Infiniti OEM rims

hey guys,

My moms looking to get a set of winter wheels so I found some Coupe 18s. They 7 spoke ones. I just wanted to double check to make sure that they fit. Also, which infiniti rims wouldn't fit, that way I can avoid them.

Brendan

Just searched through 8 pages, I didn't find the specific answer, I know the coupe 19s fit. But I just want to make sure the coupe 18s fit.

I bought a snow set-up off a guy with a first gen coupe. Its an ASA rim with snow tire set-up from tirerack, and I was concerned the off-sets would not work on an 07 sedan. The bolt patternsbhg are the same, the offsets are a little different between gens. I assume the guy I bought them from used the same offsets as 1st gen OEM coupe. They ended up fitting on my 07 sedan. They do not stick out past the fenders and dont rub since there is lots of wheel gap on a stock height.

your logic is slightly backwards here

when you go smaller you run into the possibility that things like the offset, and clearance from the caliper to the inside wall of the rim end up a tad incorrect. seeing how the 2nd gen has relatively large discs and calipers, that clearance (a measure of both inner diameter and offset) could be a problem.

it may not be an issue in this case, but it never hurts to ask.
