Hi guys. i just bought a set of G35 18's without tire. I am driving a s14, so i need help on tire fitment for the front and rear. i'm trying not to rub. so any help would be great. Thanks

If those are the 18x8's, do 225/40/18 all around.

I would recomend 225/45/18 or 245/45/418.

I would recomend 225/45/18 or 245/45/418.

Those tall sidewalls would give him a larger overall rolling diameter than stock and throw off his speedometer.

OP, I run 225/40/18's on my 18x8.5 350Z wheels. The subtle stretch looks great, handles fine and keeps my speedo accurate.

A 245/45 is gonna bulge/be over-square on an 8 inch wheel and be quite unattractive, IMO. At the most... I'd say a 235/35/18 for an S14.

BTW... Infiniti didn't stagger those wheels... http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki...tions

They are 18x8+30 all around. But for some dumb reason, Infiniti decided to stagger the tires 225/45/18 and 245//45/18 like Indmotorsports suggested. Those sizes would not be well suited for the S14 platform, IMO.
