Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
I think he means the twin turbo (according to his sig anyway).
Quick question tho...I'm looking at a set of Volk LE37T's, specs are:
19x8.5 245/35 Front
19x9.5 275/40 Rear
Offset is +22
I didn't see this offset on the chart, but do you guys think it'll fit? I'm not familiar w/ offsets, but it sounds like as long as I'm under 38mm I should be ok, is this right? I haven't dropped my car yet, but may drop it about 1.2 to 1.5 inches in the future.

NO! That won't fit. Those will stick out like crazy. Anything 38 or higher (in number) will fit in the rear. In the front you can't go as far because of the suspension member.

...sigh...thanks for the info. The guy had it on a 350z, so I was hoping it would fit. Oh well...thanks again...

Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
To all,
Boones' hosting my updated chart at his site (www.g-owners.com) here
To those whom have been PM'ing me with wheel fitment questions ... sorry if I haven't gotten around to answering them all, but I get bomb'd by wayyyy too many questions on a daily basis. Sometimes I will hesistate to offer advice if I'm not at least 98% certain of the outcome. It seems many of you guys here are doing a great job support others as well
For all of you's reference, I will be running the following setup:
F: 19" x 8.0" (+38) on 245/35-19
R: 19" x 9.0" (+45) on 275/30-19
They will be VDC friendly and should work out nicely with a * *1.5-inch* * drop.
I test ran the Z 17" wheels (also referenced in the new chart) and they look spetacular with approx. 1.5" of drop. You'll notice my above choices came as no coincidently close to those Z wheel measurements.
Enjoy!

Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
What is the smallest numerical offset anyone out there is running on a 17x8? I'm looking at a 245/45/17 Falken Azenis on a 17x8 and want the widest track possible without rubbing.
Thinking somewhere around 30mm is going to be the smallest offset I can go, but I'm just guessing based on the cool chart provided.
Thanks!

Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
If you try an offset less than +40 with an 8-inch rim on a 245 width tire, I can *guarantee* that the outer edge of the tire will touch the inside of the rear fender if the car ever goes over a big enough bump.
Whether or not that bothers you is another story.

Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
This is from personal experience? Another poster had some data suggesting 30mm would work in back, but 40 was the smallest he'd go in front...

Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
With this setup you're running:
F: 19" x 8.0" (+38) on 245/35-19
R: 19" x 9.0" (+45) on 275/30-19
Would this also work with 8.5" front and back or would you recommend a different setup. I would like to have the look of the silver sedan by Giovanni. Also if I order the rims and tires online, do I need to specify the offset or is that something that can be handled when I get them mounted?
thanks in advance

Re: Sedan Wheel Fitment Chart
any updates to the coupe 18's on a sedan?
i'm a noobie to the g35, as i just picked up a 03.5 sedan for my wife, and i'm thinking about picking up a set of the coupe 18's and can't decide on the tire size i'd run with that...
i figure 225/45/18's would be good all around... but wondered if i could run 245/40/18's all around as well? how much will the coupe 18's stick out if they are +30 offset with those 2 tire sizes? i was also considering running 255/40/18 in the rear, but i think the 255/40 would be too wide on the 8" rim, from what i've read an various forums...
anybody else running the coupe 18's on the sedan, and what tire sizes are you running?

THX723,
I'm gonna be running 19x9 and 19x8 rims. What tires do you think I should go for. I don't really wanna be sitting on "rubber band"..You think 255/40/19's will work all around?.Any ideas?
Thanks
