Those will probably rub, but not sure. But why run such a massive size? The understeer will be really pronounced. Why not run 275 like the Nismo recommendation?

Below is a recent article on Nismo tuned 350Z's. Should use the same setup for the G, as it's more or less the same car.

We constantly use x235F & x275R, but I think x245F & x285R WILL work pretty well

You could also run 255/35/19 front & 285/35/19 rear. I think you could also fit 245/35/19 front & 275/35/19 rears with no problem.

Running a 285/30/19 might be a tad too small - overall height.

I have 19x9.5" wheels in the rear and running 285/35/19. This size is closer to stock than a 285/30. My offset is +20 and I'm lowered on RSR springs. I don't have rubbing.
