will 9.5 inch wide rim fit up front?

wanted to run a 9.5inch rim up front, was curious what the ideal offset would be to clear all the crap up there...

yes a 9.5 up front is pretty common... what kind of look are you going for? do you want an aggresive look or a tucked in look?

9.5 will work. What are you looking to do in the rear?

Go 9.5 +22 up front and 10.5 +22 in the back for a nice flush look and no scraping issues, unless you are slammed. I have 350Z H-Techs and no problems.

ive never looked into 22's so im not sure how fitment is .. what aslong as you stay above +20 offset you should be fine... it'll all come down to the tire size you use. i ran +19 rear and +17 front but mine were 19's and i had no rubbing issues.

Ey post up some pics of the headlight/fog light setup you have. I've got 8500 replacement bulbs.. and I'm going with an HID kit 8500 for fog lights.

Holy crap, 22s on the G? How are the roads in your area since you'll be riding on rubber bands. I'd like to see pics of 21"+ rims on the G. They must look ridiculous.

don't do it. i don't think it will fit. the height of the wheel will cause the inners of the wheels to rub, and the outside part of the wheel may stick out Westcoast Customs style. please think about 22's first. big wheels are hott, but only when the shape/size of the vehicle will accomodate it. in the G's case, No effin way. 20's max. you can run a 20 x 10 up front.
