New Rims for the G35
Volk SF-Winnings
19x8.5 +38 Front (10mm spacer to make it +28)
19x9.5 +42 Rear
245/35/19F, 275/35/19R
Slight rubbing in the rear, will need to roll my fenders
Suspension setup:
Z front spring/G35 coupe Rear shocks/springs
Feels good to finally put these on. I've had them since November!

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
Thanks! I want it to stay classy
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.

Yeah that's my roommates Nismo 350Z
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.

Thanks. CBR is good, have to do an oil change, install my K&N air filter and my PC3.
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
Thanks guys
I rolled my fenders this weekend...No more tire rubbing ftw.

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!

I'll do it sometime this week.
Thank you. It means a lot coming from one of the guys running nice setups.

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.

Nice and clean. I like it. I was looking at a few wheels with a similar design to that but with a lip for myself. sort of like the work vs-xx Or even a 10 spoke design like there new vs-xs.
#37
That looks perfect, very clean.
Makes me miss my G35
I had 20s on mine for awhile, But it stood out to much I ended up going to coupe 19s .

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?
