G35 Coupe , building for FI
Noob needs wheel and tire help..

Hello all.. Well looks like im in a 2003 G35 coupe now..

Its Silver with stock black rims.. I like the look but I want to go with 19 inch and eventually get a set of lowering springs (1.25 in the front / 1.00 in the back)

I would like a more aggressive look and keep the black theme going..

Based on the rim size and lowering , what would be the best tire size without having to mod the fenders? I like to drive on the twisty and curvy roads

What wheels are on the car now and when do you plan to upgrade to the 19's? If the answer to the second question is soon I wouldn't bother buying new tires for the current wheels unless they're dangerously worn.

Check our Marketplace under Private Classified, noticed a set of 19" '06 coupe wheels for sale a few days ago! You could run 245/35/19 tires on all four corners for a very controlled ride! Even when you lower your coupe you won't have any issues running this setup! Before you consider lowering, do yourself a favor and do a SEARCH using the word "Lowering" you'll be surprised what's required to do it right + the $$ cost!
