But they'll fit great, just need tor roll the rear fenders.
Yup
g37 convertible with sports suspension & OEM 19" wheels (8.5" F off set 43 and 9" R off set 30) with 225/45 and 245/40 tires.
I recently have been looking into anniversary OEM 19" wheels but the problem is these only come in 30 offset for all 4. The two for rear will be fine but the question is for the front wheels/tires:
What's my best option:
1)use same tire 225/45 with 19x9x30 offset wheels
2) use same as rear size tires 245/40 with 18x9x30 offset wheels.
3) Get correct offset and wheel size (19x8.5x43 offset),
Please respond with your educated suggestions.
Thanks

Do any of you guys know if a 285/35 tire (Goodyear Eagle F1's) will clear the rear fender running a 19x10.5 +12 offset?
Im currently running 285/35's on my +22 but i bend a rim and was thinking of just replacing both with the +12 version. My fenders are shaved so i wont need to roll them but im still not sure if i'll need to have the fenders pulled out a little... any thoughts?

I think they look pretty solid.
Since you shaved them I have no idea what you shaved off.
You'd be fine if you had done a legit roll.

also what tire brand and sizes to go with? (a lot of rain in Van btw)
I got an 04 coupe on stock body and stock 18's, dropped on megan street coils roughly 2.5" all around I think? I didn't get to measure what it was originaly so I'm not too sure. No camber kit installed so its natural camber around -2.6 or so maybe even -2.8? I don't really remember or have an alignment sheet from the last time I got coils installed.
I do have SPC camber kit for front and back incase I need.
Fenders aren't rolled yet but will probably do that when I get the rims and tires.
My side skirts are 3.5" from the ground and front probably 3.75"
Your help is appreciated!
Thanks!
Kevin.

Ok, this is a pretty solid set up and can be done pretty easily.
You will need to roll those fenders asap to get into this though. You'll want a little more camber aiming for around -4 or -5
As for tires, I usually suggest nankangs but given Vancity's wet weather I'm going to suggest against them if you do a lot of highway driving and the car is your daily.
Toyos T1s would probably be your best bet as they have wicked wet grip and stretch very well. Achilles are another option on the cheap side but not quite as nice as Toyos.
As for sizes, really depends, you would reduce camber by a degree with 225/35 and 245/35 or could go a little more cambered but less aggressive stretch (what I would do personally) and run 235/35 and 255/35
You'll probably end up going a little lower once you get the wheels!
Think I covered it all right?

From what i understand the coupes have wider fenders right? Meaning if you cleared the 275's on your sedan i should be able to clear the 285's on my coupe? I didnt roll my fenders cuz i dont like the seam it leaves on the fender so i shaved mine down with an air tool and burnishing belts, i'm hoping it'll be enough

And rolling doesn't leave a seam what so ever.
Then you should be fine to fit the +12 (aside from them going to rust because you've broken the seam sealer)

I actually rattle canned the inside because i know it'll rust otherwise and maybe the guy who rolled your fenders didnt leave a seam but on my old honda, my buddy's Z and my cousins G they all have this little line that rises about a 1/4 above the bottom of the fender.. It's the part that is rolled over, im assuming it comes from the roller squeezing the two pieces of sheet metal together.. but also aside from that i got into an accident years ago and i'm pretty sure i have some bondo work on my rear quarter panel that will crack if i roll or pull it which is why i didnt go that route.
thanks for the info tho, imma go ahead and purchase the new wheels and see if they'll clear with my 285's if not i'll go with something not as beefy
