I have a 2011 Infiniti G37 IPL Coupe. Soon, I would like to put new wheels on it and lower it, most likely with Eibach springs. Before I buy any of this, I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out if I would have any issues running this setup.
The specs for the wheels are:
Front: 20" x 8.5 +38 Offset
Rear: 20" x 10 + 45 Offset
The specs for the tires are:
Front: 245/35ZR20
Rear: 285/30ZR20
Can anybody let me know if I would have issues, or any rubbing? Also, is there a better way to lower than with Eibach springs, without a big price difference? And, will I need a camber kit?
Thanks in advance, guys! I couldn't find a similar thread, I apologize if it does exist somewhere.

Depends on what wheels you're wanting, some won't clear your big brake calipers. As far as width and offsets, those will work but you could go a bit less positve to have them closer to flush. Something like a 8.5 +30 and 10 +35 with those tire sizes.
As far as lowering, you could run Tein Basis coilovers and get just the height you want for about $600, if you drop more than 1.5" you should get at least a rear camber/toe kit, and drop 2" the front arms would be recommended for sure.
Eibach & Swift seem to be the most common mild drop springs so either would be a decent choice IMO.

Thank you for the info, I appreciate it. The wheels I am interested in are Vossen CVTs, I think they would clear the brakes.
My x coupe is lowered on Eibach and I'm running 8.5" +25 up front. I think +38 is way too high if you're gonna drop; you may be able to run the +20 I think they have available and still keep your camber in spec. But double check

Should be fine (although offsets are bit conservative in the front) but double check with vossen to see if they clear. My old car with similar specs on eibachs. Rubbed the rear fender liner however so may have to contend with that.
