Luff m1
Hey guys, I have another wheel fitment question for ya.
I have a 2012 g37s in moonlight white.
I am getting a smokin deal on some luff m1s. $400
They are 20 x 8.5 35mm front
20 x 10.5 42mm rear
Also, the guy is throwin in some 15 mm spacers.
So question is will they fit, how will they fit, and do I need to use the spacers to clear bbk?
Gonna powder coat black, and the lip color match moonlight white, will be sweet.
Thanks a ton guys. Car is coming together nicely, done r2s intakes, blackout grille, emblems, white front emblem, black rear valence, smoked tails, Cusco bar all in about a month. Next I need put on my hid fogs with day time halos. Pics soon.
Thanks

Do you have a coupe or sedan?
Only pics I've seen of these wheels were on German makes so need to verify that they're 5x114.4 bolt pattern.
Should fit OK on a sedan w/ a stretched tire mount, coupe may need small spacers to flush up in back and bigger ones up front.
Need to verify if they'll clear your big Akebono brakes. Here's a front template you can send to the seller to verify fit.

Luff m1
Sorry forgot to say I'm in a coupe. Also bolt is 5x114 so we good there. It comes with 15mm spacers as well, so sounds like will be decently flush in rear and semi close in front huh? I don't have to have hella flush like some, just close is fine for me. I can't beat the price either. $400 is cheap. When new they were like $1100-1400 I think. They are barely used too. Just too bad luff is outta business I think. So hard to replace if dent one.
Will prolly drop on eibach pros soon too. How do u think the gap will be on stock? Also, do u think I will need to invest in camber kit w toe bolts etc. I know it will save me some tire wear, but wondering how necessary it is for this setup?
But will do until I can afford my work vs-xx I really want.
Thanks again

I'd run 235/35/20 F 275/30/20 R or 245/35/20 F 285/30/20 rear. Those 15mm spacers will come in handy in front I'm thinking.
And don't forget to verify brake clearance.

Don't have the necessary funds to buy new and the tire shop in town has a 255/40 set available.would that be ok and can i go 255/40 in the front? or should go around and keep looking? i know last time i tried this tire thing my speedometer ended up not working and dash lights turned on all over the place so i want to get this right. Thanks

Another option would be to run 235/40/19 fronts if they have those on sale too, the 235/275 set is only 0.67% off

I have a 2012 G37x sedan. I'm using my stock 17's with snows. So I'm looking to get some summer wheels. Someone is selling the M45 Sport 19's locally. I know the bolt pattern will work but will I need to run spacers?
The tires currently installed on the M45 rims are 245/40/19.
Thanks
The tires currently installed on the M45 rims are 245/40/19.

19" M45 Wheels Okay on G37X? : G35 and G37 Suspension, Brakes, Wheels and Tires
You'll probably want 15mm spacers to get the offset at +35 while running the 245s, should flush them up nicely. I'd get them first then decide exactly how much spacing you want though. Nice looking wheels for the G sedan IMO, classy but still w/ a sport look and a nice gunmetal shade.

B2Autodesigns is a site vendor and their house brand hubcentric spacers get good reviews. Ask for Charles & mention the site for nice prices.
H&R and Ichiba also make bolt-on spacers that are decent.
