I'm looking at the Vossen CVT 19" would 19x10 all around be good? what tire would fit? would there be rubbing? I wanted like 19x9 in the front (maybe 9.5) but that size is not available I keep hearing that spacers might be need in the front to clear the akebonos? I'm trying to go for a flush fit. I'm lowered on eibach springs. 2008 g37 coupe RWD.

Hey Blenewt, do you know of a tire calculator that lets you calculate all 4 wheels at the same time? The 1010 calculator is good but it only lets you compare fronts or rear instead of front AND rear at the same time. I want to see what the overall speed variance difference is instead of just guessing. I mean I get the numbers for the f/r and write em down...then avg em out to get the variance but I am not sure that is the accurate way to do it

Looking for a quick answer on something.
Ordered some 19x9.5 wheels with 35mm offset on 245/40/19 tires. Unfortunately the wheels are back-ordered so I have two options.
1. stick with the 19x9.5 and use a 38mm offset
2. go with 19x8.5 and the 35mm offset
Since the tires remains 245 going down to 8.5 shouldn't affect the appearance correct? I don't which factor to prioritize, the offset or the rim width.

Go w/ the 9.5 +38, most wheels have more of a concave dish as the wheels go wider giving them a better look. And the 3mm difference isn't much and won't make the fit much different at the fender. The 8.5s will be a flatter face more than likely and be a bit more sunken in at the fender, not as good a look for sure.

19x8.5 +35 with 245/35/19
19x10 +40 with 275/30/19
Does anyone foresee any fitment issues with an AWD sedan?

Personally I would go rather with 245/40 and 275/35 anyways just because it's more meat, but the reason I'm asking is because I'm looking at a set of wheels and the tires are already on them and I don't want to buy new tires lol. Thanks for your input though!
