rolling the fender is 
Ive seen a 10.5 and a 9.5 right next to each other from the back and side. Like I said, not much difference unless your trying to look for it. And even if you are, you wont notice that much difference.

I have 8.5 in the front and 10.5 in the rear. Most people would gripe about the "added weight" well, I had the opportunity to weight my 9.5 rims that I previously had (same style) and the difference was only 4lbs on each side. So to me the extra 8lbs was well worth it. Take it from me, people's opinion's sometimes are biased because they have only had one set of wheels. Anyone know I been through 4 sets of Rims already
And I can tell you the 10.5 in the rear is well worth it. But its all how you like the look here are pics of my current setup
8.5 front
10.5 Rear
And regardless of what people say the "tire streched" is a bit exaggerated IMO. It looks perfect!

Wicked4u2c: You need to get that greddy rear on!! Car looks hot man.
I love my 9.5/10.5 rims. I too was in the same boat thinking which widths should I go with. I said to myself let me just get the big ones because I dont want to regret it later on.

If I get 8.5 front and 10.5 rear for my G35C which offset do I need to get? I know for the 8.5 and 9.5 its a +21 +23. I dont want to lower my car, and I dont want to roll the fender or anything like that. I just want to put on the rims and end it at that.
