Thumbs up Rim Question

Im a new owner of a 2003 g35 sedan, as in the pic. I want the rims in the pic also. What do you guys think? Do i need to go bigger in the back, and smaller in the front (20's in back 19"s in front).

Also, i heard the car has a sensor that detects when my car tires are very low or something of the sort, do i need to be real concerned about this? hope to hear from you guys soon.

welcome and congrats on your new ride. as for the rims, not my cup of tea; too bling for my tastes.

on your oem wheels, there are tire pressure monitor sensors that regulate air pressure. if you get new wheels, you will need to remove the TPMS and put them on the new wheels.

First, you will most likely get hammered for your choice of wheels. Most here will pan them. Me.... no comment.


As for sizing, You CAN run staggered on here if you want to. I prefer to have all of them the same so I can rotate them. This car goes through tires like a fat man goes through BBQ ribs.

There are lots of guys that can tell you the maximum size you can fit. I do know you can get 10" wide rims in the back. You must be careful in the front so you don't rub on the suspension or fenders. (may need to roll them.).

Good luck.

Bolt pattern is 114.3mm by 5 hole.

TPS can be refitted by your tire dealer. They usually do not charge for this.

The main thing is to satisfy YOU. There are all kinds of wheels. Racing, Baller, VIP, Sport, etc. You need to find the look YOU like and don't frickin' worry about what other people think.

Are you sure you want just the rim? Most people prefer to purchase the entire wheel as the rim by itself will do you no good.

Moving on....I don't believe the 03's had TPMS but I could be wrong. As far as going 10 inches in the back, I'm sure it can be done but not very easily. I could not fit my 9.5inch (275 tire, +35 offset) wheels on the rear of my G sedan. You might have to pull fenders, play with camber, get some different offsets or a combination of them all. But lets face it, judging from the wheel style he is choosing this guy will be happy with a set of skinny (7.5inch) 20's as long as they blind people when he drives by. "Bling bling, Everytime I come around yo' city, Bling bling."

as already mentioned, go with what you like. but the style here is mostly sport, tuner, racing ... whatever you want to call it. most ppl don't go for baller or VIP. and there's only one person i'm aware of that likes spinners LOL. just go w/ what you like, but don't get offended if ppl let you know their opinion.

btw, welcome to the boards.
