G37x and 20inch RIMs question

Newly proud owner of a g37x 2010 coupe
I have heard rumors that if 20s are put on, I need a camber kit
Any advice or is this even true?
p.s. not lowering the car, keeping it stock height due to long travel at times

Probably shouldn't be a problem. I don't think it'll change anything that much.

If you are not dropping the car, you won't need a camber kit,
just try to stay close to the OEM rolling diameter spec,
and this would mean getting thinner tires

I have a 2011 AWD Coupe, and I've got 20's sitting in my garage right now waiting to be mounted,
But I first need to put on my Eibach springs and SPC camber kit,
i'm gonna put on my 20's on OEM springs just for the heck of it, lol
But I can assure you, it won't look good if you don't lower it, especially on the AWD

The typical staggered combo you see on the x is 245/35R20 (20x9.0) and 285/30R20 (20x10.5). That's what I'm running as well.

Definitely need to lower it else you'll have 4x4 status. You're better off leaving the wheels as is if you don't plan on lowering. As for tires you can go 285 or 275 and it'll still be within recommended rolling diameter for an X.
