Will 20"s fill the space?

Hi all,

I'm looking to fill the gaps in my tire wells without lowering my 07 G35-S Sedan. I also am looking for new wheels/tires as I plan on using the factory rims for winter snow tires. Can I put 20s of this thing without issue? Will that successfully fill the gap in the wells without lowering? Any issues with rubbing?

Thanks all for your opinions.

Its all about offsets, so you'd have to post those to see if there will be any issues.

Short story is that they will fit, and they will fill the gap a little more depending on the tires you use, but with 20s the car won't look right if its not lowered in my opinion. The less rubber you have, the more the car needs to be lowered.

Just my opinion...

If you think about it, if you want to fill the gaps, you will have to drop it no matter what.

If you put 20's on your car to fill that 2 inch gap, you're raising the car 2 inches. Sure it might fill the 2 inch gap but you'll look like a 4X4 or a lifted truck.

Almost...

You can almost do it with 19's if you go for the right size...

Here's a link to my thread and the details on my 19's...
