GTR rim on g37s coupe

Hi I just bought some 2014 GTR premium rims and they are
20x9.5 +45 front 255/40/20 Front
20x10.5 +25 rear 285/35/20 Rear
And I want to know how can I make them fit with out chambering to much? The rear stick out about an inch I was thinking roll the rears abit more and maybe a smaller tire possibly 275 not 285? First time doin this so need some insight from you experts

I know it can be done but might not be a bad idea to roll while you're there. I'd probably go with 275/35 in the rear and see how that fits.

This looks photoshopped.

Now that you mention it...it does look shopped. It was just a quick google search but not many people have ran the premium GTR wheels, mostly just the Godzilla ones.
If you have some sources to play with, find a cheap used set of 245/35 and 275/30 and see how fitment goes.

All GT-R wheels are the same specs so it's an apples to apples comparison. GT-R tires are the wrong diameter, so they won't work regardless. A 10.5" wheel with a 25 offset for the rear is pretty aggressive, a 275/30 may fit, otherwise you'll need to step down to a 255/35 to make it work. It's going to vary from brand to brand with tires since some run wide while others run narrow.

I recently ran the 'godzilla' style GTR wheels with the same specs. They do poke in the rear a little bit. Here is how they looked with the 255/35/20 out back. I personally would have liked more meat back there, but it would have rubbed like crazy because I'm lowered.

Yea that's what I figured but I'm going to try and pull the fenders abit on Friday so I'll up date with pics I really wanna run the stock tire because it matches the fronts and they're brand new :/ hopefully I can get just enough to run a slight chamber and Matt that looks pretty good pokes a bit but not horrible,are you lowered on springs or coils? I have coils so might get away with 275/30

I'm lowered on coils. Not sure the exact drop at that time. I have since raise it a little to fit my current wheel/exhaust combo. Here is a potato pic of the side while lowered. It would take a lot of pulling and camber to get those tires to fit the rear.
