Best tire specs for 03 g35 coupe?

Hey guys,

Currently I am running 245/45/18 all around but my tires are about 8+ years old so its time to change them even though they have less than 10k miles on them(i drive very little).

My question is, would 245/45/18 in the rear and 225/45/18 staggered in the front be optimal for the G Coupe?

Im not sure what tire size is best to buy, and im looking for some advice.

I also noticed that my car shakes when braking from high speeds(70+ MPH) and it does not happen at all while braking at lower speeds, could this be my tires?

I changed my rotors and brake pads not too long ago.

High speed shake is usually rotors.

As for your question about the BEST tire spec, that's pretty subjective, depends entirely on what you want out of the car and what wheels you have. Personally I try to stick to factory size tires.

OEM tire size for your vehicle is 225/45/18 front and 245/45/18 rear.

i actually decided on some michelin pilot sport AS4s today, went with the factory settings 245/45/18 and 225/45/18 , appreciate the reply

very weird cause i just changed my rotors and got slotted ones with my brembos. i was thinking it was maybe my tires since theyre 9 years old lol.
