I been debating a long time about this:

Im looking to get a set of Vossen CV3's the specs are 20x10.5 with 25 offset?

Can i run 10.5 all the way around? Will it rub.. The last set of rims i got looked like spare tires due to them being so small so i want to do this like a BOSS!!!!

Someone is selling these wheels with the following sizes:

20x9.5 30mm F
20x10.5 30mm R

Would they look alright on my g35 coupe? I have coilovers.

I'm planning on lowering my 04 G35 couple with Megan Racing coilovers. From the Megan Racing website, it says that the kit comes with camber plates integrated into the upper pillow ball mounts to tune and adjust the camber. Is this feature enough to not have to get a front/rear camber kit to get my camber to spec if I were to drop 2-2.5"? I have found that I would need a rear camber kit and toe bolts at the least, but didn't realize the megans had the adjustable plates. Are the kits still necessary with megan racing coils? If not, what is the max drop I can get, but still get away with without a camber kit?
If camber kits are necessary, will a front kit really help with the inner tire wear or can I get away without the front set? Is there anything that can help with the getting the front toe to 0? Can you recommend an affordable set(s)?

You would not need to do anything to make those fit but 18's are tiny and offsets are horrible for a coupe

You would not rub at all with those offsets and addiding spacers, depending on how big would be the reason you would rub

Pretty sure you would need a 10mm spacer in the front to fit them with brembos

With those offsets you'll probably wanna go with at least a 15-20 mm spacer all around to make it look decent
