Hi,

I'm looking to buy a G35C 6MT before the end of this year. However my major concern is the 19in tires and rims. I drive a lot in the NYC that are covered with potholes, etc. My two questions are:
1-Is it possible to downgrade a size to 17 in or 18 in?
2-Can I use the same tire size for all 4 wheels, instead 2 front and 2 back?

Thanks!

 

i dont see why you cant downgrade to a smaller size..you should be fine

 

if you want to, i will trade you my 18 in stock wheels (will need new tires next year) for your wheels plus a little extra cash... let me know.

 

You can do both but pay careful attention the the rim offset. I have an 2003 6mt and my winter setup is on 17" wheels. I went with Voxx MGs with 225/50-17 tires at all 4 corners. They're nothing fancy but I'm only using them to plow through snow and salt covered roads.The rims barely clear the Brembos but they work.

 

thanks for the answers.

 

i have some 17s id be willing to trade for + some cash

 

yes, it's possible to downgrade. here's my experience going from aftermarket 19s to OEM 18s:
