Your answer in in your question, It's because(well my honest guess) 2pc wheels are alot easier to make as for offering custom offsets because it's only a 2pc, 3 pc wheels would take londer to make since they need to get 3 pieces made. And imagine how long it would take to get a custom set of 3pc? While everyone else is as well...everyone is gonna have different offsets desired. It would just take way to long and would be alot of work just to keep that organized, and add that along to all the other wheels they are selling.

Alright guys, I currently have the G37 19" coupe wheels mounted on my 08 sedan lowered on eibach pro-kits, with camber set to about -1.1 to -1.3 degrees all around. The wheel specs for the coupe wheels are 19x8.5 F +43 with 225/45 tires and 19x9 R +45 with 245/40 tires. My stock sport wheels were 18x7.5 F +45 with 225/50 tires and 18x8.5 R +50 with 245/45 tires. I measured between the tire and fender to see what spacer i can install, but couldnt get an accurate measurement. I was hoping to install 20mm rear spacers and 15mm front spacers, is this doable? or is this not possible? Thanks in advance!!

Correct me if I'm wrong, experts...

You can fit +15mm in the front and rear. Just make sure to roll your rear fenders.

You're gonna have to roll the rears if you want a flush look, but yeah about 15's all around would suffice!

What is the largest size tire you can fit on the stock 18's 7 spokes? As in, what is the widest....also, what size spacers would you recommend on the stock 18's?

Ok I'm kinda new at this but i just purchased a set of Venaci V124 20x9.5+20x10.5. I am on stock suspension but was thinking about getting tein s techs to lower the G on. Will i need to roll my fenders? And plus i want an aggressive look so would i be better off putting spacer all around and I'm not sure about what size, any suggestions? Or a Camber kit?

Thanks
