Hello all!
Really sorry if I am beating a dead horse with my question here but the more I google or sift through countless forum postings the more confused I make myself.
I have a 2011 G37 Coupe that is sitting fairly low on some cheapo Godspeed springs (coilovers in a few months). The ride is not terrible but I digress. So... recently acquired some shiny new XXR 530 wheels.
Specs:
Wheels: 19x8.75 +35 Squared set.
Tires: 225/40r19 (yes... weak I know).
The tires are temporary and I want to try and keep them rotatable so would prefer same size all around since I wanted a squared set of wheels for ease of use etc.
I think I want 245/40 to help keep more rubber on the ground but even with the +35 offset I can't visualize any wider/taller without a rub issue. Lack of experience with this vehicle is my guess. I see all these nice wheel and tire sizes posted here and cars that from first glance look like the tires will rub to shreds and or destroy a fender/wheel well. My hope is to get spacers in time as well to bring them out a tad. Any suggestions on tire size? Two different sizes for Fr/R optimal? I can live with no rotating if need be I suppose but would prefer 4 the same. My goal is to avoid any rolling of fenders at all and to try and keep my liners.

You can run quite a bit more tire without any issues whatsoever. An ideal mount on an 8.75" width would be a 255, so a 255/40/19 would be the tire size I'd go with. You won't have any problems at the fenders for sure! Also hopefully you got hub adapter rings w/ your new wheels, this will keep any high speed vibrations to a minimum.

Here's a recent post, running 19x9 +35 on 255s, you would be 3mm inside from this one in front and 8mm more room in back (since he has a 5mm spacer in back)

I'm guessing the 370Z and G37 RWD Sedan don't have identical fitment. I was looking at these, would it be possible? https://www.ebay.com/itm/19-ROHANA-R...d=283066707506
For those who cant click the link:
19x8.5 front and 19x11 rear
15mm front and 28mm rear

Alright, judging by the wheel fitment thread 19x10.5 40mm should fit pretty well (squared) on a rwd sedan. Does that sound about correct? Saw others with similar at 43mm. If so I found the wheel I'm looking for.

Correction I meant 19x10's. Still think it would contact?
