I am starting to read up on summers- as I do want to finally replace my crappy Eagle RSAs in the spring.

Having some issue with the terminology..

Sometimes I read where firmer/harder
= better control/stability/traction/grip

Sometimes I reader where softer
= stickier = better control/stability/traction/grip

Kinnda confusiing!

What I am looking for is a set of tires that gives me 'stability"....the crappy Eagle RSA give me a very bouncy ride (up/down and side to side). On my earlier Acura TL, it was great - could have been a better suspension mind you, and/or the tires (they were BF Goodrich Touring T/A), but I felt in control - hardly even felt the speed bumps.

I am not an agressive driver, but obviously want to be able to take a corner in a G35..and want to get rid of that bouncy/nauseating ride the Eagle RSAs are giving me. I put on less about 12,000 km a year, which means about 8000 a year on summer tires, so tread wear should not be a major concern. Not even concerned about road noise - thats what music is for! Needs to be good on wet roads as well of course.

Any suggested good-place-to-start links re tire reviews? ..such as this:

2) When looking at some 17" rims, I see ET35 and ET45 . Which one is appropriate for my car (07 G35X 225-55R17) ?

Ok here are the three tires I'm thinking of and bare in mind that we get 0 Rain all year round, so it's sunny, hot and humid 99.99% of the year, so with that in mind what would you choose from the below:

1 - Mitchelin Pilot Sport PS2

2 - Yokohama Advan Sport

3 - BF Goodrich G-Force

I haven't had experience in any but these were some I was suggested to by my cousin so I wanted to see what your comments would be and what you'd choose, thanks. ]]> Defratos http://g35driver.com/forums/v36-brakes-suspension-wheels-tires/314738-tire-would-you-go.html http://g35driver.com/forums/v36-brakes-suspension-wheels-tires/314678-tire-maintenance-light-plus-more.html Tue, 10 Nov 2009 22:32:08 GMT My Tire Maintenance light came on, what does that mean?

Everything I read about them confirms how crap they are past new, and that they really wear down fast. I assume its a really low rating.

I have 30,000 km, not thrilled with them, and with winter approaching, now is a good time to bite the bullet.... but still curious what the tires were rated for.

(18x8, et40, 35lbs)+Toyo Proxes 4 245/45 and the winter stock set (17" stock).

Yesterday I put the winter set with the stock rims - and it's a BIG difference in ride, so much smoother and I think it's because of decreased unsprung masses (35lbs vs ~22lbs for each rim).

So I don't know if I should use my FX35 18" rims for the next spring/summer if they are so overweighted, but they look SO SEXY on my sedan (black powdercoated on my black car :JAMIN:).

What do you think, is it ok to use them (i like them much :confused2:), maybe I'll just buy some softer tire, probably 225/50/18? ]]> harp00n http://g35driver.com/forums/v36-brakes-suspension-wheels-tires/314485-should-i-use-fx35-rims.html http://g35driver.com/forums/v36-brakes-suspension-wheels-tires/314416-wheels-tires.html Mon, 09 Nov 2009 00:45:01 GMT i have an 07 G35 X with the standard 17" wheels and 225 tires front and back. i was looking to upgrade to the factory 18" 225/50R18 (front) and 245/45R18 (back) that come on the S series (10 spoke). Would changing to these tires affect my AWD at all? Is the height of the tires need to be the same because of the AWD? Also, would the warranty be affected even though these are infiniti spec rims? I'm figuring I'm ok because these are the standard wheels/tires on the G35 XS, but wanted to cofirm.
