What is the largest wheel and tire combo that will safely fit on a G35 coupe anyway? I found some nice Enkei 19" rims with Goodyear Eagle RS-A P245/40R-19. Will 40's fit without modifying the fenders? How big can you go? I want to fill in these wheel wells.

I honestly love those stock wheels. I wish i had them on my car (i think, maybe its just cause you want what you don't have . But there only 18"s and i have the 19's w/ the 5 spoke spiderweb or whatever you want to call it. Keep with the stock wheels unless you find something less aggressive then that 370z wheel, it only looks nice on the 370, nothing else really. I like to keep the G more of an elegant car, something more like a aston martin then a lambo

Good luck yo and I'm feeling your vision. The coupe is never going to drive the same with that damage. For 13k-14k could of had a good working car......

I can't agree with you, clean title 04 6mt with 50k will cost around $16-$17k, I'm almost 18 years old and I don't have that much money, I think this car will drive same as it use to be before, I'm using all oem parts.

I don't think its not going to pay off. Its going to have a rebuilt title and the resale is going to be shot. Rebuilt cars sometimes have many problems in the long run and can be unsafe at times.

Ive owned quite a few salvage cars, if theyre fixed properly you save $1000s. But I enjoy doing bodywork and paintwork, most people dont know how or have the resources.

As for the wheels, Ive always hated the 03-04 stock wheels, the Z ones look way better to me.

What about it? Throw it on a frame rack and realign the car. I dont think Ive ever read a news story saying that an accident or death was the direct result of having a salvaged title vehicle.
