I have a 08 g37 s and on a regular basis drive 140 mph + on a "track"... any way, I wanted to get a set of 22s but wonder if it will severly affect my handling at speeds that high. Im sure it will increase my stopping distance a little bit... does anyone have any experience with this? thanks for any help

lol I wouldn't rock 22 on the track if I were you. What you can do is get 22's but have another set of rims for the track.

The safest way to go is to reverse stagger the set. you have to go with a 21x8 with a 265/47/21 tire on the rear and a 22x7.25 w/232/45/22 tire on the front. this will allow constant control and your VDC will not go all crazy. PM Jeff92se for more info

only from a filipino

what camber / toe do you recommend? you think adjustable toe bolts up front will be required?
