Question Question need your input!

Alright so i m getting ready to throw down on a new set of kicks for the G.

this is how my car currently sits


But i think i want to go a little lower in the front dropped on BC coils. the current specs are 19x9.5 +35 all around. The wheels sit pretty flush with the fender line and i want to keep it like that.

The I am already in contact with Ravspec and these wheels can be made in any spec i want.
I have always had a square setup (LMGT4 and GT-S) should i keep these square or should i expand my horizons and go staggered (I have a 08 G35X)

the current specs i am looking at getting are 19x9 +25 all around will these be good? too aggressive? not aggressive enough? should i not run square anymore?

looking for inputs

Since you have an X you dont want to go staggered. Not good for the transfer case. You want rolling resistance to be equal!

I have an 05 X the stk offset is 45. Thats with the stk x wheels. As long as you dont have any rubbing you are good to go!Your X looks sweet! I want my wheels to be flush. So when I get the enkei or vmr wheels this spring I will opt for the same offset as stk.

here are some more pix




This was another set up i had 19x8.5 +25 all around


I think i am gonna go with a little more aggressive offset and dial in more camber as needed and get a little less tire.

Your older set up looks real clean. What tint % do you have on the car?

Thanks! the tints were done at 2 different places so the fronts are a little lighter but its 35% all the way around except the windshield

I still think the coupe 19 sport rims are the best looking wheel on the v36 sedan bar none. They look aggressive yet still classy enough not to scream boy racer. They just flow really good with the lines on the car. Enkei / Infiniti nailed it with the design and should of at least offered it as on option on the sedan. I bet they could've of made more money and sold more G's. If you want a more aggressive look have them powder coated gun metal or black. And despite the sport wheels being staggered they will still work on the x as long as you keep the same size tire all around. the .5 inch difference in wheel width between front and back has no effect on the overall rolling diameter. Just keep the rear wheels on the back for appearance.

this is the exact same setup I'm trying to achieve but don't know where to start... how much did the tires and rims run you and what are the specifications? also what did you use to lower your car?
