Re: [red] My new wheels!!![red\]

I haven't decided yet what to get springs or coilovers. I might just get the coilovers since i can adjust the height. Thanks for the kudos.

Hey, you did the "red" thing wrong, it's <font color=red>RED</font color=red> Damn, that won't work, LOL, any way, the last brackets, the slash comes before the word red, and it's this / JFYI!

Re: [red] My new wheels!!![red\]

Am wondering why you chose 275/30 in the back, rather than 275/35? 275/35/19 is the proper size to maintain the correct stagger. You may have problems with the VDC, and the handling that has been designed into the car has been upset. Your front and rear wheels now have the same Outside Diameter, and the rears should be 1" larger. Did you go with someone's recommendation? If so, they didn't understand the stagger designed into the "G".

Love them. I was trying to decide on rims and I wanted to get RO_JA rims...but was afraid of the price. I heard they were a pretty penny. How much for the set? (just rims only)

I went with what I seen most people go with on this site 275/30. I think the 35 series would rub if you lower the car, I could be wrong. I placed my new wheel next to my stock wheel before they were put on I didn't see a major difference in height. I took a picture so that you can check it out.

Re: [red] My new wheels!!![red\]

35 tire will not rub on your setup (i run a 30 pro on my 20s), especially since your backspacing is not that aggressive. Placing the wheel next to your stock wheel will not give you an accurate measure since there's wieght on the tire. You will have vdc problems, G35mt is using a 30 and his vdc kicks in all the time.
