Offset and tires question
what size are you gonna run?? i assume 20"?
If they are 20s, they will not rub if you don't lower it, I know someone with 20x8 with a +30mm offset on his new TL and it doesn't rub, and TL's oem offset is just a tad higher than our G's...
but I would get at least a +35mm offset and 20x8.5 with 245/35/20...good luck

i had coupe 18's with a 245/40 on the rear and they didnt rub at all. The 245/45's rubbed with 2 people in the back. I was lowered an inch on Z springs.

20x8.5 ~+40 Front and
20x9.5 ~+45 Rear is a great combo.
You can go lower offset and wider but you may need to roll your fenders. I have 20x10 +40 on my rears with rolled fenders and they clear but you could not go 1mm lower offset.

Yeah 35-38 on the front should be good too but it depends on your drop. I rub with +40 on the front when I have my wheels turned and hit a bump. But I also have a 1.3" front drop.
Why do I bother to DIY???

I have 20x8.5, +38, 245/35 all around....and don't rub on the front. I'm only lowered 1" on the front and 3/4" in the back though...
So, for me, a +38 worked great.

QUick QUestion - 18 vs 19 - anyone experinced both and can speak to issues with road noise? I drove a coupe with 19" and the road noise was worse than any exhaust drone could ever be -
Gdup35 - any issues with your set-up??
