So I've chose my wheels which will be concept one RS8

19 18.5: offset 18
19 10.5: offset 25

Tires:
245/35/19 front
275/35/19 rear

Do you guys feel this is a good setup

I have an 07 coupe

 

Did you mean 19x8.5 in the front? If so, then it's a little weak. Either get a lower offset in front or a 19x9.5 wheel.

Also, I run those exact tire sizes on my 19x9.5 F / 19x10.5 R setup. The 245 you have in front may look a little meaty on an 8.5 inch wheel.

 

sorry for the late reply but yea that's what I meant. And ill probably go with the 9.5 in wheel in front and 10.5 in the back.

Are u happy with your setup since ill basicly have about the same?

 

I run a 19x9.5 +17 F / 19x10.5 + 24 R, and I really like the setup. It's not "hella flush" or super aggressive by most people's definitions, but with those widths and offsets, I find that it puts the wheels and tires even with the edge of the fender while still allowing me to run my camber within factory specs.

 

your stock wheels are 18x8.5 and the rears come with 245s so that is your fitment there... theres no right or wrong its what look you are going for. i have 245 on my 20x9s and 285s on my 20x11 both are a small stretch but nothing ridiculous by any means.

also whats your ride height like? and what look are you going for? stanced and stretched or just set of good looking easy set up?

nick05 has a nice set up that fit nicely, by the sound of the specs, and without pulling or rolling fenders right?

 

I'm dropped on 350z H-Techs and did the rear sprint mount mod. I had my rear fenders rolled...may not have been necessary but I did it as a precaution.

 

^^ true, cant hurt. im lowered on greddy coilovers and I had 19x10.5 with 26mm offset in the rear with 275s on them before my current set up, and i got them rolled too and after the fact idt i needed too. i have an inch of clearance lol...

but to the OP, what look are you going for? and what is your ride height currently and/or do you plan to go lower?

 

well I deffinitely want to go lower. I'm working with a stock ride as oof right now. I want a fairly aggressive setup, something that will make me pretty flush. I'm planning on getting lowered on 350z h techs after the winter hits. I would roll the fenders if need be no problem.

So do u think my origional setup I spoke of would be good for what I'm looking ffor only with a 9.5 wheel in the front instead of an 8.5
Thanks for the help guys

 

Edit: apparently the 9.5 inch wheel from concept one wont work with our cars.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I think its because it doesn't come with less then a 38mm offset. So that being said my origional option is probably gunna have to stick if I want these wheels lol

 

youll be good with that set up, 8.5 with 18mm up front and 10.5 and 25mm in the back... you can always add spacers to be more aggressive. but it will look clean with those dimensions. also if you wanna be a fairly aggressive with tires too, run 225s on the front and 265 on the rear. the stretch will similar front and back, and youll be stretched without being ridiculous

 

^^
Yea that's the setup ill stick with since I'm not looking for anything crazy. And like you said if need be ill throw some spacers on. Thanks for the help again!

 

yep the 19 9.5 will not fit on the front of a G35 coupe with out running spacers. 19 8.5 F and 19 10.5 R is the application.

Ill deffinitely contact you when the time comes. Do you know if there's anyway to get a custom color done to the rs8 wheels from the factory? I'm looking for a nice gold with the polished lip
