19s willl ride rougher, but its all subjective. not sure about the fit, only way to find out is to try.

i think they'd be sweet on your car, but will the offset of the rear wheels fit?

front 19x8 30mm offset - will fit
rear 19x9.5 33mm offset - will fit

if you use the oem infiniti tires, you will likely have some rubbing issues.

by the way, that deal on ebay is not much of a deal....try the G35 forums, and you can find a much better price.

with 19s, the ride will be noticeably "firmer", depending on what tires you put on them as well.

zoolyfe - get some nissan center caps for that biatch!

it's been mentioned before, but I suggest you visit an M45 forum and find out the rim width and offset, then we can tell you.

Damn! Those 19" G35C rims are nice. I should have waited and bought those instead of the 18".

ugh...50mm?

Well....they would fit, but with a 50mm offset they would be farther in the wheelwells than the stock wheels.....and MIGHT have some brake clearance problems.....

that's too bad, 50mm is a terrible offset for a maxima.

is there any way that i could make it work? with a spacer or something i really like these wheels and think they would look good on a max!

yeah, I would go with maybe 15mm spacers and it would work and look good (flush).....make sure if you get spacers to get longer lug bolts!!!
