Wheels to fit G35s w/ Bremo Brakes

I am proud new owner of an 03 G35. I'm wondering what size 19 or 20 inch rims I am suppose to get, because all the rims that I am looking it at, they said it will not fit because of the bremo brakes. Any help would be appreciated.

I know those looks really good, but I am looking for some wheels that are staggered and most of the ones I like at, it says it will not clear the bremo brakes.

Those BREMO brakes must be big is 19s and 20s arent clearing them, I gotta check them out

As far as the BREMBO brakes, I've seen people with wheels as small as 17s fitting but it all depends on the offset of the wheel

You can't just use a simple rule of thumb such as offsets to determine which wheels fit and which don't fit over the Brembos. Obviously the lower the offset the better the chance it will fit but it's not a guarantee.

18 inch with a 20 off set will probably fit as long as they dont have a small inner barrel. Usually lipped wheels and step lips have trouble clearing brembos.

It's not offset that affects whether or not it will clear your brakes.

It is the disc face of the wheels. Some wheel companies will offer either high, medium, or low disc when it comes to clearing brakes.

A better question would be, what wheels are you looking at?
