Hey guys,

I have an 06 G35 coupe and lowered by about 1 inch to 1.5 inch. I prefer not to roll fenders.

Will I rub fenders if i run 255/35/19 in front on 19x8.5 +23, and 275/35/19 in rear on 19x9.5 +24?

i'm mainly just concerned about the tire width in front. Thanks.

What offsets? You shouldn't have any problem, 8.5 is pretty weak, but if for some reason they're stupidly low offsets (unlikely) ... well, need more info.

Hey,

Just have a quick question because I'm picking up some mint oem coupe rays for my 03 g sedan, and the seller is going to also throw in 2 brand new tires on the rear wheels that are 255/40/19. My sedan is stock (atleast i think so, just bought it as is). Question is, would I have a problem using these tires or should I just tell him to keep the tires and ill get whatever you guys advise?

I need some help picking out some new tires this year. Right now I'm running Nankang NS2's. 225/35/20 on 8.5" in front and 255/30/20 on 10" rear (should these be 255/35/20?).

These tires are cheap but have performed pretty solid for me... only thing I really don't like about them is they are kind of loud. I would like to run some nicer tires though. I don't drive in the winter but it can rain quite a bit here so I am looking for a solid tire for that.

I am considering the Hankook Ventus V12's. Opinions? If I run 225/255 will these tires fit about the same as the Nankangs?

The only problem I foresee is that your speedometer will read a bit low for the actual MPH. I run 245 40 19 and mine is right on.

OEM 19's

Hey guys,

I have a 2005 coupe with the stock sport suspension and OEM 19's. I'm currently running 15mm spacers in the front and 20mm spacers in the rear, and plan on going with 245/35/19 tires in the front (225/40/19 is stock) and 265/35/19 in the rear (245/40/19 is stock).

Given the spacer and tire width combination, will I have any rubbing issues when going over bumps?

Thanks a lot!! This thread is very helpful

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum and a noob to this whole offset thing. I tried doing some research but I couldn't really figure it out.

I'm trying to invest in these Works XD9 and I'm looking at 18x9 F and 18x10 R.

I don't plan to drop, so what offsets should I be using so it would sit how my 17's stock sit?

I have Hankook tires. I was just checking my tire's tread out recently. I notcied my rear right tire's tread is completely flat on the insides of the tire. All the other three tires are fine. What can cause this? I did alignment few months ago. Should i need to rotate my tires. (I wish we could rotate tires front to back than just side to side since they are one directional.) Should i rotate and balance or just rotate? How much typically rotating on a 2005 G35 Coupe cost?

It's typically not recommended to have wider tires on the rear of an awd car. It can throw off how the awd works.
