RT5 9" 255/35/19; 10" 285/35/19 feasible?

Hey guys,
I think I'll be ordering the Maya rims in Graphite Machined this winter, so it'll be ready to run in the spring time. Would the following setup work for a STOCK height 06' g35 coupe (IP)?

Maya RT5 9" 255/35/19 for front; 10" 285/35/19 for rear

I've calculated that this setup will give me 26.0" in the front and 26.8" in the rear, which is very close to the stock diameter of 26.0" and 26.7". Hopefully this way the speedometer and all the other ABS, VDC function will still work.

Any thoughts? My aim is simply to have a clean looking G with wide rear rims that will look flush at the back (not sticking out). I'd also appreciate information on the offset necessary. Thanks

You'll be fine with the stock height. Even w/a drop you'll still be fine. Depends on the offset of course, but I'm assuming you're going with tried and true offsets that others have ran before you. Then again, you're posting this thread, so maybe you haven't used the Search Button after all...

i've tried using the search button, but i haven't found an exact past setup like mine yet. And I dunno about the offset.

Thanks for the reply though. THanks in advance for any more comments

you'll be fine providing the offsets are good. there are tons with the exact setup on here. may want to re-search. trust me, you'll find them.

Have another question before I can search effectively and accurately, does the aftermarket RIM that I'm going to get makes a difference in the offset? So will a Maya RT5 use a different offset than say a volk rim of the same width and size?

Thanks
