Question about Tire Sizes

I own a 2004 g35 coupe and I'm putting 19 inch rims with 10.5 inch width in the back. I was wondering what the best size tire would be? I'm looking to put the biggest size tires without rolling in the fenders. I have factory suspension as well. Please help.

Are you N/A? Need to know the offset of the wheel too.

285/30 is about as wide as I would go. 295 should fit depending on offset but 295s are NOT cheap tires.

I'm sorry idk what N/A means. Offset is 5/120. Do you think with 285/35 the tire will rub the fender with factory suspension?

N/A = naturally aspirated, meaning you don't have a turbo or supercharger. A good tire thats 285/295 is probably overkill for someone pushing close to stock power. As mentioned above, the wider you go the more expensive tires get.

Uhh, think you might be mixed up, that number I'm going to guess and say is actually the bolt pattern which means these wheels won't bolt onto the G.

The offset is measured in MMs IE +25

I can't tell you if the 285/35 will rub unless I know widths and offset of the wheels.

With 30 offset. In front 255/35/19 on 9.5"-with 25offset
No rub whatsoever. I have pics in my album hope. That helps
