Thanks Derek. I just bought these:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...MEWA:IT&ih=018

The seller told me they would fit over the Brembos, but never indicated if these were the wheels from the Coupe or Sedan definitively. Can you provide me any insight? I'd rather not use spacers.

Thanks, I think I got a good deal also. I don't want to take any chances for the snow driving, as my current tires are not rated for snow.

Nismo: what clued you in on these being for the Coupe? The rear wheels being wider?

Also, what size winter tires do you guys typically use for the coupe's 17's snow tires?

That style rim was never put on the G35 sedan, they had a different style 17" wheel. Also, i have factory 17"s on my car. They are also 8.0 in the rear....
