Finally got the car last week. I've been staring at these wheels in my basement for a month now.

Front tires -225/45/19 rim 8.5 offset 43

Rear tires -245/40/19 rim 9.5 offset 45

The front diameter is +.81 over stock 16 inch tires

The rear diameter is +.56

The car handles very well with these tires over the stock ones.Here are some pictures. I had a realllly hard time getting pictures in this post. I just hope it worked the way I did it.

They look good, but your calculations on how much they differ from stock dimensions are way off!

Now we should be able to see the pics clearly

EDIT: Why don't you put the wider wheels up front since the altima is FWD?BTW, GREAT look! I love it!

Damn that looks sweet! My friend spent an hour trying to talk me into getting some g37 wheels while another friend was doing my springs. I wonder how this will work out with the eibachs. I'm considering getting some and powder coating them. Wow they look sick.

They should be automatically resized to 700pixel width, which is already too small in my opinion lolyou see them in original size?

These look really good, I always wondered how it would look on a Super Black A/C. I wonder if those Infiniti caps would pop out or if they are engraved.

Sweet Rims man! love the look. You'll need to post how the coupe drives with a staggered setup.

You and me both brother! As soon as I can, I'm relocating to Vegas where it's always sunny (well mostly) and beautiful weather! Until that day comes, my arse will be in the NE freezing. Stupid Weather!!!!!

Dangeris- I love the way it handles now, very responsive. The car corners very well just seems to stick to the road now. Can't wait to test it out with out salt grime all over the road. I have to pay attention more to my driving now. Any movement at all and your in the next lane. I really look forward to driving home now. I know your supposed to put the wide tires on the front but I'm old school ( old fart 52 yrs) and that just seems wrong. Seems like it would handle different. Thought I would try it this way.

KIth_Shift- I bought these off ebay $1300 +100 shipping. The seller sold another set after mine for $1375+150 shipping. I've seen others sell for as much as $1850. Just keep looking for a good deal. One problem was I had to buy locks and lug nuts. Local tire store said they were dealer item. I did not want to take any chances so $160 later they are on the car.

mcheddadi- Thanks for helping out with the pics, I had a hard time getting them on here. First they were to large and needed to be cropped down. Well 3 of them anyway. Then I could not get them on the post at all. I'm not even sure how I ended up with this way. The ones I cropped seem to be the problem Pics. They do seem a little jumbo now but thanks again!

Someone asked about the center caps, I will be changing them when I find ones I like. I did not like the ones in the stock wheels. My 14 year old son keeps telling me its not a Infiniti change them!

Thanks everyone

hehe, I was using Firefox for years exclusively. Til one day Firefox started to become unresponsive after about 10 mins of use and I had to restart it every 10 mins. Waiting a while for Mozilla to settle that problem. Appearantly it happened everywhere, not just one computer so ... hehe
