19" G37S wheels on 03 G35 coupe?

will they fit? I am running 18" 5 spoke 350Z wheels and while they have served me well I am looking for a change. Wheels look like these and are avertised as:

Front:
Wheels: 19"x8.5". Cast aluminum. Made for Nissan/Infiniti by Enkei. Weight: 26.5 lbs. Bolt pattern 114.3 x 5 Offset +43
Tires: Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 225/45/19 92W. UTQG 140AA, weight 27 lbs., tread depth 10/32"

Rear:
Wheels: 19"x9". Cast aluminum. Made for Nissan/Infiniti byEnkei. Weight: 27.5 lbs. Bolt pattern 114.3 x 5. Offset +45
Tires: Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 245/40/19 94W. UTQG 140AA, weight 30 lbs., tread depth 10/32"

Thanks for responding. I never have liked spacers but sure do like the wheels. So no driveability, rubbing or steering issues with them and their backspacing as-is?

Thanks for those, I think it illustrates it very well. The 19"s seem to fill out the wheel wells better as well. Assume you are running the stock Potenza's? Did you have 18's previous? Any noteworthy changes in performance? Noise? Gas mileage?

I bought these and tried to put them on my 04 sedan. They would not go on all the way. The hub seems to be too big. Anybody have this problem? How did you fix it?

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
Then you did something wrong, they fit just fine. Also make sure you get the lug nuts that go with them, they are different than the first gens.

Mine were a little hard to put on at first, so I had to take a wire brush to my hub to clean off some rust. Also make sure the wheel's mounting surface is clean.

They look better with the spacer IMO.

Nice improvement over 18's
