wheels w/o lips or very small ones. pics?
Too lazy to really search, but check out these two threads:
https://g35driver.com/forums/wheels-tires/188234-need-help-picking-up-lug-nuts.html (these are the wheels I have)
https://g35driver.com/forums/wheels-tires/198385-new-rim-out-need-your-opinion.html (pg. 3 has a pic of a different wheel, pg. 2 as well I think)

The ones in the picture aren't mine, but it's possible that it's the same set-up as mine. Mine are 19x9 +22, and 19x10 +25. IMO, they look great....I couldn't be happier with my wheel set-up.

G35 Coupe "Sport Package"
do you have center caps on yours? what color did you go with? how much do they weigh? any pics? where did you purchase and for how much if you don't mind.
The center caps have been on back order
I have them ordered and they said they think they'll be here this month (I ordered them back in September....they've taken much longer than it took for me to get the wheels). But here's a pic of what I ordered:

They weigh about 19 pounds each (very light weight). I have the dark gunmetal (DG coupe). I purchased them from a local company called Six Autoworks, so I didn't have to pay for shipping. I know gruppe-s can also get them, and I believe they still don't make you pay for shipping, so you should check with them on a price quote.

How did you like running that size? Would you have preferred staggered? I was going to run what you did, but then went a diff direction... I'm putting a deposit down today or this week... I just haven’t decided what to do yet

Did the rears tuck in with +40 front & rear?... also, I'm debating on 40 or 45 series... the 245/45 are closer to OEM... 255/40 are even closer but maybe too wide?

255-40 is not too wide, but may have a bit more of a "bulged" look. I like the more "stretched" look and lower tire profile. 245-40 is not "stretched", but has a nice low profile...not too low.
found this setup to be perfect. tried 18x9.5 +40, 275-35 in rear, but it was way too aggressive with the 350Z H-Techs. needed fender roll.
