help on wheels?

Hi guys,
I'm ordering a 19x9 (F) and 19x10 (R) wheels with a 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 tires. Btw, it's for my g35 sedan. Do you guys think it fits my car perfectly or do I need to roll the fender?

Thanx in advance guys.

Re: help on wheels?

Well i have the same exact setup as you, except i am running 19x9.5 with 275/30-19" tires and im dropped with springs..... I didnt need to modify anything at all, it isnt rubbing even with 4 people in the car either, its close but not rubbing still and no fitment issues or anything! I think you could get away with it or you might need very minor modification to it, whats the offset? That could also determine wether or not it will rub, mines a +38! Martin

8.5 front and 9.5 rear is about as wide as you're going to be able to run on the sedan...there's just not the clearance up front for wider... regardless, when going staggered, you are going to need to go with around a +40 offset front and rear to be able to clear the fender/suspension pieces...

If you wanted to go with wider wheels, you should have bought the coupe...

Bza's right, but for a 10" wide wheel, you could just roll the fender in the rear if its rubbing, theres always that chance it will go on without a problem, try it out!

Re: help on wheels?

i agree with most of these guys. 8.5 and 9.5 seem the way to go. I although think that you can run different offsets for front and rear. Someone said you ahve to run 40s all the way around but i dont think so. I am running +35F and +45 rear. i seem to be doing fine!!

Also my rims are up for sale if you are interested in them:

I personaly wouldnt go wider then 19x8.5 (front) and 19x9.5 (rear), unless you dont mind rolling your fenders..
