Got pics?

Not going to at least 19s?

I'm putting 20s on mine.

I like them both, but the top one looks easier to clean. Something to consider when buying wheels. Especially concave types.

So I saw member "Ryne" setup and it looked nice. Except I would go with different wheels. His sizing was

".... Wheels:
  • Front: 20x9.5" +25 (Mid Concave)
  • Rear:20x10.5" +40 including 5mm hubcentric spacer (Deep Concave)

Tires:
  • Front: 245/35R20 Continental DWS06
  • Rear: 285/30R20 Continental DWS06 ......" Would this work for me?

The sedan wants more than +25 offset in the front.

As for so 2008, that's a silly argument. The larger the wheel, the heavier it is which hurts acceleration, both longitudinal and lateral; also, the worse your ride; lastly, the easier they are to dent because of thin sidewalls.

If all you you're after is looks, then have fun.
