Re: Got 19's wheels?
Looks good! G35Lin say's they look small, but I bet you're suffering from the same thing I was when I put 20's on my sedan and posted the pictures, something about the way the picture comes out when its dark and you use a flash... It makes the gap between your tires and fender look way bigger than it really is (see mine in the rides section). Guys were saying I should lower my car, and there's NO WAY I could lower the car, I'd rub the tires right off the car!

Re: Got 19's wheels?
Not too sure. I don't know much about this kind of stuff yet. =) I want to get these rims...

I need to know what size of 19 tires I should go with in the front, and what size in the rear. Not sure how all the offsets and different sizes work. These rims only come in one 19" size (19x8.5). Can you put 245/35/19 on these rims in the front, and a differnt size in the back like 275/35/19? Or would it have to be smaller than 275 in the rear?
Thanks!

Re: Got 19's wheels?
g35cdude,
Those are some really nice rims. But IMHO, since it has that lip, combined with the spoke being wide, and adding in this car already has a 'dwarfing' effect on wheels..... these rims look like they are 17's or 18's at most. I ordered a similar set with a lip which will be here next friday, but I went with 245/35/20's all the way around. I could have went with 235/35/19 front and 255 or 265/35/19 rear but my friend with a 350z went with 225/35/19 and 245/35/19 rear and there was a gap and the rims once again didn't look like they were 19's. Here's a pic of my friends Z with the exact same set of rims I have on order:

Do you think I'm gonna have any issues with 245/35/20's all the way around? Rubbing? etc. My salesman says he's actually going with 20's on the front and 21 on the rear on his. And he's seen 245/35/20's all the way around and it looks perfect and the place where I bought my rims from agrees. What do you think? I'm sure you've looked into this more than I have. Any opinion would be greatly appreciated. I also had a choice to trade in my stock and put out an additional 6bills for the very nice looking factory 18's also. Probably still have the choice, if I'm willing to eat the 10% restocking fee.
