Not taking sides, but I think that is just how Iforged decided to fit them for the g35 coupe. A local member had some 19" iforged aeros that fit pretty similarly with a stretched 265/35/19 on there, so it is possible they came from a coupe

Since you aren't running a stretched tire and not much negative camber at all, that is why it looks so bad IMO

Man looking at the pics again, it almost looks like you are running Pos camber in the rear!

With some negative camber and smaller tires I think it would fit and look awesome.

the only suspension i have on there is TEIN Basics. i have no camber kit and when my car has its stocks on, you can see the fronts and rears tucking under the fender.
Hey Ghayes23, where in sac are you? if you ar close to midtown, you are more then happy to come and check them out anytime tonight before i go back to stock. that goes for anyone else nearby too! some angles dont look too bad but others are horrible!

I cant see the pic because im at work and they block certain things. what were your buddies lip size and offset? maybe since mine are 20's that might make a big diff? there are always these pics:

I dunno. Your pic doesn't seem like he has much camber at all either. Too me, this looks worse. I could be wrong:

OP (buyer) is right, these are not as advertised. I'd have a SERIOUS problem with the seller too.
thanks!

Since you're both now viewing this thread, perhaps you can work out a solution - refund/return of wheels, working together to find someone who can use the wheels, etc.
all i want to do is work something out. i tried calling, texting and PMing but he never responded. the only time he has responded is on this thread. offer still stands for him to return my attempts to contact. i was trying not to go to the forums and itrader ratings so that we can keep this between us, but i had to do what i did! can you blame me?

In my opinion if you say something will fit and then are proven wrong you should man up and figure out a way to return them. It is wrong to just pass them off and say "sale is final".

Front is perfect, Rear u just need to add some camber and some 255 and you're set

these are aggressive, if u cant return them, Im sure alot of people who want and know how to fit them will buy them from u, probably for more than what u paid for, go figure.
