help me with 18" rim and tire size.

I am buying Borbet XL on my 07 G35x.

I was wondering if I were to get 255/40/18 on all four, if it will affect my awd. well most i'll be doing is driving during the summer.

thanks!

Long as they are the same overall diameter you are good to go...Which they are.

It's diameter between front and rear that you need to worry about, not width.

You can use your original sensors from your factory wheels. Just have your wheel shop swap them to your new wheels.

Most aftermarket wheels will accept the OEM sensors. You can use them, or use none. I dont have any sensors in my wheels and my light doesnt come on until after about an hour of driving.
