Sadly, I have seen WORKs with shotty offsets on a G as well. What I mean by that is that the wheel is tucked WAY in under the fender a la OEM - offset is too conservative, very rarely will you see rims that stick out on a G.

Anyway, Chico's numbers sound way aggressive, never heard of a front offset that's between 15 and 20mm, but 20X8.5 +35 and 20X10 +40 doesn't sound right either. I don't know how you guys are getting the lower offset up front In any event, if your offsets are between 35 and 40mm, be prepared for an OEM-like stance, which is horrific IMO. If I were you, I'd call back and try to chance the order, but it seems like it's off the shelf stuff.

offset, from my understanding, is different from wheel to wheel. it has a lot to do with design and face shape. i spoke to someone at the phone # at NADwheels directly, and he assured me i would be just fine. the tracking for the wheels show that i should be getting the wheels by this Thursday. I'll def post pics.

I do have some bad news thought. My car got broken into a couple hours ago. Read all about it here: https://g35driver.com/forums/showthr...42#post1240242

My Front offset is +11 on a 19x9.5 and +18 on 19x11
