Def. get them. They are def. worth every penny in my opinion. I have them as well as many of my friends and we love them. The quality is outstanding. They are quiet on the roads as well. Good Luck with your decision.

This is what he was referring to when you said $600 Shipped. I am guessing you made a typo. $799 Shipped is an incredible price. I paid close to $1,000 Shipped for mine. You are going to love them in every way.

Woops! Meant $799 shipped. But yea, ordered them today, hopefully they will be here SOOON so i can put them on and get an idea of how they look! But thanks for the info, greatly appreciated!

Also just read through a thread, in which there was an argument saying that 345/35/19 for the front, and 275/30/19 will mess up the gearing and speedometer, and vdc, etc...Anyone have any takes on this? Or anyone have this setup and care to help me out if it works out to be ok?

I think you meant 245/35/19 for the front... But anyway, you should also run a 275/35/19 at the rear. The tire shop I dealt w/ here in Arizona (Discount Tire) and my Infiniti dealership both told me that the rear tire's overall diameter should be .50" to 1.0" larger than the front tire. The car is designed to have a staggered fitment. Running the 275/30 at the rear could cause problems with your VDC. Also, you may not be happy with the way it looks either.

WRONG! A 275/35 could cause rubbing in the rear and can cause future problems. The 275/30 is the size everyone usually runs in the rear as it is just PERFECT!

With all due respect, not true. I had 275/35/20 at the rear on my '04 and never had any rubbing issues, so there shouldn't be any issues w/ 19" size. Check out this link and see for yourself http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/tir...27&rd=18&ar=45

Hmm, i have heard that most everyone runs 30 in the back. I have also been told by a pretty reputable source that 30's are ok and they sell them all the time, they are actually who i purchased from. The only thing i have to figure out is if i need spacers.

Good luck w/ those tires. I hope you're happy w/ them & don't have any problems. I'd double check with your Infiniti dealership anyway if you haven't already installed them. You shouldn't need spacers if your wheels have the right offset. My wheels/tires fitted perfectly flush with the fender line without spacers. I had TSW Mondello wheels though, so I'm not sure how your brand of wheels fit in comparison. Just trying to help, since I've already been down the modding road you're traveling.
