Quick tire question...
Ventus Sport k104 255/35z R18 Tires mounted on G35 Coupe 7 Spoke wheels a good combo? Right now I am running 225/40/18 Tires on my Murano wheels and with that info... Just wondering if I will have tire fitment issues more than anything...

This is the best tire calculator out there, IMHO. And it shows there will be a very slight difference on the speedometer, which is not bad at all. But the most important thing is the rim width. If the rim width is atleast 8.5, then it will work fine and there shouldn't be any clearance issues. So, go on ahead as long as your rim is a 18x8.5. I hope some other person can give another input. Goodluck, men.

what are you lowered on? If you are not lowered I am almost certain you wont have any problems...
Even if you are lowered...8 inch rims with 255 tires shouldnt be an issue unless you are dumped more than 2 inches. I also doubt you'll have any rubbing problems b/c those 35 series tires are like rubber bands lol

If the wheels are 8", then a tire shop will say, "it will bulge on the sidewall". But hey, guys have put 255/40 on 18x7.5. So, I think at 8", it should just be ok. Though not the perfect fit recommended by dealerships and or tire shop vendors. Oh, and search this guy Chernmax. He is running 255/40 on 18x8. And he says it handles just fine! So, IMO, you should be good. So, from my end, you have been approved to do what you want on your car. It is ok.

Im on S-techs and I'm running 235s on a 7.5inch wheel. I have less than 2cm of wheel gap on the fronts...BUT there is still at least 0.5inch of space in my wheel wells for a wider rim...but I personally know how the S-techs drop and during really hard turns I supposed it is possible you might rub. I am 99% sure in a straight line you wont have any problems at all.
