I think wider rear tires just look hot. Look at the back of porsches. Even the boxster. Look at the size of those things, looks awesome.

it will look better from the rear, but unless you are dropped you are going to come into the world of major wheel gap.

The G37 fenders are rolled already. With 305/25/20 you will more than fine. U will have a 3.5 inc visible lip and a total of 4.2 inc lip.
