22" Wheel Offset Advice

I am looking to update my 2015 G63 with a current style 7-spoke wheels.

There is a 50mm offset (factory) as well as a +30mm offset. Does anyone have an opinion about
which looks better. I think the +30mm will make the wheels flush with the fender (not sticking out).

Are you keeping the factory size tire, or going up in size? Either way, I'd say go with the +30 offset to get the tire more flush with the fender. Tire size will determine if it rubs or not.

If you are interested in a set of 21" factory wheels (black) and tires from a 2017 G65 let me know. I have a set I'm trying to sell.

If you want to lift your truck, and run a 33" mud tire on bronze 22" wheels I have that for sale too. Pretty sure I have the spring spacers you could use for 50mm of lift.

I'm in Houston as well, which would make it easy.

Do the +30, it'll sit more flush to the fenders for sure.

Thanks, just wanted to be sure that the +30 wouldn't look like the wheels are "sticking out". In regards to tire, I was thinking about getting
a Nitto that comes in an 305/40-22. Anyone heard of this size rubbing against body parts?

If the G isn't lifted the 305-40-22 will work without rubbing.
