Slight rubbing in the rear, will need to roll my fenders

Thanks. I did a lot of research on picking the right size. Went a little bigger on the rear tire so I have to roll the rear fender

Hankook Ventus V12 EVO. They got rated number 2 in a comparison in Car & Driver. So far, they're quiet and grip well. Not sure about durability but they're a good looking tire.

Looks really hawt Jeff! One of my favorite wheels by Volk. The offset is nice and conservative. I see you had to push the front out a little bit, but it looks like a beast now.

Thanks P! Looking forward to what you'll come up with next for your rims.

There are nicer rims than volks out there for sure.

www.clublexus.com is where I got them since the IS's have similar offsets to the G35 sedan/Maxima. Definitely a great spot to find rims if you don't wanna do the whole G35 oem rims thing.

I actually have JDM sidemarkers with the bump in them purposely in amber. I like amber/black contrast.

Probably about an inch all around? It's a very conservative drop

Jeff- Can you do me a favor? Take a look at the front wheels and then the back wheels. Can you tell me inside the spokes where the wheels meet the rotor, which one is thicker from the inside where it touches to the outside of the wheel. Basically, how wide is the bore/offset, or more so which one is thicker? Front or back? A picture would be super nice of you. More importantly I just want to know if the face is thicker in the front or in the rear. Thanks sir!

Don't go too far out of your way or anything, just the next time you walk to your car, take a glance. It's a clear difference in thickness. Just need to know if it's thicker in the front or rear. No need for exact measurements or anything.

Edit: Not to include the 10mm spacer you have.

Looks really good You can never go wrong with Volks, I have SF Challenges waiting to be put on next week. Thats a really choice suspension set-up for G sedans.

Are your Z front springs revised or non-revised? Going to Nissan/Infiniti Day @ E-Town in May?

I forget which ones they were...but it's the ones that matched up to the spring rates of the stock springs/shocks.

Thinking about going..we'll see what happens!
