So my questions are before I send these off to be drilled for our bolt pattern will these work with brembos AND what tire size should I run with these? Thank you very much for and help you guys give me. Please pm me or reply here!!
I don't know if they will clear your OEM brembos or not, the extent of my wheel knowledge does not extend that far. But if they don't, with +20 offsets all around, you could easily still run a 10mm spacer or larger in order to clear your brembos... but again, I'm not a brake guru in that sense so I'm not too sure. Just tossing ideas your way.

However, for the widths, what I would run would be a 225/30 in the front and a 245/30 in the rear. Depending on how low you're going to lower, you'll need a rear fender roll in order to clear.

Thinking 235/35 and 255/35
These are good sizes. For me tho, I'd probably put a 225/35 in the front instead of a 235/35. You could probably get away with a 245/35 in the rear if you want more of a stretch.

You need to roll the rear fenders

The front might need a slight pull but since our OEM front fenders are already rolled I don't think you need to

Depending on what size of tire and how low your drop is, you might rub on the front bumper fender mount when your suspension goes up while you drive. To correct this issue, you either need to take a hammer and make the metal bracket flat or shave it down smooth completely. Or negative camber works too.

Front bumper fender mount?? Is that in the inner fender well? Well I'm in the process of getting everything together. As far as low goes, the car will be on function and form type 2s, and spl camber arms front and rear. Fenders are stock still, and I don't mind having to roll them or maybe a slight pull, but I didn't want to have to a crazy pull and flare. And ya I prollY be going with a nice stretch on the tires. Thanks for all your input guys.

Alright I’m in the process of buying Bags for my 2006 M45. Since I’m running air I’m sure I have some more play room. Can someone point me in the right direction on what specs to get for my rims.

I plan to buy staggered 20’s with max lips, stretched tires maybe 9.5 front 10.5 rear.
I plan to buy the G37 BBK in the near future so I’m assuming I will have to go with O disk in the rear and R disk in the front. I will be pulling my rear fenders a bit. M45 fenders are already rolled.

So what should I go with?
Offsets:
Disk:
tire size:

Your help is greatly appreciated .

When I say front fender mount, I mean where your front bumper is mounted to the top of your fender on the inside, behind the lining. If you pull the lining back slightly, you will a bolt that sticks straight up that holds your bumper in. The mounting portion I'm talking about is this little metal bracket that kind of sticks out a bit past the fender liner.

^ you can fit what ever you want on them, you will need to run spacers as well.

Wouldn't spacers push them out past fenders?

Not once you lower it, you'll be slightly sunken even at stock height.
