I have more ground clearance, meaning the exhaust and y pipe doesn't scrap as much but it sound aweful when I hit bumps and dips. A arms banging against the body. I'm 3 from stiff on stance coils, will be going full stiff soon.

Quick question / opinion of what the fitted G35 community thinks about this subject.

How big of an offset difference should the front and rear wheels be in conjunction to one another?

For example: 18x9.5 -3 Front and 18x10.5 -20 in the rear

17mm total difference. Is that too big of an offset difference? And just by general rule of thumb, what is too big of a difference and what is acceptable? Just by looking at the specs in this thread, it seems that most run up to 8mm difference from each other, if not matching exactly. I know wheel width plays a difference in offset as well, but let's just assume the usual 9.5 and 10.5.

I'm not sure what most of us are running but for my setup my rears are 3mm more aggressive than my fronts. I wanted the wheels to be at about the same point F/R.

honestly no general rule of thumb per se but imo if the fronts are like -2 camber and the rears are like -8 then it just looks stupid

Agreed, I like to see camber in the same range as well F/R
