Varrstoen ES 2.2.2 +0 on DG coupe

Hey guys.. I've been a member for a while now but I've just been a lurker. I used to own a 350Z but made the switch to a G35 about a year ago. I like the G a lot better... anyways, I just got some new wheels this week and thought I would share a few pictures. They were taken with my phone so they're not the best.

I went with the Varrstoen ES 2.2.2's
Front: 19x9.5 +0; 245/35/19
Rear: 19x10.5 +0; 275/30/19

I'm thinking about switching to 235/35's up front soon. I had to get my fenders rolled to make this work, but well worth it! I'm running with Tein drop springs.

Nice car and house too Varrstoen's are awesome and they pretty much look good on every colour. I assume you are dropped on S-techs, since it looks pretty low, I'm curious if you scrape a lot on those?

Is your tire set up the correct and recommended tire size to mount for that wheel? I bought the same wheel with tire package, just different offsets. Let me know on the tire size or if anyone got any input on the tire size package I got for my wheels

Varrstoen ES 2.2.2 +12

FRONT 19x9.5 +12 255/35/19
REAR 19x10.5 +12 295/30/19

Thanks man.. ya it's dropped on the S-Techs and the car scrapes a lot! There are certain stores I won't go to just because of their speed bumps in the parking lot.. some of them things are like curbs. I like the looks of being really low thou. Thanks for the feedback on the car and house!

Eh, it's more of a preference thing.. I'd go with a different tire setup if I were you, those might be too "beefy".. but like I said, to each their own.
Is your car lowered at all? What about a more common setup for those wheel sizes?
F: 245/35/19 R: 275/35/19

Yeah the car is about .5" lower than your S-Tech. So the recommended tire size for me is F: 245/35/19 R: 275/35/19? I guess I should contact the seller that sold me the wheel and tire package because that's what they mounted on. Thanks

If you're lower than mine.. you might want to stretch them more than that or go to a 30 series. Search around for pics with similar specs and see what tire size might work best for your situation.

^^thats what i was thinking! looks more like the kind of drop you get on the tanabe df210s or coilovers..that front is about tucking tire!

looks amazing though!! hows the clearance on that rear with such a big tire??
