would have been better w/ 20s, a lot wider and a more aggressive offset

love the gt-s. 19s on the g37s are like 18s on the g35 though.

Maybe its me, but 5 spokes doesn't look that great on a g37 and I love the GT-S too. Mesh or 7 spokes should do it.

Looks OK, should've gone with an aggressive offset at least.

I think if you're going to buy aftermarket wheels for the current generation G's, they have to be 20".

thats what everyone told me but with spacers and mad camber you can make any wheels fit. i have large big brake kit and i managed to fit large wheels with huge lips. just depends on how much camber you want to run.

I could have run a little more agressive offsets, but as it is I'm rubbing because I'm so low.

Here are some pics I stole from IP37 on myG37, these wheels are around +20 and +25 offset, and they were from a G35. These should show you how much different the fitment on the G37 is. He didnt even drive with these wheels he just tried them on his car.

that is because your buddy is at 4x4 height and almost positive camber LOL. I guarantee those wheels can be made to not rub because of the suspension design

^they are nolans dpe's that they tried out when ip first got his g37.

different strokes for different folks. not everyone wants to have to deal with negative camber for an aggressive fit.
