Throwing out all my old ideas for wheels. Im NOW looking for classy/ aggresive. BOLD spoke design with concave. That naturally the leads me to....Vossen.

runs behind couch
(O_O)
^^ ^^....help me fit them...runs away again.


Honestly though I really do like them. Stance SC-5, Vossen CV3 and BC Forged TA01. I like the staggered look but, I lose some concave with a smaller width wheel right? Im looking at 19x10 +20 all round. I'll run spacers to make them flush.
OB Coupe
Lowered on coils 2"
Rear fenders rolled almost flat

You want classy and bold? Nothing says cookie cutter better than vossen CV3s/SC5 whatever.

Those will fit, but you can go more aggressive, so why not do that?

What other options do you have for specs?

Yeah I would love to go more aggressive. I simply threw those specs up because that's what was readily available from the vendors here on Driver.

Then I suggest going more aggressive. 19x10 +20 are sedan specs more so than a coupe in today's world.

Alright I can do that. I'll start here with one of our vendors and see what they can do. If not I could always try contacting Vossen directly. Im not sure what other offsets they have availble. Their website listed sizes and width. Only approved vendors have listed offsets.

What tire sizes would you guys suggest for 20x9 +35 front and 20x10.5 + 40 rear? I'm buying used and the current tires on them are 225/30-20 F and 295/25-20 R. The car (2006 G35 Coupe) isn't lowered yet....Any suggestions?

jeez those tires are a bit ridiculous and not necessary at all run a 245/35 275/35 or 245/30 275/35 setup with those specs
