Question on new rims/tires

Planning to grab some new rims for my 05 g35.

Rim size: 19x8.5+33 | 19x9.5+35
Tire size: 245/35/19 | 275/35/19

Question now is I am planning to drop with 350z h-techs. I am assuming with such a mild drop there SHOULDN'T be any issues with rubbing, unless someone else can chime in. Or should I go 265/35/19 on the backs? I was even planning to run my stock rear rays 245/40/19 on the front to save on buying all new fours.

You probably will have to get a fender roll in the rear. Those are wider and larger offset then OEM, plus tire is meatier.

Damn... lol was hoping to avoid rolling if possible...

Maybe just stick with OEM rays and some spacers lol.

I suppose it's best to just try and see if I clear or not.

A roll is $50 per axle.

Thanks. My other question was is there a general rule for staggered setups? Looking around some of the wheels I want only have 19x8 fronts and jumps all the way to 19x9.5 for the rear

so it'll be 19x8 Front and 19x9.5 rear. Not sure if there is a general rule about how far apart they are allowed.

Thanks!
