G37 Wheel fitment on 03.5 sedan

Hey guys, I'm going to buy some 19" G37 rims for my 03.5 G35 sedan, they come with Bridgestone Potenza RE050A. The sizes are 225/45R/19 Front and 245/40R/19 Rear. Will I have to adjust anything on my car for these to fit right? I really dont know anything about modding so any info would help. I currently just have the stock 17"s on. I am getting the wheels with those tires for $2000cdn which is about $1650usd is this a good deal? Im really not sure what oem wheels are worth so... Thanks guys

If the wheels/tires were taken off a brand new car, $1650 isn't a bad price. If the tires are worn or the wheels damaged in any way, the price is too high.

I have seen these go for ~$1200 quite a few times.

Yes, they will fit.

I seen them go latley for even $1k, these will fit perfectly fine, only problem you have a small chance to run into is one of the rear wheels rubbing, because of the offsets, but thats easily cured with a fender roll...

how long do you think they would last me if they are 75% worn? another 2 years? I will only be using them in the warm months obviously since im in canada so like april until october. When do most people replace their tires? like 50% or less???

depends on how you drive

most tires for me last me 10-12k miles, i replace them when they look like slicks, so 0%

just be carefull while driving on tires that are that worn down
