Will 19x8.5+32/19x9.5 +35 wheels Fit?

There is a set of wheels that are 19x8.5 +32 fronts and 19x9.5 + 35 rears that i wanted to know if they will fit my 2006 G35x without the wheels sticking out in the front or rear. Right now the car has a stock suspension, I intend on dropping in 1-2" next, but need some feedback on fit. Will i need spacers? If the 9.5 +35 rears will fit- what size tire can i run without it looking too small- i was thinking 245/40 or 255/40- I like the staggered look- and could really use some guidance on this. (the wheels are 5x114.3) please help!

pics? those are the wheels specs i have for my rims with a ~2" drop with a 235/35 in the front and a 255/35 in the rear and it looks almost perfect, if you can drop it a tiny bit more it will be almost perfect

this is before my springs fully settled

Since you have a G35x you'll need to make sure the diameter of your tires are very close in size so you don't throw off the AWD. You can go with 225/40 255/35. Depending on how low you go and what you camber is set at you'll need a spacer up front and maybe out back to make the tire flush with the fender.

I had wheels with those specs and they were sitting flush with a revised z drop -1" around with 245/35 and 265/35.. But you have an x so follow marcus' advice

Haha, I just have a lot of people's setups memorized for the most part, yours being one of them.

wow-

Wow, I didnt know the AWD was that sensitive- thank you everyone for the heads up and warnings!

You suggested a 225/40 and 255/35, do you think a 235/40 would work up front without throwing things off? I'm no tire expert but wouldnt a 225/40 be a bit narrow on an 8.5 rim? im temped to just go with 19x8.5's with a greater offset all the way around to avoid issues-

I have a 225/40 on a 9inch rim. You might be able to get away with 245/35 up front since the rear is just 6mm or .9% taller, but what I have heard from others you want the front to be alittle bigger. The 235/40 is way too big.

i had a 225 on the 8.5 front before and i didnt like it it was a bit to stretched in my opinion but hey i went with a 285 in the back later on so i may not be a good person to take tire advise from lol

here is how a 225 looks like on an 8.5

get a drop first and then you will see, it all depends on the camber you want to run and with those specs, a 2" drop and camber in spec you should be pretty flush
