What does everyone think of these fitments for my new rims and tires combo?
Heres what I went with, I wonder how the fitment will be.
Rims
Konig Lace 16MB
20x8.5 +25 front
20x10 +30 rear
Tires
Toyo Proxes 4
225/35/20 front
255/35/20 Rear
Those offsets and wheel sizes seem right?

Whatever you install on your G35 should be an "Upgrade" my tires cost more than your wheel/tire package. Your OE wheels are light weight for a reason, replacing them with heavy 20" rims isn't a good option and the tire quality with packages is generally terrible....as you'll discover!

So again this thread was started to check the fitments I picked, not to compare how much money I spent to others.
Have you ever even had Toyo Proxes? Their good tires for the money, plus I got a good deal.
I did consider the weight being an issue, its a total of 28lbs added TOTAL, which is not much. These are not performance rims so I am not looking to track the car or race it with these rims. Again I just wanted to find out if the offsets, wheel sizes, and tire sizes were a good choice.
And it wasnt really a wheel and tire package. I purchased the rims through a local shop, then I picked out the tires and he gave me a good deal on them plus installation. So hopefully it wont be TERRIBLE.
Thanks

Well thats great but I dont have as much money to spend on my car right now as you. I have a daughter and family that come before my car, and this wheel and tire package was in my budget. Obviously if I had more money to spend I would have got Racing Harts and wrapped everything in Michelin, but I couldnt afford it.
To answer your offset question. They'll still be sunk a little. If you want to push them out at all, put 10mm spacers all around.

Not attacking, but I will say this - if your family (including their safety) comes before your car, you shouldn't put 1 piece cast wheels on there that will shatter after 1 hard hit in a pothole, or develop hairline cracks and destroy the integrity of the wheel in a matter of no time. Thought I should put the fact of safety out there of cast wheels.

I think I will probably only use these rims on the weekend and for events, and keep my stock wheels on for daily driving.
This is my first set, so im going to save up some more money and get some works, racing harts, stance or forged 360s in the next few months.
Thanks for your input on the offset! Damn I was hoping I wouldn't need spacers, but I guess thats what I get for not getting customized wheels.
