Advice for these rims on my G




Km691 bronze


Hay guys I am interested in buying these rims for my 05 grey G but need advice on measurement. I love how 20's look on other people's G so I'm going with that with these. On the website they have these sizes available. Front: Diameter 20 8.5 and Rear: Diameter 20 8.5 , and 20 9 . Now should I got with the 20 8.5 all around or 8.5 front and 9 back ? Keep in mind guys that I also want wider tires in the back to fit flushed with the finders. I kno about the spacer, coilovers , and etc. But I just want to see what u guys think I should do for rims size above and also name tire size for which ever diameters u pick . Thanks

Personally not a fan of those rims and for size I would stick with 19s for the g35 coupe I think that 20s just over power the car that' is just my opinion

Thumbs up 20's for the win

I have 20's on my coupe and my car looks great, runs perfect, handles beautifully and gets loads of compliments. Plus the steering feels more direct and precise.

Question 20's here as well!

20x9 F/w 245 35R20, 20x10.5 R/w 285 30R20. Perfect combo in my opinion. Do a little more research before you drop the $$$$ on the KMC's. Much nicer wheels out there man!

Yeah those wheels are pretty ugly... But for the size your looking for should be 20x9 for the fronts and 20x10 in the rear..with 245/35 Front and 275/35 rear... Add a very mild drop and it'll look damn good...that's the most practical but would look very nice and simple in my opinion. Well that's depending on the offsets too... Mid teens to mid 20s for offsets should give you no problems...

Thumbs up Win, win, win all day long

I'm running 20x9's and 20x10's, 255 35 r20's in the front and 275 30 r20's in the rear. I'll be switching to 285 30 r20's when the rears wear out. I also have a mild drop. Tanabe NF210 lowering springs, drop is 1 inch in the front and .6 inches in the rear. The ride is firm but, never harsh. My car stays planted to the tarmac. Next up Tokico D-specs and Tanabe swaybars. I never want to get out of my coupe. Offsets are 20 all around.

^ This would most definitely be the route you want to go....if your going with 19s you better do your holy homework on the drop,tire size, and camber...if your want to look good and not put too much thought into it, keep it real with a mild drop and 20s for sure...

See that looks amazing man. That's why I want to go with 20's cuz the fit looks perfect . Do 19s look small on the G ?

Thanks again Mr. Brooks I like your specs on tire preference. This might sound childish but I still want to be able to pill out, and etc like a kid I don't want to be just for looks . I want to what's it's intended to do . I've seen a lot of guys who have 20's with tremendous power and looks great and plus I'm not planning on slamming mines or having it stupid flush right now . I want a nice set up that doesn't hurt power , or handling.

I actually prefer 18's with fat tires. I'm actually going to make that transition from 19's once I burn through my current set of tires. Going for more of a track build with my G =)
