Would the G37 oem 19" rims fit on a 05 g35x?
What if i lower my car in the future, would the tires rub?
People are telling me it is staggered. Are they? if so, in which ways are they staggered?
If they are staggered, pulling the AWD fuse would that work? have read mix reviews on this.
thanks guys.

You've been here long enough to know you should search for your answer before posting the umpteenth thread on this. You didn't specify if you were looking at Coupe or Sedan wheels, but yes, they will fit. Yes, you can run staggered wheels on your AWD, you just can't run different diameter tires. No, it shouldn't rub any more than any other stock wheel and tire combination. The outside diameter of your wheel/tire doesn't change if you get a larger wheel.

Ive been looking around for the answer and couldnt find the answer.
People are saying the coupe 19" g37 rims are staggered. Are the rims all the same size?
Ive found a great deal on a sligthly used 19" g37 rims.

^ the rims are 19x8.5 front 225/45/19 and 19x9 in the rear with 245/45/19 tires. If you get 245/40/19 tires all around you should not have a problem.

Thanks. Just the answer i was looking for. Would you know the offset of the wheels?

All the tires must be the same size on a AWD car? Can I just keep it different and just pull the AWD fuse out? Do you know if this would really work and not mess up my drivetran, and etc...

To keep the AWD happy, the tires don't have to be the same size, but they do have to have the same outside diameter. I was considering a "staggered" setup for my Coupe 18x8's of 225/45 F and 255/40 R. Different widths, almost identical diameters. AWD would have been fine with it. But I went with 245/45's all around so I could rotate them. You won't have that option no matter what you run because your wheels are also staggered.

Or you can unplug the AWD fuse and run whatever you want, but I wasn't happy with the performance of my car when I ran it like that. It's much happier now that I have it plugged back in.

EDIT: With the 19's you have, you could run 235/40F and 265/35R. Both are very close to stock diameter (26.4"F, 26.3"R)

got a question about the diameter. If the oem 19" g37 coupe rims are the same size but different in width(19x8.5 F, 19x9 R). Wouldnt it be the same diameter? why would i have to get the larger profile in the front than the rear?

Anybody got the OEM size of the tires for the 19" coupe g37 rims?
