i ordered the sivini sv3 in 19s and now i wish i went with the 20s. I also got the eibach pro springs, but the rims don't fill the massive g35c wheel wells even with the drop. anyone else feeling the same regret?

I don't have either one. But I think 19in is the best size.

I like 19's, but that's just me... Maybe it's the rubber you chose, or more importantly the size... Just a thought...

IMO, NO WAY! 20's don't look right on the G especially w/o a big lip. They make the G look weird like it's feet are swollen... and yes I've seen 20's in person both at stock height and lowered.

Its true...the G swallows 19s easily. 20's look much better especially if you're leaving it at stock height.

Boils down to personal opinion, I guess. Me, I think 20's look a little silly/bling'y on these cars. I've contemplated going with 19"'s over my stock 18"'s, but even then, I'd shop for the best performers rather than rims with the most tacky fake rivets/biggest lips.

agree, a set of chrome 20s on a g35 coupe just doesn't seem right. i always lmao when i see one of those sits in a dealership's showroom.

I would definitly go with 20s. I have the OE 19s on my car and, honestly people mistake them for 18s. The wheel wells on the car are so big they just eat the rims up. 20s are the way to go IMHO.

Yeah, I'm a bit bitter too,,,,..... Oh wait I did get 20's
Kept the car at stock height too, most people think it looks lowered with the 20's on. I almost purchased 19's when I found a G35Driver that had sold his car and was selling the wheels seperately. Deffinitely was a good choice.

Later,

Ray
