Staggered wheels and tires on a G37X Coupe
Hello Everyone,
I recently bought a set of Enkei RPF1 RS rims with the following specs:
18x10.5 / 0 offset - FRONT (The fronts already have tires 275/35/18)
18X11 -11 offset - REAR
1. My car is a 2012 Infiniti G37x Coupe, what size tires would you recommend to use on the front and rear to avoid having issues with the AWD system?
2. Besides that I also have a question, do you think that the specs of the rims allow me to use it with brembo brakes?.
I have asked fitment industries and they told me that yes and several friends who have Infinitis have told me that it also works but what worries me most is that the fitment does not look very flush, what would you recommend me to achieve a fitment that looks just with the fender.
The attached photo is an example of how I would like the fitment of the wheels to look like... Please help me with this project.

Those are some very aggressive wheel specs. I'm afraid to tell you that to make those wheels work, you'll need a lot of camber and stretched tires.
The picture you referenced has 18x9.5 +22 wheels and even then, it uses a tiny bit of camber to fit to get that look.
your wheels will look something like this in the rear:
Also, the Enkei RPF1RS I know in 18x10.5 +0 will not clear big brakes, it didn't clear the EvoX Brembo so it won't clear our Akebono, or if you have aftermarket Brembo, it won't clear those.

Asked and answered, OP. There aren't many members here for practical advice about cars that are slammed and cambered all the way to useless. No judgement, per se, because form-over-function is a personal choice. But mad.cool is right, the only way it's going to happen is with a whole lot of money, ending up with a car that you really can't drive.
However, I wish you luck. Make it happen, come back with pics and prove us wrong by how awesome it looks.
18x10.5 +0 in the front? Dude...
