So, I've been digging though the site over the weekend and I cant find a definitive answer to all of this so here goes: I have a 2006 G35x, with stock 215/55/17's. I want to mount winter tires about November or so and I have a set of 225/50/17 winter tires that were formerly on my maxima. I know this will throw my speedo off by about 2mph (slower) but would it throw off my traction control off as well? I'm up in Maine at least 2 weekends in a month so i am guaranteed to run into snow. I want to make sure the speedo thing is the only thing to be aware of. Thanks.

Hey I have and 08 g35s sedan with the g37s rims . I was thinking about doing 20mm all the way around but will it matter if I dont plan on using the oem tires for the g37 sport rims? I plan on getting

245/40/19
275/35/19

and was wondering will the wider tire size make me change the spacer size? Or does it not matter that the tires will be wider?

4 days of searching later and a random google search today pulled this one up. I think I have my answer; they may look funny on account of the larger gap but that seems to be the only other issue. So no traction control or abs issues with 225/50/17 on the X. If anyone knows different, please rebut.

rim size

Will 20 inch rims fit all around the 2006 G35 without wheel well modification? I was thinking 20x11 rear and 20x9 front or are those going to be too big?

yeah that fitment will depend on the offsets of the wheels....but unlikely it will work without at least a fender roll

I have searched and searched and found zip.

I have a set of 285/50R18 Toyo.
Can I put them on my 18x10.5 rims on my G35 coupe, lowered and cambered? or would I rub on inside or out?
