^ easily doable.

I'd recommend some spacers if you want to stretch and get them outside the fenders.

XXR 526 there is another Threat where this guy already have the xxr 526 20x9 +15 running 245/35/20 front he haven't get the rears wheels yet, but he post some pics for the front....if you are worried about 20x9 +15 you will still need to get spacer for the perfect flush....10mm. We are waiting for the rears they said at the end of June the wheels will arrive....he have 275/30/20 for the rear 20x11 +15 .....JAZZY...is the name that you have to look for...good luck..

What size spacers? I have 20mm on the front and 25mm on the rears now with the stock 18s. Also dropped down to a 225/40 and 245/40 on the tire sizes for the stockers. I didn't like how the 45s were tucking the rear tire and not the fronts. I will be glad to get away from this setup soon.

225/55R17 fit on the original wheel?

I do have a 2003 G35 Sedan 6speed manual and currently 215/55R17 on the original wheels. I'm wondering if 225/55R17 would fit without any issues (a buddy of mine made me a very good deal on those) but I'm not quite sure . Any input greatly appreciate it

Appreciate it yes I have been following that thread as well. I saw the pics posted and honestly for what I want that is too bulky a tire for my liking. It looks good but for me I would like a more stretched look.

If it were me?

20s in the back and probably 25s up front.

Effective... 20x9 -10 and 20x11-5

Run, 215/35 up front, 245/35 in the back and slam the **** out of the car. Natural camber should get you around -3 and then pull a little on the fenders and done.

They aren't ideal but they will work fine.

That can be very doable since I already have those sizes in spacers on the car now Again I appreciate all the info.

yeah i know what you mean!!! but remember more stretched you go more chances you have to hit the rims side lip....once you bend that you will have to buy another wheel...

Understandable it is all still up in the air. I am waiting to see how long it takes then to release he rears. The car literally sees maybe 5k in mileage a year if that also being in the AZ the roads aren't so bad here.
