The work wheel is the original wheel I believe, I think rota just ripped it off but anyways, a "lil" more to me is like another 500 bucks possibly, these Rota's are selling for 900 and the work wheels (although ten times better quality) are selling for 2 grand. I can't invest a 1/4 of the cost of the car back into the car considering I bought the car preowned I cant justify it. I guess I would I didnt have that rust problem and if it was a 6 speed....

Anyways, can someone advise me on the closest wheels size and offset that I can get to my stock 18" wheels?

Hi guys.. would the following specs work good with G35 Coupe?

I'm all stock, no brembos, no lowering, no fender work

I just need my wheels to be slightly more popped out than my stock 18's, will this offset do it or will it do the opposite and get more tucked in :S





Thanks

If you don't want rolled fenders go with 9.5 +12 in the front and 10.5 +15 in the rear

I'm trying to fit my 19x12 avant gardes on the rear, I have spc but am thinking about upgrading to spl and keeping toe bolts since I heard spc can only run -4 while spl can go to -10.. Original owner suggested keeping the spc arms and 'making them longer' for them to run more camber. Should I sell and go to spl? Or keep spc..

Wtf? Are you missing a decimal point? Did you really mean -10? As in degrees of camber? Jesus..wouldn't your car look like the DeLorean in BTTF when its flying?

I've heard nothing but good things about both spl and spc.. I was confused after I read that spc's only offer four degrees of adjustability on many websites, but today I spoke to two g owners who are running -9 and -14 with spc rear arms

right. it's +/- 4* from the point of natural camber/initial amount of camber.
