So looks like im gonna have to sell my current R1 18 inch wheels bc I tried to put my BBK on this weekend and there was no way in hell the calipers are gonna clear the wheels. They have a lip which pushes the spokes back in the wheel and must not have enough of an offset. So before I buy these wheels (the G35's) I just wanted to make sure, thanks guys,
Grant

 

yes

talk to irish

 

Yes they would. If you look at Irish's set-up he has it.

 

they fit behind the 18x8's and the 17x8's as well Mine is with the 6th gen rotors....I'm not positive if the Cobra rotors will fit inside the 17s...but they should clear the 18's easily.

 

great, thanks for your help Irish! Im lookin for the 18x8's but I just keep seeing the replica wheels on Ebay (and I read your sticky about stayin away from these). Should I just look through G35 forums? thanks

 

look at G35driver.com....there are tons of 18x8's for sale for dirt cheap, or at least there were a couple weeks ago.

 

Cobra ROTOR / Z32 brake BBK.

Wheels that clear.

17x8 Ford Cobra wheel from the 1998
350z wheel.
G coupe wheel.
Z track edition 18s
G coupe 19s should clear also
I SUSPECT the Z 17s might clear.

I've run all the above on my maxima except for the G19s and Z 17s

 

Jeff, are you referring to the G 18x8 or the 17x8 or the 17x7.....

 

Well if it' coupe, that takes out the thinner G sedan wheels. I suspect that the G 17 coupes will clear. But you would have more info than me on this.

 

it would be extremely close with the extra 1/2" of rotor size, as you can see in my pic above. Just wondering if you had tested it, for this guy's benefit.

 

Nope. The only 17s I ran with my bbk is the 17x8" 1998 Ford Cobra wheels.
