Newbie tire and rim question
Hey sorry if this post aggravates anyone but I'm a total newbie when it comes to this tires and wheels situation. I'm looking to get new tires and rims for my 2010 Infiniti g37 coupe sport. Its totally stock. I was shopping for rims and tires and when it comes to the rims I want, either Vossen or Lexani, the tires that the rims are fitted for are bigger than stock. I just need to know the basics of increasing the size of the tires and rims. I don't want to change the suspension of my car so I gonna go with the stock rim size of 19 inch. What would I have to change if I increased my tire width to
Rims:
19x8.5 front
19x9.5 rear
Tires:
245/40ZR19 Y
275/35ZR19 Y
What would I have to change to make these fit so they would look flush with the tire and not stick out or anything.

Well your chosen tire sizes are pretty spot on. If you're wanting to go with the 8.5/9.5 setup you're primarily looking at the offsets. Anywhere from 30-40 is going to give you decent flushness with the fender. Now keep in mind, this is if you decide to NOT lower the car. This setup will not be aggressive if you later decide to lower the car. Also, contact whoever you are purchasing the wheels from or ask the forum if the particular wheel/offset combo will clear your sport brakes. Good luck!
