Why no fit?

I was leaving tire selection to the kid (and DiscountTire). I bought him the wheels, he can spring for the tires! I have Yokahama S.drives on the G35 coupe and to your point the sidewalls are pretty even with the wheels. Very square, no bulge. Same for the Hankook Ventus I have on the front.

The only other factor I can think of here is the brake rotor thickness. It essentially acts like a spacer. In yall's experience do they vary much?

I have some 18g sheet that I may make some templates based on our calculations. That'll provide a better view I think.
