Xxr 521

Question if these will fit well and what tire sizes I should run. http://www.nlmotoring.com/ProductDet...0142N&CartID=1

XXR 521 18X8.5+25 all around square setup on a 2005 Infiniti g35x sedan NO big brake kit. No mods rite now, but may lower 1.5-2" on Bc racing coilovers in the future. Ordering rims soon for now while looking for input on tire sizes. Please let me know if these are okay to order. Will get spacers around if needed.

Reason I need rims/tires first is because once spring comes I need something to swap my winter setup out 2 as I have no summer setup yet.

Thanks so much =)

how would these offsets and tires fit on a sedan?
20*8.5 +33 OFFSET front
20*10.5 +30 OFFSET rear
225/35/20 front
255/35/20 rear
I also have coilovers and rear camber kit ready to be installed as well. Thanks!

Yea you'll be good, I'd recommend a roll in the rear if you do lower it. (even if you don't i still would say roll em)

I'd run 245/40 and 225/45

If you want a square set up go 245/40 all around.

The front you're gonna want a hefty spacer so it doesn't look stupid. Probably a 20mm at least. The rears will be good, solid roll and about -4 out back and you should be good.

Thanks for the proper reply =) How about spacers for me, any opinions on if I'll need anything to make it look more flush to the fender?

Searching and sifting through the majority of this post and I still am unable to find the answer I'm looking for?!

Here's what I'm trying to figure out:
06 Sedan with stock suspension and no Brembos
not interested in lowering or rolling
daily driver
20x12 R and 20x10 F?
will they fit without rubbing? (not opposed to using spacers)
what size tires should I run?

Thanks for the help in advance, I've already taken a lot of advice/learned a lot from this forum, so why not add a little bit more knowledge?!

Will these fit??

Just purchased a set of Stern ST8 wheels. They are 20in with 8.5 +20 on the fronts and 9.5 +25 on the rear. The tire size on that is 225/35/20. Want to make sure these will fit with out spacers or fender rolling. I have a 2005 G35 Coupe with the stock 18s and stock suspension. Thanks so much!!

question, i'm looking at some 19x8.5 wheels i don't think there available in 9 or 9.5inch widths also i don't want staggered for rotating purposes. The 19x8.5 wheels have a +15 offset. And i'm trying to determine how close to flush they would be, i'm only dropped on Tein S techs 1.75 drop

Recently got a set of 370z sport wheels. Put them on but decided to take them off cuz they rub to much. But when I tried taking the wheels off they were jammed in and the only way I got them off was by banging the back of the wheels. Tire size are 255/35 front and 285/35 rear any idea why this happened and what do I have to do to make them fit...

Not a chance in hell are those fitting without extensive work. Sorry man, try to keep the widths 10" or under if you don't plan to lower the car. Anything more will be a little difficult to fit.

They'll fit but larger tires are recommended and you will have room for spacers. The rear fenders will not need to be rolled for this set up as long as no spacers are added.

Coupe or sedan? If it's a coupe then these are about 15mm further out than your OEM 18s or 19s.

I would recommend a 10mm spacer for this set up.

When you say jammed in do you mean the wheel was stuck on the hub or??

Also is this a sedan or coupe?

i recently tried a 370z sport wheel when i had a flat tire on my current wheels and they didnt rub at all with those tire sizes but guess it depends on how low you are compared to me and other factors..

as to the wheel getting "jammed" the same thing happened to me when i realized my lug nuts werent tightening down onto the wheel..the 370 wheel got stuck on my hub and i had to kick the tire to break it loose..

That's because the 370Z wheels use a sleeved lug nut. You need to use the 370z OEM lugs in order to mount them.
