G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
you don't need spacers the size you mentioned for those offsets unless you want the wheels sticking out. IMO the car looks perfect as is. 5mm spacer would be the max I would go, but you don't even need that. stick with what you have and go with a 255-35, 285-35 setup. a 265-35 in the rear will be too small of an aspect ratio and will not look good.

I hear ya. The 275's look perfect on the wheel, so I figure the 265 would give me a little room to play with as far as a spacer is concerned. Looking at it up close, there is a whole lot of room to play with in the front and rear, and I was looking to get a little bit of poke to get a more aggressive stance.

I should have it all together by the end of the week, so I'll update the thread on what happens and if it fits/looks good or bad.

I run a 19x9.5 +19, 245-35 and 19x10.5 +19, 275-35. here are some pics to give you an idea. if I were you I would not do more than a 5mm spacer.

Those are almost my exact specifications, except I'm running +20 F and +23 R offsets, I ordered 15mm spacers front and rear, and will see how this turns out. I know it will fit, people run x11's in the rear with close to zero offsets, just a matter of where I set the camber and how the fenders are rolled/pulled.

I put the 15mm spacers and 265/35's on the rear and the car looks 1000x's better. I didn't put them on the front, I'll probably go with 7-10mm since the offset in the front was lower to begin with. The tires are hardly stretched at all, doesn't rub whatsoever (with rolled fenders)

Offsets really aren't too bad at all. 10mm in the front/rear should do it.

I think I could've done 20mm in the rear, but the front needs to be less than 10. I'm gonna get a pic up after the front lip/splitter is installed.

That's with the 15mm in the rear (bringing it to +8) on 265/35's, still at +20 in the front (needs a 5-10mm spacer) The M behind my G35 is running 17x10" in the rear on +5 I believe.
