IP 5at 06 G35 Sedan.

Looking to swap out my stock rims/tires for work vs-xx rims.

I want to get 19's and want to know if these sizes will fit (i dontwant to roll fenders or anything), just drop the rims in:

19x8.0 or
19 x 18.5
for all 4 tires

Thing is i dont have a clue on what offset to get. The specs are here for the 19" Deep rim

any help is MUCH APPRECIATED!

 

if you want 19x8.5 all around then go with +35-40 and you wont have any rubbing issues even if you plan on lowering the car later on.

im sorry i dont see +35-40 on the list.

can you have a look at the attached specs image?

thanks,
clint

 

the 19x8.5 +42 on the deep rim list will work fine on a sedan.

thanks Gdup35sedan. Im getting quotes from local auto stores now. Will cost me a tad bit more since i live in Dubai and they get em shipped from the US.

 

Definitely post some pictures if you get them. I dont think i've seen VSXX on a sedan yet. And you've got the best color G so they should look even better. what color did you want the wheels in?

well a dealer got back to me quick.

he had alook over at the work catalogue and said that the g35 is a staggered setup:

19x8.5 in the front
19 x 9.5 in the rear with +29 offset (for standard cars).

Would you say this will fit?

or am i safe to go 19x8.5 all round?

thanks

 

the g35 coupe is a staggered setup and the +29 would work on that. However from the factory the sedan isnt staggered. You can go staggered on the sedan but you need a higher offset. If you were to go with 19x9.5 in the rear the offsets needs to be between +40-48.

So according to the list you provided, you can go with both the 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear on the deep rim list with a +42mm offset front and back.

im being quoted US$4.5 k with tires and shipping... hmm have to rethink alot.

if u dont mind me asking, how do u like them 5zigen rims? they r the closest i can find to the works vs-xx and not rape my wallet.

i can prob get the hyper black and get them painted bronze or gold..

 

i love em, much cheaper than works or volks and they still look great. I was thinking about powdercoating them gold for a while but as of now, i'm keeping em hyper silver.

thanks for the info man.

im getting a quote for 5zigen as well. i will probably get the silver and powercoat them gold. Is powder coating the best procedure?

And another q:

19x8.5 +38
19x9.5 +45

Why didn't you get +45 all around?

 

You can powdercoat them or paint them, powdercoating isnt going to cost as much because its not as labor intensive. I didnt go 45 all around because a 45 offset on the rear is flush with the fender and 38 is almost flush, a 45 offset in front would make the wheel look like it was sunkin into the wheel well. With a +38/+45 everything looks even.

ive decided regardless of cost - VS-XX gold it is.

just to confirm - will

20x8.5 +38 front
20x9.5 +45 rear

fit on my 06 sedan without rolling anything or should i go 19?

 

those will fit perfectly, but you're probably going to have to roll your fenders in the rear just to be safe. Even with 19's you'll have to roll the fenders.

if i dont roll them will they rub alot? reason being i live in Dubai and the garages here are .. err how do i say it.. STUPID. they dont know how to properly roll fenders.
