Not yet, it's only been about 3,000 miles. I have lots of friends who run similar camber specs with minimal wear on the insides.

That's silly. That material is paper thin right there. You're not going to compromise the subframe by opening it up a bit. I destroyed a set of tires in no time at -3 and it looked stupid from behind.

^^^This.

A little mean-spirited but still good advice based on experience.

so i want 19inch coupe rims on my g37xS. one of my friends says that the staggered rims with mess my car up because of different widths. another one of my friend says nothing will happen as long as they are the same diameter. Do i get staggered? or do i not. If i do then what will happen during the tire rotation.

If you get staggered you won't rotate tires since the tire size will be different that's why a squared set up is good too rotate tires

I'm pretty sure you can still rotate left and right depending on the pattern of the tread. I'd still get a square setup just because I'm a simple man. I got 19x9 convertible wheels with a +30 offset all around.

Yeah, no big deal. Just go with 4 vert rear wheels. Lol...
A staggered vert set is hard to find, let alone 4 rears, which is next to impossible.

Nowhere in my post did I tell him to get a square vert set. It's actually easier than you think though. Just go to any eBay listing and look at the quantity of the item that's being sold.

That's a good method. You could also go in on two sets with someone if you can agree who gets the 8.5s and who gets the 9s, for instance.

I actually got my square coupe set out of our FS section. Which is nice...

I have a G37XS as well and I'm running a staggered set with the same size tires on all 4. The difference in width is only half an inch which is pretty negligible. It's true you won't be able to rotate them, but at least you don't have to worry about different diameters and messing with your AWD. I don't have any issues with them.
