Tire fitment?
Tire fitment?
Hey guys, I am new here and to infiniti. I have a 2006 sedan and ordered a set of 19x8.5 42mm offset for the front and 19x9.5 42mm offset for the rear and was hoping you guys might know if this tires set up will work? For the front 245/35ZR19 for the front and 275/35ZR19 for the rear will this set up sit flush flush with my outside fender? My suspension is stock. Also how much power will I loose, because I ordered a stillen intake (with z-tube) to compensate a little. Any help would be appreciated.....ka'aina
I'm a newb, but as far as I remember, that is a good size wheel and offset. You won't lose a noticeable amount of power from the wheels, but you will definetly notice the power/sound from the intake and z-tube. Enjoy!
You need to remember that tires vary in size according to brand.
Example: Meaning that a Nitto 555 275/40/17 will be smaller on a rim than a Goodyear GSD3 of the same size. The Goodyear is a fuller tire and I suppose they measure differently. IMO I would bump up to a 255 in front and a 285 out back. Do some research on tire fitment with brands, but I think those tires might have a slightly stretched look on the rim instead of being flush.

the 35 in the rear will be taller than the 35 in the front. it would be best to go 30 in the rear.
The front wheel with the 42mm offset will probably not sit flush. most likely it will be tucked in the rear well. The rear will look fine
You will hate the look with the stock suspension and will end up lowering it.
I wouldn't go with any wider of a tire. not only are they less common, they might rub on the shocks or fender lips.

They should fit fine and look good!
If you lower it you may have to roll the rear fenders so you don't rub.

thanx for the input
when i looked at the specs. they are only a 1/2" difference between front and rear. can you see any difference front to rear? and with the offset on the front will it sit flush with the outside fender? thanx again...

The front isnt gonna sit flush with the outside of the fender. If you want it flush you'll need a +35-38mm offset. Everything else sounds good though
