Here's some on Ebay, if you search around just use "swift springs 4n908" as the search

I believe those are specific for the X (part # 4n907), the 4n908 are the RWD Swift part # .

noticed that too...

hello guys...

i just bought these rims and tires off a guy and they are a set of 20s with tire specs 245/30ZR20. i think all the tires are the same spec and size the rims are 20x9 as well

i drive a 2007 g35 journey sedan RWD i was wondering if i would be able to just throw the wheels on the car and everything will work fine? the rims do fit on the car but i haven't put all them on yet and test drove it yet.

am i missing something else? do i need wheel spacers? and could i put lowering springs on it with these 20s?

245/35/20 would be the best fit diameter-wise, the 245/30/20s are almost an inch shorter and almost 4% different than OEM so you may have issues w/ your VDC & ABS (+/-3% difference is usually the acceptable variance range). Rims will be fine lowered (and should look better on a lowered G) do you have the offset specs for the rims? As far as TPMS sensors, you can leave them off and get used to the sensor light staying on or install your OEM sensors in the wheels and resetting the sensors, I think there's a DIY on that somewhere here. Or you can buy a new set of sensors for your model year.

It's a number that's usually stamped or printed to the inside of the wheel and should read something like ET 35 (which would be a +35 offset).

The stock offset on a 8.5" wide rim is +45 I believe, but a range of +35 to +45 is typical for a Sedan. The coupes have a wider stance and can use more aggressive offsets, in the mid +20s.
