Hows it going guys. I just got my G a few months ago and have a few plans for it. But, of course I want to make sure if its even possible haha.

So I'd like to swap out my 18in rays for some coupe 19in rays. However, I also plan on adding the G37 BBK on my G35 in the future. Will these rims clear those brakes? Would they clear the 18in rays if I decided to stay with those?

Also, random question as well. What size spacers would I throw on after I drop it on some coil-overs. And will those sizes be different dependent on the size rays I use? (18, or 19)


Thanks again.

Your 18s are not Rays, only the coupe 19s are. Your wheels will not clear bbks but the 19s will. Also the 19s don't need spacers on a sedan, they're flush without them.

Like Blue Dream said... 19" rays will clear with plenty of room and will sit fairly flush. Personally, I added a 10mm spacer in the front to even it out with the rears. I also have the g37 akes installed. Here's an older pic of my fitment (without the spacers in front).

G35 19" rays clears those Alliance BBK 8/6 pistons 15"/14" rotors with room to spare. So absolutely no problems at all with Akebono's.

Damn, thats practically the same exact set-up I was going for haha. Same color sedan too.

Thanks for the information guys.

Not a bad idea, they look great on the sedan.

IIRC they have an offset of +43 so you'd just have to decide where you wanted them to sit to determine the offset.

I just want a flush look with the fenders until I get rims. I have 245 45 tires on the rims if that helps.

15-20 mm spacer will do the trick....I assume the vehicle is lowered.
