Sizing question

I have an 05 TL A-spec and was curious if anyone has put such a wide rear tire on their car yet. I'm taking my 19x8.5 (front) and 19x10 (rear) SSR D5R's off my G35 coupe and transferring them to the TL. Tires are 235/35/19 for the front and 265/30/19 for the rear. ANYONE else running a staggered setup with such a wide rear tire? Don't wanna go through the trouble of transferring them if they're gonna rub. Also keep in mind this is with the a-spec suspension and trim kit.

That will work.........you will have to use a 35mm offset but I'm not sure about your tire size.

There's quite few guys running wider tires in the front and, 245 front 275 back. The problem are the wheels, they offset is all wrong since they came from a g35 coupe. Also give those rim widths your should and could of ran a 255 front and 285 rear. Hit up g35driver.com if you never been there, you can catch me on there.

Isn't a g35 rwd some rims don't work on fwd because of the offset they will probally rub why not just go with some new rims that are actually made for the tl. I am running 20x8.5 all the way around with 245-30-20 there is no rub and can still put two fingers in between the wheel and fen der so I am going to lower it and hopefully that will help the look.
