Crazy size would it fit my car?

I have a G35 sedan lowered with Tein Stechs, I'm looking at a set of staggared & different size wheels (19's front 20's rear) the fronts are 9"wide but the rears are 10" wide with a tire size of 255/35R20 I don't know the offset as of yet. My question is would they fit on the sedan lowered without rubbing? The widest I've seen on here is 9.5". I need to know soon in fear of losing the sale.

Thanks in advance for your help guys

if you're already running a wheel that wide, then it will more than likely rub. s-techs are a relatively aggressive drop, and with low offsets you're going to rub for sure. just roll your fenders!

The coupes have a wider track in the rear than on the front and so they can accommodate the staggered wheel fitment. The sedans are the same track front and rear. Personally I would not go staggered on the sedan. If you want an aggressive fitment like 9" width, you will have to roll the rear fenders for sure. I think you should stick with 8.5" width wheel for front and back. And you will need an offset of about +40 to +45 without rubbing and rolling fenders with lowering springs. 19" X 8.5" +40~45 for front and rear would be perfect for you. I really don't think 10" will fit on the sedans. The 9.5"/10.5" fitments are only for the coupes. If the wheels won't fit, I wouldn't push the sale thru.

There is nothing wrong with staggered on a sedan unless its an X. There have been multiple people running staggered on their sedans, including myself. You just have to have the right offsets. For the OP, i doubt they'll fit. For the front, you'd have to have atleast a +30 offset up front for the 9" wheel to fit.
The rear would fit fine as long as the offset is +40-+50, you'll have to roll your fenders though. And that 255 on the rear is going to be quite stretched.

I have 19x8.5 +35 and 19x9.5 +45 lowered 1.7/1.3 on tein basics and have no rubbing issues, with or without the fenders rolled.

Sedan
You won't fit a 9" wide wheel in the front without rubbing. Stick with 8.5" in the front. 10" in the rear is possible with an offset in the +50's.
