new 18s on 04 g35
I am currently running stock 18s on my g35. My 18s have snow tires on them now and instead of buying new tires (my summer tires went bald and I threw on my snow tires at end of last season) I am looking to do a rim+tire package. I am looking at getting another set of 18s (aftermarket) as 19s are out of my budget (getting married) so wondering if a set of R1 Hypes would look ok on my car in 18x7.5 around. I like the rims (machined w/black) however i do like a stagger fitment better. Thoughts on these on my car or should i pass onto something else. I like a lip and 5 spoke design.

The rim itself is decent, but it might look small and puny as a 7.5 all around. Maybe I just feel that way because I'm used to seeing massive staggered 19s and 20s on all the coupes, but I feel that you might wanna fill more wheel well with your buck! Plus for the kind of money that they sell a wheel and tire package for over there you can get a set of very VERY good OEM 19s with tires, which are made by Rays, which IMHO is a LOT better than R1. Plus you'll be bigger(rims do wonders for the manhood
), and staggered! Then you can spend the extra couple hundred you saved to powdercoat them whatever color your heart desires!!!

What would be better 19s or 20s. I dont want to sacrafice too much ride quality and dont want it to look weird (too tall) as dropping it wont be an option for a while as I am already going to have to sell organs
Think I found the rims I want.
They are Falken Koblenz 19x8.5 around (staggered was too expensive)
Wondering if 8.5 around is too big for front and too small for back or will work fine?
Also what tire size should I run in front and what tire size should I run in back or should they all be the same.
Thanks!

Also what offsets should I be considering. I would like it to look more flush with the fenders however I dont want to mess up the camber to much if I dont have to.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
