I have the 18" coupe on my Sedan, I think the 17" fits on the Coupe w/o brembos.
I have my 17" 5 spke for sale.

The sedan 5 spokes use a 45mm offset. Doesn't the coupe use 20mm front and 30mm rear? That's a awfull big difference to not have problems rubbing on the inside.

Re: G35 Sedan 5 spoke wheel on the Coupe

Coupe Offsets:
17"
Front: 17x7.5, 30mm
Rear: 17x8, 33mm

18"
Front: 18x8, 30mm
Rear: 18x8, 30mm

The 17x7 sedan rims would be 15mm farther back (a little more than a 1/2 inch), but the rims are a 1/2 inch narrower in front (so it winds up only intruding 1/4 inch farther in) and a full inch narrower in back (which almost washes out). Plus, you can't really mount anything wider than 235 on the 7" rims anyway, so there's not going to be much extra tire sticking out in there.

On a side note, tire choices that fit the 17x7 rims are rather dismal. For the performance oriented coupe, having 22lb rims and lousy tires is not desireable to me.

So the 18x8 with a 30mm offset for the front and back is on a non brembo equipped G35, right?
