Question about G35 coupe 17" on a sedan

I'm thinking about picking up a set of the G35 coupe 17" wheels for my sedan for track use and/or if i do not feel like rolling on the 19's. Will they fit with no problems or are the factory offsets too low for the 04' sedan???? Any info on this would be great as i am looking to pick up a set shortly. Thanks in advance

They will fit just fine. I have the coupe 18's on my sedan. The only problem you may run into is with the width of the tires. Depending on your drop and camber and whether you have the fenders rolled.

you should be fine. if you are dropped, you may have some rubbing on the rears with a fatter tire. It'll be the same as if you has coupe 19's I would imagine

they were a custom one-off job from AutoExplosion. I need to take the car back so they can make the skirt shorter since it's too low, but other than that, i like em.
