iforged, dpe, hre, dcr, vip modular, cor wheels, auto couture, kinesis, jline, volk, work..

and tons more. there's plenty of places that offer deep dish wheels

i'd say somewhere around 850-1200 per wheel, depending on which brand and where you buy them from

does yours have the sport brakes? if so you won't be able to get a 5 inch lip

you can have these kind of wheels with the sport package, you just won't be able to have that big (5") of a lip.

depending on the wheel & offsets, you can have about a 3.5" - 4" lip with the sport package

the wheels i ordered are supposed to have a 2.5" front lip and 3.5" rear

I still dont see how you guys are saying you can get a 4" lip on a G37 with factory big brakes (sport). On a G35, a you can get a true 4" lip with stock brakes (brembo or not). That means from the rivets to the outside, assuming the spokes do not curve. If you get a cheater lip, where the spokes curve in, you can get up to a 5" lip.

With the G37, you just cant get a true 4" lip. Maybe if the spokes curve in like crazy or maybe if you measure from behind the spoke and rivet area, but then I might as well say a G35 can have a 6" lip.

Wheel manufacturers measure the lip from face where the wheel's inside and outside barrel sections meet. I believe HRE, DPE, I-Forged, and a bunch of others all go to the same supplier for the barrel sections.

^^^ I understand but on the G35, you can get a lip of 4" plus the spoke so I guess 4.5" from the face. I'm just saying, people make it seem as if you will have a huge lip and then people wonder why the lip appears to be so small when they get it.

Ive got about 4" of lip in the rear, and its almost too much for me. I would think 5" would be a bit extreme.

I talked to a friend who works for Mackin industries ( volk U.S distributer ) and wheel expert, and I was told the G's max size is a
10.5 rear offset +30 - +35.
