How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
Infiniti G37 Coupe OE Wheel Specs
The 2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe (Coupe) uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 66.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are F: 18x7.5J R: 18x8.5J.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Keeps unsprung weight low to preserve the factory handling balance
- Matches the wider, performance-oriented tire sizing typical of this platform
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake package and suspension geometry
- Balances grip with ride comfort for daily and spirited driving
Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F 19x9.5J ET30 / R 19x10.5J ET32 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Infiniti G37 Coupe.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
F 20x9.5J ET25 / R 20x10.5J ET28 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: F 18x7.5J ET43 → ~5.94″ F backspacing, R 18x8.5J ET45 → ~6.52″ R backspacing
- Flush: F 19x9.5J ET30 → ~6.43″ F backspacing, R 19x10.5J ET32 → ~7.01″ R backspacing
- Max: F 20x9.5J ET25 → ~6.23″ F backspacing, R 20x10.5J ET28 → ~6.85″ R backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Infiniti spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Infiniti G37 Coupe? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
