Michelins are the best bet hands down.

If I had to choose of those I'd go Michelins, contis, uniroyals. All decent tires but the Michelins will win in every category.





Yes, 9.5 +35 will work on the sedan, you'll need to roll the fenders completely flat.
Thanx for info. I will need 8.5 to make it fit with out rolling fender.. is rolling bad for the body in any way?
1 more question i see same rim with 25mm offset will that move the wheel in more or out?

Got another one for you guys.. hehe,
19x10/11 +15 on 235/255 would I run into any rubbing issues w/ only my rears rolled if I try to achieve the low negatives on these? -3/-4 camber with a 2 inch drop all around.

I currently have 20mm/25mm (F/R) spacers on my Rays and like how they sit, I'm not looking for any poke or that hella-flush style.

Looks like I would need to run 10mm spacers to match my current setup. 15mm would push out 6mm more than my current setup and would probably look nice also.

Thanks, moved the 20mm to the rear and picked up some 15mm for the front. So the effective offsets are now 20x9+17 Front & 20x10.5+22 Rear

Had to get the rear fenders rolled as I had some rubbing on hard corners.

Tires are 245/35 Front, 285/30 Rear

Nankang NSII tires suck A$$. They are the loudest tires I have ever had... By far. I'm glad I did not pay for these, lol. That's all.

Couple of questions. First basic info. I have a 2006 G35 coupe. At this time I have 350z eibach pro kit springs on it. I had to do a 3/4" spring mod on the drivers side rear to get both sides about even. Currently I am running xxr 526 wheels. 20x9/+5 f and 20x11+13 r. I am at -2.0 camber on the front and -2.5 on the back without any camber adjustability for front or rear. I am planning on getting Bc coilovers (true style). I want it to tuck tire all around if possible. I am looking to run 19x10 or 20x10 all the way around. It is my daily driver so I don't want a bunch of camber where I have to buy new tires every 8000 miles or so.
Now on to the questions. What is needed to run the 19x10 or 20x10 all around? I have a slight roll in the back now and their is no rubbing. It would be nice if I could run the same size tires all the way around but I know that is wishful thinking. If possible what size should I go with? Also what offsets on the wheels? I would like lower offsets for as close to flush as possible. I know I might be being unreasonable but worth asking. Thanks.

What was the other offset? The lower the offset the further the wheel will stick out, the higher the offset the further the wheel will sink in.

Rolling is not bad for the car as long as someone that knows what they're doing does it.

Low negative offsets? Or adjusting camber?

Assuming you plan to add spacers, in that case 10/11 -5 or so will be pretty much rub free. The 235 tire may rub a little depending on height though.

You want quiet tires? buy michelin PS2s, one costs what a full set of NS2s are worth.

I've run 5-6 sets of nankangs and I could not care any less about the road noise, if your cars gangster, you don't hear the tires anyways.

Not unreasonable, however please break up your paragraphs when you're getting into the number, makes it hard to pick it a part lol

First off, if your goal is just to tuck tire, then deciding between 19s or 20s is tough, you'll need to roll at a low height to tuck 19s, however 20s you'll still be pretty high.

Enough of that though...

If your camber runs the same once the coils go on, I'd suggest running 10 -5ish with 245/35. This is just slightly more aggressive than your current set up and has a mild stretch.

If you're wanting to do this on beefy tires then let me know and it will change a little bit.

That applies to both 19s and 20s.

My bad. Lol I thought about doing the post in a different format after typing it out but couldn't decide how I wanted to do it. Lol

So,I am going to need to do a roll in the front? Or would it be better to just pull it some?

The offsets on the 19's I am looking at are +15 and +25. +12 and 0 on the 20"s.

I know a big difference in price and quality between the two. Definetly would like the advans better.

What is the other wheel choice other than the advans?

And you rarely ever need to do front fender work. Rolling flat might be ok but all you should need to do is remove the fender liner hardware.

anyone know any good tires in 295/35/18 besides the nitto invo and toyo proxes.

the cheapest one i found is the nitto nt05 at around $250. Some continentals same size were a little cheaper, but i'd rather get the nitto over that, given the small price difference.

Are there other brands i've overlooked that are cheaper

Coil overs, springs , wheels

Hey everyone I'm new to this and I drive a 05 g35 sedan. I want to get in the stance game.
I want to know if I can fit 20x11 +13offset in the front and rear? Or should I go with 20x9/11 staggered look
If I do get 20s should I get springs so it flush or coilovers and what are best coils or springs

Thanks

With some fender work those specs could probably fit. Whether you go with springs or coilovers though is on you. Personally I'd go with coilovers just for the added adjustment, but it's up to you.

There are a lot of factors that will come into play when picking and choosing your parts, like how much fender work you plan to do, how low you want your car to be, wheel specs, tire sizing, tire brand/model, alignment specs, etc. I'd suggest browsing the wheel and tire section and researching setups similar to what you're looking for there. Lots of pictures as well as answered questions there.

You aren't fitting those without a widebody or hefty camber...

Definitely go coilovers, you NEED to go coils if you want to fit the car correctly. My pick, Stance GR+ or whatever the new name for them is.

If this is your first crack at it then you should start off a little smaller in my opinion.
