The OFFICIAL "I have a wheel offset / tire fitment question!" thread
#526
Hi Guys,
I've read through this thread and used the tire calculator, so I'm 90% positive this setup will fit with no rubbing or clearance issues...but just want to confirm with someone more knowledgeable. The tire calculator confused me a bit.
Specs:
G37s Coupe
Looking to purchase an 18x9.5 square setup
Offset unknown
Tires are 18/225/50
I'm working on getting the offset #. Any and all help is appreciated!

Would 19x9.5 look ridiculous on an x Sedan with no drop? I found a set of 19x9.5 42 offset Volk Racing SF Winning wheels with brand new Toyo Proxes 4 tires 245/40/19 for a really great price locally. Is there anyway these could work without having to change anything major? I believe the rolling diameter is the same. I was looking for something more like 8.5 or 9 wide but.. I really love these wheels and it's such a great price that I have to buy them if I can make it work!

I will be getting Forgestar CF5V (Bronze) 19x8.5 (F) 19x9.5(R)
Front tires 245-40-19 and Rear 275-35-19
I have a 2008 G37 Journey Coupe on Eibach springs and swaybars.
I'm trying to get a flush look and not have any rubbbing issues and I don't want to get any spacers. will the above specs work?

Hi guys
Here is my challenge; I want my car to look like this one. I know the wheels are Avant Garde that are 19 X 9.5 with a offset of probably 40, and that it does'nt clear akebono brakes without spacers. In order to clear brakes a custom offset without spacers is in the range of 20ish which I know is pretty aggressive. Does anyone knows the owner?
or can get me some info so I can replicate the look.
Thanks

The pics on the white G look like it's running wider than an 8.5 in front, looks like a 10" squared setup by my untrained eye

Hi I already talk to Vibe Motors and they told me the car has 9.5 square set up with spacers but don't remember the width of the spacers. Also talked to need4speed (vendor) and they say to fit w/o spacers it has to be customize to offset 20 or 20 something.
And my question is what needs to be done to fit a 19 x9.5 square setup +20 offset?

9.5s are the widest rim for a standard mount on 245s, so you can swap tires. This would be a good plan as you could get a good idea for exactly how much tire you can go when the old ones are worn. depending on offset you could run up to a 275/35, I wouldn't go wider than that since the front has less clearance than the rear.

^You are the man! Thanks for the help. The offset is +40, like the avant garde rims that g37fan is talking about I would need to run a custom offset in the low 20s to clear the akebono bbk. I've been talking to getyourwheels and that was the answer I was given, I'm not looking to do any extra work regarding fenders so I'll just purchase the +40 offset and use spacers. Thanks again for the help regarding the tires.
