I have a g35 coupe and I just put 20s on. Will it affect the odom.. and what other problems can happen. I noticed a change in the trans. It seems sometimes when i accelerate that it goes in Neutral then back to drive. It’s making a high rev noise but not taking up speed. Thank you

 

Sounds more like a trans issue that a wheel issue

 

replaced new rims had nothing to do with the trans or engine.. u might want to double check again..

 

I am on 20's and dropped on tein 350z springs no issues.

 

What size 20's and tires are you running?

 

If you put 20's on make sure you check the window motors too as rims affect that as well.

 

thats not because of the wheels

it does affest odom. by 1-2 mph

 

tire sizes?

I bet you have something like 245/35/20 / 275/30/20 which will do that since it messes with the VDC...

 

I have front 20x8.5 245/35/20 rear 20x10 275/30/20. What do you mean...which will do that since it messes with the VDC...?

 

 

He means that since your front wheel plus tire height is higher than your rear wheels plus tire height your VDC may be kicking in placing the car in safe mode for a split second. You would know if this was happening though because your VDC light would come on and you wouldn't be able to rev the engine. It really just sounds like your transmission is slipping which would have nothing to do with the wheels. If you have an auto I'd take it to the dealer and have it checked especially if you're under warranty. If you have a manual it's best to start researching some aftermarket clutch/flywheel combos.

Your rear tire diameter is small than the front. its supposed to be the other way around.

Your VDC system is sensing this, and is cutting off power to try and compensate for the false wheel spin.

You may have to change out the fronts to a diameter closer to stock.

Good luck

 

You owe me a keyboard.

This is exactly what I have. I've driven for 2+ years without anything happening. It's not your tires and rims.
