Size 10.5 Shoe, Too Big for G35?

Well, I don't think my shoe size is that big, but apparently a little too big for the g35. Does anyone else have this problem? When I try to press the brakes, my toes get caught on the plastic molding that extends down from the dash. I basically have to decrease the angle my foot rests when pressing the brake so it doesn't rub.

are you humping the steering wheel when you drive? I have 10.5 shoes and I don't even go all the way up on the peddle.

Seriously. I wear a 13 and have no issues.

Do you press the pedal with your heel?

must be the way I just set my feet on the pedal, unless I have some weird overhang on my plastic molding. There does seem to be a little play in it. I tried moving my seat in all different positions to try to make it better, but nothing. Maybe I'll just make a cut out on that piece of plastic.

I used to have that problem on my '92 300ZX and wear 10.5 shoes, but never noticed it with my G35 unless I wear dress shoes with a longer toebox.

I think if you raise the front of the seat to raise your knee, your heel will come back a bit and angle the foot so that it happens less. You'll just have to experiment.
