Niche targa

I have made up my mind. This is the wheel i want. Now i need width/offset answers. 2009 G37 Journey sedan lowered on eibach prokit with spc front/rear kit with toe kit. I want 19's. My question is for the rear. The car is on sitting on 19" coupe wheels now with 245/40's. It damn near tucks the tire now. What width and offset rear should i run? 9.5 or 10" with a 275? I want no rubbing and i do not want to have to camber the tire for clearance. Will there be any difference in the concave of the wheel between these two sizes? The 19x9.5" offset is +35. The 19x10" is +25.

The 9.5 +35s will be perfect for 275/35/19 tires . The 10" +25s are too aggressive by about 10mm. I'm running 10" +45 w/ 295s and it's pretty flush.
Are you going to run the 8.5" fronts or do you want the 9.5s in front too? The 9.5s in front will require a narrower tire for the front non-rolled fender clearance. I'd go 8.5" +35 245/40/19 in front w/ those 275s ion back.

I want the 8.5" fronts. Will the concave look be the same on 9.5" as the 10's or will it be less?

I'd try to contact Niche or one of their vendors w/ that question, the degree of concavity does tend to change w/ the wheel width but since it's only a 1/2" it's still probably very similar in the concavity.

^^^you running 295's in the front? I am thinking of 10 or 10.5 square setup on either 265-295's whichever will get me flushest without spacers

No, 245s on 8.5" front
Natalies Sedan has 10.5s all around on 255s

If you are comparing a 19x9.5 +35 and a 19x10 +25, the x10 is going to be more concave. It has a lower offset and a the wheel is wider. If you want to PM me I can get you exact fitment for your car.

Stock on mine was the wimpy 7.5" w/225s, I wanted a larger stagger and the wheels I wanted were available in 8.5 & 10 and I wanted the same mount on both wheels so the 245/295 was just about right.

I have an 08 g37s coupe. I just purchased new rims. 19x9.5/40 rear and 19x8.5/35 front. I have 10m spacers on rear and 15mm front. I also plan a mild drop on Swift springs.

My questions are: will a 275/35 and 245/40 tire work well with this setup? Any issues with rubbing? How close to flush will it be?

Thanks!

Perfect tire setup w/ those rims, not sure on the flushness but since you already purchased the rims you'll find out soon enough Should be fairly flush w/ a little wiggle room.

Great! That's what I figured, but just wanted confirmation before I ordered the tires. Thanks!

Just got my new tires and thought i would share to help everyone out with fitment.

Suspension: Dropped on Eibach Pro Kit
Wheels: Front=20x9 +25 w/255/35/20 Michelin Pilot super sport
Rear=20x10.5 +38 W/ 295/30/20 michelin Pilot super sport
no rubbing what so ever but looks like my struts/shocks are shot because my front left is lower then the right side and the rear right is lower then the rear left.
