09 G37x coupe wheel spacers?

What size of spacer would I need to make the stock 18 inch rim and tire look flush with the fender?Are spacers any problems on a awd car?

I'm lowered on the Eibach Pro Kit and have 20mm Fronts and 25mm Rears. Brings the 18's almost flush, looks pretty good. Hope that helps!

I have a 2012 Infiniti G37xS Coupe. I recently installed rear H & R DRM spacers 20mm with my stock 19" 225s. The fronts are exactly the same size and diameter. My problem is that the garage that did the installation did not want to install my front 15mm DRS spacers reason being that they didn't want to be responsible for any resulting damage to the wheel bearings. I think that they are being overly concerned and that the real reason is that they never installed 15 DRS spacers in the front of a G37x before. Someone told me about plates on the front wheels of an X drive. I suspect that because these are DRS they would have had to remove the studs and this may have been the issue. Maybe they didn't have a tool to remove the studs and didn't want to bother?

I have a 2008 G37S Coupe, lowered on Eibach Springs about 3/4 to 1 inch.
My wheels are 19"
I put 20 mm Spacers front and rear.
Looks great.

Anyone have any answers or ideas about this? Anyone here with experience running wheel spacers?

I doubt they'd have issue if you had the bolt on version, probably just an extra PITA they didn't want to deal with. Won't put any more stress on the bearings than the same wheel w/ a more aggressive offset.
