Just bought a set of Rays rims and tires on eBay. Specifically asked him if they were staggered, he said no. Lo and behold when they arrive they are staggered. Tire sizes are 225/40/19 and 245/40/19. Is there any way to make this work on my AWD G35X?
EDIT: just did some searches. Would this set up work if I got 225/40/19 tires for the rear wheels?

 

I would got with 245/40/19 in the front.

 

^From everything I have read the wheel and tire god just gave you your answer.

I did see this in the FAQ sticky at the head of the forum and it seems to say not to https://g35driver.com/forums/showpos...22&postcount=2

 

BTW if you we the 225/40 it will be alittle stretch on there I believe.

 

So the 245 width tire would fit fine on the front rims? What are the widths of the front and rear rims? I may end up returning the wheels and tires for a refund.

 

They are 19x8 front and 19x8.5 rear. Are these the coupe wheels. Here is a car that is running 245/40/19 all around.

 

Wow, that looks really good. Maybe I'll have to suck it up and get another set of 245 tires. Yes, they are the coupe wheels. I got the set and newish Kumho tires for $660

 

Any update on whether you ended up putting on the 19" Rays? I'm looking at buying some tomorrow for my 06x. Any learnings would be helpful.

i went with 245/40/19 Hankook Ecsta LX Platinum all around, works fine

 

Is there a difference in the front and rear widths? I've read that as long as the circumferences are the same all round, the widths doesnt matter. Is this true?

 

i have a set of used 245/40/19 with half tread left i'd be willing to sell for cheap. Pm me if interested

 

The fronts are 8" wide and the rears are 8.5" wide.
