18" Wheel, will they fit?

Hello,

I own a '91 Maxima, stock rims and tires. I'm gettin a good deal on some G35 Coupe rims, 7-spoke 18" with 225/45/18 front and 245/45/18 Back, would these rims fit my car?

Thanks in advance

buy just the rims man. the tires will not be of any use to you. maybe the fronts, but the rear tires are definately gonna rub. i was running 225/40/18

exactly, you might wana find out the widths too, ive driven a g35, theyre rear wheel driven, hense the wider tires which probably means theyre wider wheels in the back too, if your buying them from a friend just take an afternoon and put them on to see if they fit in the first place.

UPDATE:

I've tried on the rims and they look amazing.

The rim size is 18 x 8

The front rim seems to be fitting well and can turn all the way without rubbing. The back tires are fitting in and are litterally millimiters from the shock, maybe even touching it. I've driven the car, and on some turns there is sound that is comming off the back. Maybe some wheel spacers can be the answer for the back wheels?
