Stock Height, Want New Wheels!

Hey everyone, I have an 04 OB coupe and want new wheels at stock height. Im looking into varrstoens, g37s rims, and others. Not wanting to spend way too much.

Please leave your suggestions with specs.

My suggestion if you plan to stay at stock height is to stay with stock wheels...

I agree with single6mt. Stick with stock rims if you don't plan to lower the car

I think that G37 rims will have offsets that're too high for your G35, so the wheels will be too tucked in, and then you'll have to spend extra on spacers.

u can always get a set of 19" forged Rays G35 OEMs......(your 2004 coupe probably didn't come with the 19" Rays?).......

Staying stock these days is different

If you're going to do wheels without any suspension work it's not going to look right. At least go to a 20" rim to minimize the wheel gap if you go that route. But consider at least springs if not full coilovers, if you start thinking in that direction do the suspension before the wheels.

18" 5 spoke 350z wheels look good on stock height

That car was lowered on Stance coilovers, but the same wheel specs will also fit on a car at stock height. 19x9.5 +22/19x11 +25 with 245/35/19 and 275/35/19 tires.

Watch our MARKETPLACE under Private Classified wheels for what you want. You can normally pickup a nice high $ set of wheels/tires for half of new retail. Be careful, no extreme offsets....high teens to mid 20s will work best with your coupe! Even if they have some rash a quality wheel shop can fix that easily making them like new....Gary

I would reference this thread to see what springs suit your needs best.

In my opinion coilovers are the best option as they give you the ability to adjust the ride height. Many vendors on this site have good deals on coilovers.
