that's right! i forget you run 245s all 'round.
are the 10s H+R DRS spacers? if you are planning to get rid of them, lemme know, as i have a use for them

^Thanks Dexter. I actually ended up with the 10mm in the rear cause I didn't want to have to mess with my camber settings yet. So effective +23 offset. I have to wait on getting a new tire size to add 10mm+ spacer up front because I already barely rub with the 245/40 at my ride height.
Lol i just got a set of volks in irvine. As i type this i am on my way back to nor cal right now so i can drive the g down tonight and trade rims with the guy tomorrow...so much driving

Amazing how much of a difference a 10mm spacer can make. I've been running Rays Formula Nuts with my OEM Coupe 18s for a few weeks, no problems so far. OEM lug nuts are tapered, just like aftermarket.
Got extended studs and 10mm spacers on the fronts last night. Thanks again to SouthBayGSedan, OH6 G35, zackt69, bigc, dahkyne, and Gdup35Sedan for all their help with this!
I need to change my tire size up front cause I'm rubbing up front (just as I thought I would). Running 245/40/19, going to 245/35/19 should solve this problem.

i see the studs worked out... it should have been an easy install.
i think if you run the 225/40 up front, it won't rub. 245/35 may not look right IMO and is too wide for an 8" rim width.

^Yup they worked out, thanks again Dex. I'll probably move the 245s to the rear when my rears wear out later this year and go with a different size up front, thanks for the suggestion on the tire size.
I tried to put a 5mm on my fronts without installing extended studs and I couldn't get enough turns (8+ turns) of the lug to feel comfortable running them.
