2007 Sedan - Has Anyone Put Sport Wheels on an X
I really like the look of the sport wheels but live in Nebraska and get a fair amount of snow, so I really need all wheel drive. I have a few questions:
1) Would it be possible to put the 2007 sedan sport wheels on a 2007 G35x?
2) Has anyone successfully done this?
3) If this is possible, would the ride height look ok with to the larger wheels?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You should run the same size wheels and tires front and rear.
This has been discussed here many times.
Run some aftermarket wheels the same size all around, you have a choice of much nicer wheels also.

Paul, you can run 17, 18,19 or 20" wheels and tires on your X as long as the outside diameter of the tire is within a percent or two of your original size.
For example if you wanted to run 18" tires you would run 245/45R18 in place of your 225/55R17 tires since they are almost identical outside diameters, therefore your VDC and speedo will be unaffected. As I said before it is important to run the same size all around with the X.
Here is a tire size calculator that works well: Tire Calculator

I ran the 7.5 x 18" 05/06 Sport rims on my 05 X, and was very pleased with them.
