Need Some Advice

I have a 06 g35x sedan and i want to reduce my wheel gap a little. I also want to maintain a smooth comfortable ride. I have 225 and 255 staggered wheels now so theres more of a gap in the front.

I don't think you're supposed to stagger your wheels on the X. Someone chime in on why.

Any deviance from stock sizes tends to drive the wheel speed sensors mad and the stockers really don't want anything other then oem.

Op, consider a lowering kit.

OP ditch those wheels all together, go up to 19s and keep the tires the same for simplicity (and rotational) capabilities such as 255 all around.
Then, consider a lowering kit.

I wouldn't keep it long, there's only a .06in difference between the two diameters so it's not bad but I like keeping all 4 the same on my Quattro just to keep the system balanced
