Hello all from Tire Rack

I have an 06 Coupe w/ "Sport-tuned suspension" and TR pretty much doesn't have anything listed for brakes. I've always bought Akebono ProAct pads for previous cars, I would assume they make them for the G. If not, do you guys sell Hawk pads? Currently NO pads are listed on the TR site.
Also would like to see Centric rotors listed, only Brembo blanks are available.
I went through this with our FX35 and someone was able to update the database since the parts were in stock, just listed under other vehicles.
I just went through the hassle of trying to find two Conti DWS in that size. Apparently the all-seasons are discontinued.

Stupid question, for the 06 Coupe, aren't the brakes all the same? On a whim, I search for "Base Model" and see on the site all the "New" listings. Still nothing listed if I pick "w/ Sport Tuned Suspension" that's saved to my garage.

The guy who sold me my 2004 g35 coupe put on American Racing - AR337 Burn wheels, they look alright for now but the only problem is he put 20"s in the back and 18" in the front and told me that 20" apparently wouldn't fit in the front. This is obviously not true considering many G35 owners have 20" wheels. I am looking to balance out the setup and am curious what size/fitment wheels should I get. I found them on this site here http://www.wheelplususa.com/wheels/A...ack+Chrome+Lip
I really do not know what to get so if you could give me the exact specs of what to get for a set of those rims to fit on the FRONT it would be greatly appreciated!

Do you have any recommendations for a brand for a tire that size? And if I were to get the AR337 Burn wheels (2 of them for the front) I would get 20x8.5, and bolt pattern 5x114.3 and 30 offset correct?

Neal,
i recently switched from yoko s.drive to v12 evo and have been pretty satisfied. next i was thinking of stepping up to either pilot super sport or advan neova ad08. i also notice the release of the new g-force sport comp-2, which look's pretty comparable to my last few setups. do you think i should just pull the trigger and jump up to max summers or are the sport comp-2s worth a try? if the comp-2s are better than the v12s & s.drives, i think i may try them out. thoughts?

The Michelin SS is probably the best tire out right now. Anything from G's to Porsches are using them. Treadlife warranty, excellent dry, great wet, good ride, etc makes it a great option.

2 quick questions. I currently have 255/35/20 all the way around on my awd X. Would switching to 245 improve handling/steering? Also is it possible to run 245/35 front and 255/35 on the rear? The two fronts are worn and the two rears are almost new. Rims are 8.5 wide btw.
