Hey guys, I have the 2012 G37x with the basic 17" wheels and they just look terrible. All I want is either the 19" anniversary edition 9 spoke wheels or the 19" 10 spoke coupe wheels, but I need a square setup for the AWD.
*Based on my research I don't think I'm repeating a question but here goes:
If i can't find a square set, and buy the staggered wheels, can I simply put 225/45/19 tires on both sets of wheels even though the width is slightly different? I'm not sure how much tires can stretch for the rear wheels, and I'm not sure if this would make my car look weird in the way the tires fit.
also, I'm assuming that even if the tiers are all the same and this does work, I would still not be able to rotate them because the wheels are different...
any clarification would be appreciated!!

I found a local deal on a set of Ace Convex wheels. The wheel specs are 20x8.5 with +45 offset and 245/35/20 tires all around.
How will this setup look on my G37xS sedan?

Just picked up a 2013 G37x Sedan for my fiancé. Planning to lower it on S Techs with camber kit and toe bolts and all that jazz. I've found my wheels of choice and realized after weeks of research that I can't run an 11" wheel in the rear without really stretched tires and like -5 degrees of camber. Knowing this I've decided to go with 9.5 35et all around. I plan on adding a 5mm spacer up front and a 10mm spacer in the rear. I'm debating 255/40/19 all around or 235/40 and 265/35. Will also be rolling fenders as flat as possible. No pulling as I do not want to destroy the OEM body lines.
With that being said, any recommendations?

I've found a set of wheels I like but the 19" versions don't have any offset choices.
For a staggered setup, the front is 19x8.5 +32 offset and the rear is 19x10 +48. Will the rear work?
G37s coupe, stock suspension. Thx
