They should fit just fine. You can fit up to 32s without a lift, but you may need to pound the pinch welds flat to prevent rubbing at full lock.

While those tires will fit the car, your ECU is going to have fits with the significantly larger tire diameter. It has the OE size hard-coded into it and a deviation of ±3% will cause the ABS and traction control warning lights to illuminate. Those BFG's are almost 7% larger in diameter than stock. You need 245/45-18 to get back into your ECU's good graces.

Factory tire size diameter is 26.7 inches.
The tire diameter of that 245/55-18 is 28.6 inches.
Your speedometer will not be correct. It will read 60mph when your really going 64. It will read 70mph when your really going 75mph.
Like the other poster said, you need 245/45-18s which are 26.7 inches in diameter. That is also the factory rear tire size on the G37 'sport' sedan models.

thats your tire diameter not your wheel, and we are talking width.
Flip the wheel to see the inside, and look for a number followed by a “j” or “jj”. This is your width.
Now look for a number that says “+##” or “et ##”. Or just a number, should be something between 35 and 55 by the looks of them.
Heres a photo for example.
