that's his daily driver
you can't get bigger tires.. since the offset is aggressive enough for the rims to sit past the fenders, if u get bigger tires, they will actually be sitting directly underneath the fenders. that means whenever springs travels, ur tires are gonna hit ur fenders, not only major rubbing but possibility of breaking ur fender walls as well.
thats why u get skinny tires, so that they will travel behind the fenders and not actually hitting on ur car..
if u want fat tires, then go 9.5 +35, 10.5 +37 like i do.. my rears are pretty flushed but overall, both fronts and rears are pretty fugly sitting inside the wheel wells.. you see how my rims are sitting behind the fenders? I could do +15 spacers in the front though, my rears are pretty flushed..
and in short.. flush = fugly, poke = sexy!
and i bet 95% of all G37 drivers don't have rims poking out from their fenders like that
it's all about offsets, tires, camber, and drop.. hopefully this is of some help

Wow, I just saw this Eric. I love the IP/Gold combination. This was my setup with my old 350Z.
I love the stretched tire look. Freaking sexy. I love your new wheels. When I saw your G in San Jose, the weakest mod of your G was the wheels. Now it's bad azz.
Congrats and stay away from curbs.

I love how people post stuff on a forum looking for opinions and then get all offended if anybody criticizes it. This is an opinion-generated forum and not everybody is going to think your **** is the "shizzzz". I don't personally like that look, but what does that matter to you? Its your car. If you are asking my OPINION (which you are by default when you post pics on a forum) I say it looks a little low-rider ese....
