Need help to figure out if these wheels with fit on stock 03 g35
I have an 03 g35 that came stock with 18x8 with 225 45 on front and 245 45 on the back. I believe it has 30mm off set if I'm correct from factory. So I was looking at these rims I can get a deal on and they are 114.3 so same lug pattern but the rims are 18x9 with a 35mm offset. I know that I should have no problem in the back of the car to fit them but what about the front wheel? will the wheels work with the 1in wider and 5mm more of and offset? If so what tire size could I run in the front and back with my stock suspension?

Your new wheels should fit fine. The offset change will make room for the bigger rim diameter.

I'm not a coupe expert (assuming you have a coupe) but they should sit fine. I don't think they would even be flush with the fender even with a 9" width. Tire sizes would be your choice, do you want a meaty tire or a little stretch? Wide tires or not so wide? Roll fenders or not? Still lots for you to consider, even things like do you plan on lowering the car in the future and such. A lot of newcomers don't realize the amount of info you need to process to swap out rims.
A 9.5" wide front with a +15 ish offset, and an 11" wide rear with +12 ish offset will be flush for a Coupe.

Looks are a matter of opinion, if you like it then that's all that matters. If you want them to be flush, I can tell you the fronts will need ~15mm spacer and the rears will need a good 25mm.
It will be very close to being flush yes. And if you're stock height you wont need to roll.
You need a slightly taller tire to keep the VDC (traction control) in check. So those sizes will be just dandy. This is a Coupe correct?
Yes it is a coupe . So i need to get the 18x9 with 24mm offset and the 225 45 front and 255 45 in the back with 15mm spacer on front and 25mm on back? And all that will work on the stock coupe? Cause im about to order all this stuff.
Yeah man, go for it. I don't wanna be responsible for it tho lol, if you know what I mean. But that will be a nice fitting setup for your car.
