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.

Ok, I'm ready for the flaming, but I can't find the answers I need. There are some wheels for sale here local with these specs.
Front wheels are 20x9 +45 offset, rears 20x10.5 +38 offset

They were on a coupe, is there any chance these will fit a sedan without stretching tires, and would I be able to fit at least a 275 in back? Car is stock but will be getting a drop soon.

It would be better if the offsets were reversed (w/ the +38 in front and +45 in back). The 10.5s w/ +45 running 295s are barely inside the fenders when dropped on Eibachs, so the 275s will clear but the wheels will be sticking out a bit. 275s are a straight mount on 10.5s so they won't be stretched, but the +38 on those wheels will bring them out right to the fender edge. Here's some 10.5 +45 for reference (on 295s)

Thanks, I thought the guy may have been wrong on the offset and was correct, the 45 was out back so I picked them up. Now to swap the 265 for some 275 or 285 and I'll be set. You think I should go 30 or 35 for the sidewall?

For your staggered set I'd run 245/35/20 Front 285/30/20 Rear, you & your car will be happy w/ that size

Hey guys, I think (I hope) I've done my homework and I want to pull the trigger on a set of wheels but I wanted to see if anyone who has a similar setup has some input/advice here first. I want to go as aggressive as possible without pulling the fenders, and I'm looking at the Work Kiwamis.

I've got a '10 G37s Sedan

Front: 19"x 9.5 +25
Rear 19"x10.5 +32

For tires I'm gonna stretch them a bit, nothing too crazy. Thinkin 255/40(35?) in the back and 235/40(35?) in the front.

Going to be getting either tanabe coils or swift springs, haven't decided yet but I wont to flat out slamming it since the roads are garbage where I live.

Here's Natalies Sedan on 10.5 +45 all around on 255/30/20s for reference
https://www.myg37.com/forums/picture...g37-sedan.html
As you can see that's pretty aggressive, the +32s w/ 255/40/19 will work w/ heavy camber as will the +25 in front w/ the 235/40/19. If you don't want any fender mods the camber is about the only way to get the fit and rolling the front fender will probably be needed depending how low you drop on coils.

Thanks, I appreciate the input man. I was hoping the natural camber from lowering it on springs would take care of it but the math is not looking good for this set up. Gonna have to rethink my wheel choice since that's most conservative set up I can get with those wheels.

Need some help tire gurus... just received my wheels and not sure what size tires I can do to avoid any rubbing. Here's the stats: 2010 sedan s w/bbk rwd.
20x8.5 +35 front
20x10 +40 rear
Wheels: gianelle yerevan
Dropped on eibach pro kit
I was thinking 245/275 30 or 235/255 30.

The other thing is the front rims BARELY clear the bbks. Maybe just 1mm or so of clearance but the wheels spins freely. I'll be using extended lugs due to the design but should I use a very small spacer for better clearance. 3mm or 5mm

CZP recommends at least 2mm clearance so a 3mm spacer would be a good idea and you should have enough thread exposed for a safe install. My wheels are close to you specs and I'm running 245/35/20F 295/30/20 rear. With your specs I'd run 245/35/20F and 275/30/20 or 285/30/20 on the back.You should run 35 series in front and 30 series in back for diameter to be closest to OEM.
Here's my setup for reference on 8.5+40F 10+45R
