I will be purchasing a 2019 GT this spring. I have a question concerning wheels. I currently have some 19x8.5 +32 and 19x10 +43 wheels on my G37 Sedan. I know Infiniti and Kia shares the same wheel bolt pattern. What I don't know is if this size staggered wheels will fit the Kia Stinger flush to fender? Tires are 245/40/19 and 275/35/19.

The offset on the rear wheels will work fine. Not 100% sure on the front offsets. From other setups I've seen I'd say they'll clear the calipers, but wheel design will play a part on that too.
 
The front wheels have a perfect offset for the Stinger for that 8.5" width. The rears should work out well too.

your front wheels should poke 8mm more than stock and the rear about 22mm more than stock I think it will look pretty good
 
From interior to exterior to high performance - everything you need for your Stinger awaits you...
Thanks for the confirmations.

Do plan to get new tires, though. Those are significantly taller than Stinger sizes and will cause your speedometer to read slow, if that is a concern for you. Also, get new hub rings for the Stinger to avoid vibration issues.
 
I wouldn't bother replacing the tires. They are about .5" taller but the difference in the speedometer will be negligent...unless you frequently travel in excess of 100 mph. Lower than that you're only looking at a 1 or 2 mph difference at hwy cruising speeds.
 
Three things:

1. I wouldn't worry about the tire sizes being slightly larger OD-wise.

2. The center bore on the wheels needs to be at least 67 mm to fit the Stinger. Nissan uses a center bore of 66 mm.

3. Fitment is not just about PCD, center bore, and offset, but also radial and lateral clearances. If your G37 uses Brembo calipers, there is a greater chance that the wheels would fit a Stinger GT.

I mention this because, coming from the BMW forums (previous car), they are very anal over there about this type of thing. Yes, the speedometer will be changed and steering response suffers a bit too with taller sidewalls. But I agree with you, most won’t care or even notice.

Yes I have the bigger brakes on my G37. If they clear those G37 sport brake calipers they will clear the Brembo. The Brembo visually looks smaller than the G37 Sport brakes. By the way G37 sport brakes are made by Akebono not Brembo.

I love their pads, I've used them on my last couple cars.
