Shoot, do I. I remembered that our wheels and tires were getting close to landing in SoCal and you wanted to know if I wanted to drive down with you to pick up our set-ups.

i think 18x8 is the best fitment for g35 and 8.5 will stick out a lot just like the 19" coupe rims

8.5 won't stick out if you get the right offset (I run 8.5 upfront and 9.5 in the rear on my sedan). You should do some research before you order the rims online or at least call the vendor and ask them what offset the rims are...then post that info here so we can give you more definate answer.

Look at the second post by Ttrank

Google "wheel offset"

that would be a no...


it all depends on the offset. you can easily fit 8.5 front, 9.5 rear on the sedan.
