Here's my ride. A 2005 G35X. The wheels are AT Italia's. The model is the "Flash". They are 18" x 8.5". Tires are Goodyear Eagle F1-GS-D3's, 245/45/18. I got the set from an owner on this site last December but I just put them on. The drive is totally different from the stock 17's and Turanzas. My car has 25800 miles on her so far.
Hey esfoad, I like the way it looks! I've be planning on getting the same size tires you have but I wasn't sure how they would look!! I didn't want them to look too "meaty" on the sidewall!! When you say it rides totally different, what exactly do you mean!!!

What I meant is that it's much more stable in every way. It rides straight, gives superb feedback and even seems to have made the chassis more solid, even though I know this sounds crazy! There is a slight amount more noise at highway speeds as well but nothing annoying expecially for the performance. With the stock 17" Turanzas, it was easy to get the tires to break away and for me to get squeal going around corners. So far I haven't been able to break them away or hear squeal. Shows I'm getting older.
