Figured I'd post up.

Gram Light 57xtreme's

19x10.5 +43 305/35 R19
19x9 +35 255/40 R19

Tires:
Rear - Nitto NT05R
Front - Nitto Invo

No rubbing, no grinding. Just bolt and go. You'd probably have to cut down the rear bumper mounting bracket if you haven't already.

Camber is within spec at all four corners.

How much clearance do you have from the inner lower arm to the tire?

Just the factory roll. plenty of clearance from the lower arm. The bolt however is closer. There is about 3MM of clearance. I drove it hard around some tight bends and the tire didn't flex enough to rub.

If you want to run 305's, this is the setup you want. +43 on the offset and no wider than 10.5.

Are the 37 coupes' flat-rolled like the sedan in the back? I know the 35 coupes weren't so that's what I was going by.
Awesome combo, bet that bad boy sticks like roofing tar

20mm spacers will put you at +27. A lot of folks (including me) run the vossen +25's on 245's. They clear (barely) but you have to be careful of hitting bumps with the wheels turned. You will hit your fender and bend them depending on how low you are.

Natalie is tucking 305/25/20 on her G sedan now

20x9.5 +25 255/30/20 & 20x10.5 +45 305/25/20

More pics to come. The fitment is very tight, I was concerned it was gonna lay on the fender but tucks perfectly. At normal drive height there is no rubbing at all which surprised me lol.
