What's the backspace of the stock 17" & 18" wheels
I'm looking at buying Center Line Mojave wheels for my G35 Coupe.
They come in 18x8s with 4, 4.5 and 5.5 backspacing.
My understanding, after talking to Center Line, is that backspacing is the space from the back of the wheel rim to the point where the inside of the hub is placed against the disk brake.
Therefore with a 4" backspace the outer wheel rim is closer to the outside of the wheel well when compared to a 5.5" backspace where the wheel sits deeper inside the well and closer to struts, shocks, etc...
So does anyone know the backspacing on the stock 17" wheels. Ditto for the stock 18" rims.
TIA
P.S. The Center Line rep couldn't tell me if their wheels would work on the G35 as they've never made any wheels for Infinitis.
