Got these on Craigslist for 460 with Yokohama Avid's on them. Think I got a good deal....

 

Nothing!?! No comments!?! I know its been seen before/ But, come on!!

 

Do those rims still have the stock size G35 tires on it? 245/45/18 R and 225/45/18 F? If so, you should go to 245/40/18 it'll kill some of that gap you got up front which seems exaggerated by the tires. Otherwise looks good.

 

Yea, it seems really big in the back and i think might hit over bumps in the back. I heard the 235/40 is the way to go... Will the 245/40 take out that rub in the back? Is it better tan the 235??

 

When I was on stock springs, yes it did get rid of the rubbing in the back and the only time it really rubbed after I lowered it was with 4 people in the car 245/40 is closer to the stock tire diameter from what I remember. Plus wider is always better, hehe. If ya wanna make sure, go online and find one of those tire size conversion charts, plug in your stock size vs 235/40/18 vs 245/40/18 and go from there.

 

Slam that bish!!! Looks good

 

Cant do it! Its the wife's car. She doesnt want me to lower it....

 

Gheyyyy.... yours better be slammed then

 

My 3 Series is. I had to prove everything was of value. She isn't very good at visualizing. Sooo...It looks 10 times better than it did.

 

blends in well. keep em.

 

I just ordered these



whats the best size tires to get if i riding stock for the time being

 

The recommended is 235/40/18

 

Looks good. But even a drop with H&Rs will make a night and day difference

 

wow OP!!!! car looks amazing!!! good find!

 

Always liked those rims, nice find

 

looks good, got an incredible deal as well. good job!

 

yea! Nice find! I'd love a set of new shoes for mine, but I just got new tires to the tune of $600 for my 17s. If I got new ones, I'd go for the M45 sport rims.

Looks amazing.

What did you do with your old rims?

 

Thanks! I sold them on craigslist for $120. They were the stock 16's with have worn BF Goodrich tires on them.

 

I looked at those too. But, in all reality I didnt want to spend more than 500-600 on wheels. The car has 105,000 on it. But, it runs real good with no problems and it looks amazing! So, I figured we would dump alittle money into her, she's been a great car to us. The wheels really gave her a huge facelift!

 

Those are some bad @$$ stockies from Infiniti!!

 

would it be good to lower a 1996 infiniti i30 with stock rims?

 

You can! But, it would look better with diffrent wheels. IMO

 

$120... great deal.

 

looks great man

 

Sure about not dropping?

 

Yea, she's not havin it. But, I plan on some tint real soon. Also, Im going to change out the speakers in the car with either Alpine, JL, or MB Quart.

 

tell her its a safety option...

 

lol!! Thats good! I'll try it.....But, my guess is it wont fly.

 

lol

 

true b ut the 96T's basket weave BBS is a classic look . I still keep mine as winters.

 

I miss my set of those. They looked great.

Drop is necessary with ANY rims. Car looks 100x better.

 

One more question......Does anyone else with the same 18's as me. What did you guys do about the dust caps on the back pushing out the center cap on the wheel!?! Do the make a dust cap that is flat to prevent this?

Thanks guys!

 

get 5mm wheel spacers and you'll be fine. i need them to fit the 17's on my front so my centercap wont pop off..

 

Nice job!


So fellas, for tires we can go as wide as 245??

 

i had 245/40s on my g wheels like that

 

Nah, the 245's rub in the back. I'm running a 225/45/18

 

Like the wheels bro, im looking into buying a set

 

Thanks buddy! Lots has changed since this post
