What offset and specs for a widebody G

Okay, so I just ordered a widebody kit for my G35 and installed it. I currently am running 18x8.5 Konig Unknown's with 25mm spacers and the gap is ridiculous. I am curious if anyone is running widebody what the specs they are running to get a flush look.

Additionally, I really like the Varrstoen Es2 18x10.5 with +15 offset but I'm not sure how flush these will fit with the widebody.. They also offer a +22. Which would be better for the widebody?

What is the mounted additional width front and rear of the wide body? If it's an inch wider with the new fenders that gives us somewhere to start.

Without dimensions, no one can recommend something with flush fitment.

Dimensions or pictures would be a good start

As Urbanengineer stated, if we know the additional width front to rear, it does give us something to work off of.

also, just telling us 18x8.5 with a 25mm spacer helps us not so much. typical fitment for a G35 coupe would be somewhere along the lines of 9.5 +22 and 10.5 +22 with 245 and 275 tires.

Yeah, sorry for lack of information. The flares add 2.25 to the front, and 2.75 to the rear.

if those are inches, then 57mm more in front and 70mm more in the rear. This will be give or take a few mm depending on how good of a job your shop installs those flares.
