Very nice man. The previous owner of my car took all the splash guards off, Ive been debating on putting them back on, but after seeing your car, I think Ill just put the rears on. Looks tough that way.

Pardon my noob-ness, but I want those wheels, I know they are stock G wheels, but what G did they come on?

Thanks man. Front splash guards were removed when I installed the nismo skirts. If I ever get the rear lip I'll remove the rears. If I don't, might just get the 05-06 splash guards, they look better.
Wheels are from a 1st gen coupe (19" oem rays), gotta say that I'm loving them. Wasn't sure at first, but I made the right decision. They're really light wheels.

They are the coupe 19's on the G35.

Clean setup albert! I'm on bc co's on my X as well and I actually just picked up a set of OEM rays and so I was trying to decide on the tire options. I see you mentioned that you are 245/40's all around and that is with 8" fr and 8.5" backs right? Did you also have any issues with the fitments or rubbing in the fronts/backs? Pretty flush? I have a fender roller but was wandering if you rolled your fenders or not. Trying to see if I can get away with running 255/35 rears and 225/40 fronts...

Very clean G! Do you happen to have your alignment numbers? Looks like a nice drop - that retains drive-ability.

Thanks, yep I went with 245/40 all around, staggered setup. Remember that you have to have the same diameter all around or else you'll end up ruining your AWD system.
No rubbing issues at all, when I first installed the rays I was a bit worried that I would rub. They sit pretty well, but I would like to get more flushed, so I'm thinking of going with 5mm or 10mm all around. I think I would rub if I do, hoping someone here would confirm this for me.

No, never got my alignment numbers. But I'm eventually going to get a rear camber kit. Prior to my alignment with my 18's my tires were shot! Seems like the alignment helped out a bit, my 19's are holding up pretty well.

The drop is perfect for me, pretty comfy, not ruff at all, especially here in NYC. Some say I'm too low, but I do need to contact BC and order spacers for the rear struts. Seems like it sits lower in the rear and don't think I can raise anymore. I heard BC will send spacers in order to raise up a bit.
