I have 2010 G37x sedan and I was running Forgestar F14s: 19 x 10 (38) on General Gmax 245/40/19 tires up front and 19 x 11 (44) on 275/35/19 Gmax tires in the rear. I was lowered on Eibach Pro Kit springs, running about -2 camber all around. They fit great, cleared fenders with room to spare.

I'm on BC coils now and I wanna get the super deep concave F14 in 19 x 10 (20) and 19 x 11 (31) with the same General Gmax and same sizes. The car is lower now, about 2" all around with about -2.5 camber all around.

Any advice on possible clearance issues? Will it be necessary to get some fender work (roll) or running more negative camber? Maybe having to run smaller tires, which I don't want to do for two reasons: already bought a new set and NYC roads.

Thank you all in advance.
Th front you should be ok a 245/35 is probably going to be better. You will be cutting close with that size tire and the +20.

The rear should be good, might need a degree or so to clear. Depending on how much space you actually have.

Thank you very much sir, just as I suspected. Oh well, here goes nothing, gonna place the order, trying to get a set of 19 x 10 (30) to see if it clears my Wilwoods up front.

I'll post when I have it figured out for future reference.

Looking at some wheels, 19x9.5 +22 19x11+25
I got a lowered sedan about 3inchs with camber kit upfront.
My fenders are pinched. What would be my best option for tires size? Thanks for your help!!

225/35 and 255/35 would be best, but you're going to need more camber out back. Probably pull about --4.5 degrees if the fenders aren't pulled.

Also the fronts won't be nearly as aggressive as the rears, you'll probably want a 15mm spacer up front.

This is my daily wanting to do 19 and as big as i can do fitment wise without making it anoying to daily the car. Could you lead me in the right direction?

Reason why i am coming to you is because every thread i click on you seem to be in it giving some good info.
19x10 19x11 0 offsets with 235/35 and 255/35 will be pretty damn aggressive without having to run tonnes of negative camber.

Is what you're looking for or are you wanting to go as wide as possible?

i took your advice from previous and went coilovers. i was looking at wheels at 18x9.5 or 18x8.5 offsets available are 35, and 20. for both the 9.5 and 8.5 width wheels.

i was thinking 18x9.5 +35 in front and 18x9.5 +20 in the rear. rears is rolled but not flat. front has no fender work. what do you think about that setup?

or should i go 18x8.5 +20 front and 18x9.5 +20 in rear? thanks for all of your help
Is this a coupe or sedan?

Exactly what I'm looking for. I don't want to have to run super amounts of neg camber. I drive 20 miles to work and 20 miles home. Know anyone have something for sale? Around there?

If you want to run like zero camber then go like 9.5 10.5 +0 and run those tires. The 10/11 stagger will require a little fender work.

I don't know whats around around right now. Check here and my350z pretty common specs for these cars.

I have the tools to do fender work and some camber. I just want it to be semi flush. Roads around my area are pretty bad.

The wheels I ordered for my sedan are 10.5 +30 and and 9.5 +22, my fenders are rolled flat. I want to run Nankang ns2 tires, I understand they run a bit smaller. That being said will I be ok running 255/35/19 in the back and 235/35/19 in the front? Or would I need more stretch?

I should mention I'm maxed out on bc racing coilovers, and I'm at -2 camber all around, I don't want to dial in anymore negative camber, thanks in advanced!

Then find some wheels and have at her. The specs I mentioned will be a breeze to fit.

You'll be cutting it real close. You're going to be better off with 225/35 and 245/35. You might need a slight pull to get those under the fenders.

Yea, Danny's the best. Always there to help me out. Since they do run a bit smaller should I go with a 40 series instead of 35?

Noo, the 40 sidewall will bump you up a full inch in OD.

They don't run THAT much smaller. Being your first crack at stretching, you probably won't even notice a difference, the stretch I mentioned is also nothing crazy.
