I like him, that hyena was funny ****. What were you actually trying to say when you spelled that lol

Ok, get the coils then we'll talk fitment of these. You'll want some spacers to make them look perfect.

Hi everyone,

So last weekend I got up early in the morning and walked out to my car to head out. I saw my car without wheels and sitting on wooden blocks at its rotors. My factory 19" Rays were stolen! Luckily I'm covered under a good insurance policy.

I have an 04' G35 Coupe and am looking for a set of 19" Work VS-XX. However it would be greatly appreciated if you guys can help me out with the sizings. I'm looking for a balance between function and form. Where I live in Canada has pretty bumpy roads so I don't want to be too low. But I would like a nice flush fit while being lowered on coil overs. I also have the brembo brakes so I'm okay with running small spacers up front to clear the brakes (5-10mm). From what I understand an R-disk up front and O-disk in the rear would work best if I'm planning to get large lip sizes (at the same time clearing the front brakes).
I have the nismo front /w splitter, impul sides, and chargespeed rear so the car sits lower than with stock bumpers/skirts

with about a 1.5" drop in front and 1" drop in back, how would these fit? Any suggestions?
F: 19x9.5 +15 R-Disk /w 10 mm spacer (235/35/19)
R: 19x11 +23 O-Disk (265/35/19)

Thanks for your help!

Hi All,

I'm planning on getting a new set of wheels down the track and wanna know how the fitments would look in terms of poking out, dead flush or tucked in from the edge of the fenders or wheel arches. I'm currently lowered with BC Racing Coilovers with no camber alignment kits and no guard rolled as yet, I will get them after this. I want to have a dead flush with no wheel gap look and no wheel spacers.

These are the specs I am looking at:
- Weds Sports SA-55M 18x9+20 with 234/245-40 (Fronts) and 18x10+18 with 265/275-40 (Rears)
- Weds Sports SA-55M 19x9.5+15 with 245-35 (Fronts) and 19x10.5+15 with 275-35 (Rears)

Cheers!

Won't have a guarantee that they won't get stolen, but the car will only be there for another few months before I move. Hopefully locking lug nuts and an alarm system would deter them.

^ i'd go with the 19" set-up for no wheel gap... looks like they're more aggressive than the 18" set-up too.
