OEM rims for winter

Hi everyone. I am sure that this has been brought up before but after a few days of searching I have not found a definate answer. I wanted to know which OEM 17 inch g35 rims (or even 350z) will fit a 2006 g35 coupe 6mt with the 19" rims.

Will any oem 17 inches from a g35 coupe or sedan fit the car (and the brakes)? I want to pick up some for use in winter and any specifics would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

I knew that, I was planning on getting winter tires put onto the 17", but I can't get the tires till I get the rims. I am trying to find out if and which oem 17 inch rims will fit first.

I drive a 05 coupe with the sport-tuned suspension. The car came with OEM 19's (now Volks) but I purchased a set of OEM 17's for the winter and picked some blizzaks to get the same overall wheel diameter (within a few millimeters).
I have no problems at all with the 17's and I have used them for 3 winters.

Hope this helps.

PS: I moved to Florida and might sell the rims+tires soon. lmk if you would be interested. Thx

Nice Info. I am correct in believing that the 2005 and 2006 with sports had same size brakes correct? Do you happen to remember what the 17s where from? A coupe or a Sedan? I might actually be interested; do you have any pics of the setup and how much thread is left?

Thanks!
