Re: PROPER WHEELS FITMENT

Hum, so if I want to go for 18s on the coupe, it is better for me to find a 18x8.5 for the rear right?
Anywayz, I'm wondering if i got the wheel, say Enkei LM1, which is 18x9 38s. Will the tires on my factory 18 wheel fits on the LM1? I'm thinking about getting a set of 18 wheel for summer, and put the summer tire on the factory wheel on it, while get a set of 18s winter tire to put on my factory rims, will this work?

Also, The Enkei CP1 is 18x8 38s, does this mean that this rims will be too small for my coupe? (rear i mean) And if i get this on it will be sort of small and look like a chicken leg?

Also, what aspect ratio of winter tire i should get for the stock rims?

Thanks guys

Re: PROPER WHEELS FITMENT

DiscountTireCo,
What's the stock wheel offset of the stock SEDAN 17" Sports Package Wheel?

While it's nice to have the wheels line up w. the fenders w. a lower offset, would it not rub if they car's lowered? I'm entertaining the idea of going w. F:19x8 +45 (245/35) and R:19x10 +45 (275/30). Would the extra offset clear for the *lowered* SEDANs?

Re: PROPER WHEELS FITMENT

Hello:

I'll like to have wider wheels on the back of my G35 coupe.
I'll like to acomplish let's say the look of a M3 vs a 3series.
Should I go wider on the front as well?
If I go wider on the front, how will this afect my ride?
I'll like to keep the looks of the stock wheels; do you know who manufactores them and if I can get them in 9" or 10"?
Will going from 8" to 9" make a diference in looks or do I have to go all the way to 10"?
What about offset...?
