no wider than 245, but those are horrible widths if you have a coupe

You can go a lot wider. ~9-9.5 in the front and 10.5 in the rear.

The OEM g35 coupe 19" wheels are 8.5" wide in the rear, you would essentially be "downgrading" by purchasing these wheels that are narrower than stock. Horrible idea IMO
