Exclamation G37s Rim Fitment Issues

Hey guys,

I am trying to put on 2011 G37s rims on my 2011 Maxima and I am having fitment issues with the front 19x8.5's.

Do I need to buy 2 more 19x9's? The rear seem to fit perfectly fine. The hubs in the front are virtually matching up which I'm assuming is the issue.

Can you someone please provide me with a solution. I am not sure if hubcentric rings, or spacers, or anything would help me at this point.

Any information would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks!!

OP, I havent met anyone that has had any "fitment" issues with G37 rims on Maximas... 19x8.5's should work just fine, reason I say this is because usually 19's are on sport pkg models so the rims are made aggressive to clear brembo calipers in case its optioned w/ it. Check and recheck and see whats hitting, or what you arent doing right.

not sure what the issue you're having is, can you go more into detail? ive seen pics of Maximas rockin the G37 Rays so its definitely possible.

Sorry for the general issue.. Below is a pic of the rear fitment, which is perfectly fine

Now this is the problem of the Front. It appears as if I need to bore out the rim in order to get it to fit. I am assuming that any Maxima's that you have G37s rims on them have 19x9's all around.

I posted a pic guys.. Let me know.. I called a local shop and they told me that I need 19x9's all around, but I honestly think spacers will fix the issue in the front.

Do the axle splines poke on 7th gens? Maybe they're hitting the center caps and not allowing the wheels to sit flush.
