G37 Wheel specs

I'm planning to get the G37 but I want to get some wheels now. There's a group buy I want to get in. I'm hoping the specs will be the same for G37 as G35. I'm having a little doubt because the G37 is a little bigger...wider and longer to be more specific.
What do you guys think?

Man I would wait till it's released to make sure. It'd be a shame to get some custom wheels and have them be way tucked - or sticking way out.

^ +1, as much as you want them, and can get a better price from the group buy, you should wait a bit. But im sure theres somewhere you can find the exact wheels specs.

not to mention the offset might be a problem if the new wheels don't clear the brake calipers. Just a note, from what I read, the new G37 wheels will be 8.5 wide in the front and 9 wide in the back, so you can stuff a little more rubber on there than the current 19s the coupe has (8 front, 8.5 rear).

Chili and Shane are right...

But if this question is asked a few more times, we might come up with an answer.

Well, it's all moot now. I did a Benedict Arnold. Instead of waiting on the G37, I saw an ad for a sale at JMLexus. I picked up a GS350 for a killer price. I'll be turning in the G35 when the lease is up in July.
I'll miss posting here, I'll still visit but won't post much since I won't have a G35. I can't believe I did this, I'll miss the handling and power of the G35 but let's face it, it's not a supercar or anything. Plus, the seat was too darn narrow for my big butt (267 lbs). All in all, I still loved it but you can't beat Lexus quality at the price I scored. The GS has 300 hp and after I lower it and put some 20's on it, the handling will be much better.

So now I have two GS's in the family, one for my wife, now one for me.

See you guys around!
