Please be aware that if you are replacing your stock Bridgestone 19" tires you will pay a very hefty price if you stick with the 225/40r19 and the 245/40r19- approximate 1200 to 1400

I went a different route

I have just purchased new Kumho Ecsta SPT's

225/35/R19 and 245/35/R19 for 600.00 from Discount Tires

They actually are alot quiter and handle better in the rain

I would recommend this to anyone who is stuck in the same situation of having to pay over 1k for new tires. The difference between the actual height of the tire is extremely minimal and does not effect the handling.

Hope this helps and saves someone some money!

What's the minimum load rating for the G35? The tires you listed are 88 and 93, while the stock ones (225/40/19 & 245/40/19) appear to be 89 & 94.

Of course, http://www.tirerack.com (a NICO site sponsor) has the stock sizes at a great price as well.

Just wanted to check in and see how well your tires are holding up. I would also like to know if you would still recommend these?
