HA! Really? The alloy makes me feel stock. They're the same size as my summer tires actually. lol 275/245 No, I really haven't driven it much in the past 2 months. I just didn't want the sand and salt tearing up the Volks. I had no problems in the snow last winter on stock tires, just drove slow and I was good.

What kind of spacers are you using? I may be selling my Volks and going back to an OEM 19 setup with spacers, I've always been hesitant to use them though due to internet lore, although I've never met anybody personally who has had problems with spacers.

Like I said, it's just a winter setup so aggressiveness and snow plowing don't mesh too well here. But I should have my Z S-Techs in the mail tomorrow and will most likely put them on soon cause I don't drive the G much in winter anyway.

I have Ichiba V2 25mm all around on the G37 wheels but that's because they're super sunken in on the G35. I could have even gone to a 30mm but that size made me a lil nervous.

I meant what brand. I have some 10mm Project Kics for my Volks but it's like another $50 for their hubcentric rings so I never got around to putting them on. I've been looking into the 25mm Ichiba hubcentric spacers with built-in studs...I think that seems to cover all the bases as far as safety goes.

So it looks like you went with the 25mm's after all. It looks great, I think.

What made you decide on the G37 wheels instead of the 19" Rays? (if you don't mind me asking)

I just like them better than the rays.
