I have purchased a set of wheels,2005 M45 sport for my G35 sedan 2005 non/awd.. I tested the rear wheels and it is a go 245-40-19..well i tried the front set i notice they rubbed. My qustion is do i need to change tire size, or run spacers..? need a some feed back on this from someone that came across on this issue.. I plan to lower also with tanabe springs too about 1 inch..

Please give me some direction..

you have to run spacers when running the m45 wheels on the sedan. the oem offset for those wheels is 50mm. you need to run a 20mm spacer on them.

What if I ran 235/40/19 to the front 245/40/19 to the rear. Can i user a 15mm for the front? Why would i need a 20mm spacer for the rear when the wheel has clearance?

You have clearance, but the wheels look sunken in and by adding spacers you will achieve a better look.
