update I went more lower on my fronts 19x9+22 245/40 and it wound rub on every bump or dip so I was forced to remove my 25mm spacers now back to 19x9+47

I think a 9 +35 is about perfect running 245s w/ in spec camber, maybe a 15mm spacer FTW

Will this work.

Hey guys, I've been through quite a few pages on this thread and I just have a questions I hope one of you can answer. I'm looking to spice it up a bit on my G37 Sedan (non sport)

I'm coming into a set of wheels - specs are
19x8.5 +30 F
19x10 +35 R

I running -3 degrees of camber in the rear and -2.5 in the front (due to my last setup). My question is can I run a 245/40 tire on the front and a 275/35 tire on the rear with out rubbing and would it be possible to bring my camber back closer to stock with those offsets?

I forgot to mention I'm lowered on Tein S Techs - which (if I remember correctly) is somewhere in the 1.5 range for the front and 1.8 range for the rear.

Front tires will be OK at -1.5 camber but the front fender edge isn't flat-rolled like the rear so you'll have to keep an eye on that underside fender edge, you may have to roll it w/ the STech drop. The rear will barely tuck inside the fender so you'll probably be rubbing that felt fender liner for awhile but then it gets worn through and no more problems, that's what happened w/ my 295s on my 10s. You should be able to run about -1.5 in the back too.

Thanks for the response, blnewt. My main concerns are no fender damage and trying to save more tire but I do like the more aggressive offset. I'm going to pull the trigger and see how it goes. I imagine I could always go with a lower tire wall and get the speedo corrected. I did find a set of 245/40 and 285/35 tires for a great price - thinking about getting those to at least try the 285's in the rear with the +35 offset on the 10's and see how it comes out.
