btw...i could also get 20" TSW Catalunya with Nitto 555's from a member on my350z for around the same price...is there more/less hassle with installing these compared to m45 rims..im really a noob at the whole wheel thing (pathetic i know) so i dont know much about offsets and rubbing and stuff like that...i just recently came into some money and wanted some rims...thanks for all the help and opinions in advance!

not sure what the tsw's are but the m45 rims look AWESOME!
not as much "look at me" factor as with a polished lip rim, but who cares?!
do a search and you'll find a few people with them.
imho 20's are too big for the coupe anyways-disproportionate

You are going to need big spacers to run the M sport wheels. They are 19x8 +50. IMO, to get decent fitment on the coupe, you would need <+20 offset on 8" wide wheels. You can get by with 25mm spacers and fitment should be close to coupe 19's.
Info should be verified with a coupe member to be sure though.

They will fit... but they will be sunken in. My suggestion on the spacers is to bring the wheels outwards toward the fender to look decent. My sedan would need spacers to make the M sport wheels fit nicely... so you would need even more on the coupe. The M wheels look great, and will fit , but it will not look right.
