It will be close in back, fender roll should fix it IF there is a problem.

Stock suspension on 04 G35 with brembos...

19"x9.5J +35 offset front

19"x10.5J +22 offset rear

Best recommendation for tires? Will they rub if I lower with the offsets that I have?

I have a question that you true wheel gurus might know the answer to. Here goes.

I have a set of IForged VIP Fabulous wheels. I want to buy a set of Lowenhart wheels (with bigger lips) to put onto my IForged faces.

Will the IForged face(s) fit the Lowenhart barrel/lip? They are both 20" 40-bolt rolled lips.

Here are several pictures for reference. Please help! Thanks in advance!

Will these offsets fit an 03 sedan?

19x8.5 offset 21 225/35/19

19x9.5 offset 23 235/35/19

Can i count on rolling the fenders?

Someone replied, "you'll be rolling your fenders and running negative camber." Can i fix the negative camber issue fairly easily is the first question. Second, how bad is it going to be? Would you buy these sizes if you had this vehicle?

I think you'll be fine in the front maybe a slight roll, for rear you'll def need it cuz of the tire size. I used to have 275/30/19 in rear and rubbed crazy at -1. If u don't want to roll your fenders, I think your stuck at like +15 with that tire size.

Hey guys,

I lowered my 07 sedan on H&R springs yesterday and also put on my new wheels.
Specs are 20x9.5 +25 and 20x10.5 +33.

I put on 245/35/20 tires up front and tried putting on 275/30/20 out back but it was touching the fender (2nd gen sedans come with rolled fenders from the factory).

I dropped down to 255/30/20 out back but now the mid section of my exhaust is scraping whenever I go over a speedbump.

My camber is already at -3.30 out back and it's maxed out on the stock camber arms.

I'm thinking of adding a rubber finisher to the rear springs so that it raises the car out back by around 2cm (20mm) and then putting the 275's back on.

Any idea if this would solve my scraping problem? Would the 275's fit if I were to raise the car?

I need some info ASAP since it's scraping hard. Any other suggestions would be great.

Thanks

Why don't you try a 255/35/20 or even 245/35/20 (might be too much stretch for you)?

I can't cause the diameter of the tire will be too small which will cause in scraping.
My only option is to raise the overall height of the car by putting a bigger tire so i have a little more clearance.
I just want to make sure it would work, and I need to know if the 275/30/20 tire will clear the fender if I raise the back a bit by 20mm.

Front--- pull some camber with 25mm spacer. to play it safe do 20mm front
if you slam your ride, a fender pull will be needed.
Rear ---- deff. need a fender roll.

are you going with the strectch look? is that why you have a 265 tire.

AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH I'M A NEWB xD

I am a total newb at this. I am looking at some wheels that are 19X8.5 fronts and 19X9.5 in the rear both have a 35mm offset. I am also looking at doing a 1.5 inch drop all around. What size tire would you recommend and would i need spacers or anyhting else to make it work and look decent?

right... we're still waiting for verification - which is why posting info that hasn't been validated in the mean time probably isn't a good idea (I haven't recently post unverified info, you did)...

Now if there was a verifiable source that confirms what you said that's a different story...

Rays wheels say Rays on them, the 18"s don't.
