The M45 wheels are 19x8.5 with 47 offset. My original offset is 43. Others who have run these wheels have used a minimum spacer of 10 mm, most have used 15mm. Does that sound right?

what's the best offset to run for 19x8.5/19x9.5. I don't wanna run spacers and I don't wanna roll my fenders. Thanks.

Does the brand of spacer matter? I bought M45 wheels for my G35 coupe. I'm thinking 20mm front 25mm back and have receieved different offers from people, but a few are selling spacers with no brand-name..should that be a turn off, does brand name really matter with something as simple as a spacer?

Thanks,
Bob Ruggiero

Just got new 20s for my 35 coupe, have tire questions

Ok all I searched through all the post to make sure I was not duplicating a question, but I have not found the answer i need. So my question is this; I have a set of Godspeed Omega 20s, 20x8.5 front, and 20x10 rear. My car is at factory height considering it came stock with 18s. What size tire for each set would be the best for my situtation? I would like to avoid lowering if I can, but if the results are bad I will drop it. My primary focus, is to avoid rubbing, so I need whatever setup seems to work best. What are your thoughts?

Question wheel fitment?

Ive tried to use all of my resources and online tools, but im still not positive if these wheels im trying to purchase will fit without rubbing or hitting. So if anyone can confirm they will fit that would be a huge help. I have a 05 G35 coupe and am looking to put 20s TSWs on it with the following specs.
20x8.5 +15 with 255.35.20 Falken FK452 (front)
20x10 +40 with 275.35.20 Falken FK452 (rear)

The selling is unsure and i dont want to pick them up and get them home and be SOL. Its a super deal. Dont want to pass em up. Thanks!!

Another Wheel Question:

TSW Thruxton, 19x8 +40 FRONT and 19x9.5 +35 REAR on a 2003 G35 Sedan without a drop. Will it fit? Any opinions about the looks of the wheels are appreciated as well.

Thanks for the response. So I take it you don't go too crazy for the looks for those wheels? The original plan was to do the drop first, but I found a great deal for wheels and tires.

I don't mind the Thruxton, wouldn't be my first choice. If I were to go big lip, 5 spoke style like the Thruxton, it would be the Axis Shine.

A deal is a deal so I say do it.

Cooldude; 245/40 and 275/35 (or if you wanna go a little smaller on the tires, knock a 5 off each sidewall.

Can someone help me out before I buy. These wheels are currently on a Z and he has to run -2.5degrees to get the front to clear. Would these be bad on a daily driven G?
Matte Black Volk GT30 Wheels
20x9.5 +10 20x10.5 +23


I have coilovers and camber kits so adjustability is there already.
