https://g35driver.com/forums/wheels-tires-25/ he means this section. It is the rims and tires section of the tech section. Your question is probably answered in there. Good luck and nice rims.

At least 265/35 rear and 235/40 front, but probably better to go 275/30 rear and 245/35 for the front.

In either situation you keep the same rolling diameter (that way your speedo is happy) as stock but get a wider tire with the second option. If you wanna fill out the wheel well a little more, you'll have to look up how tire sizes work.

A camber kit is necessary even for stock suspension. Lowering it requires both a camber kit and toe bolts. Many people will say it's not necessary, but for proper alignment and tire life every G owner should add front camber adjustability (as well as rear adjustability and toe bolts if lowered).

275/30 is way too short for an 18in
Try 245/45 and 275/40 for 18s
