I'm wondering if i can still use the existing wheels with the new tires. Not sure if the wheels size will fit...
As i understand, 215/55R17 is g35 tires size, but I can be wrong...
Thanks.
It doesn't really matter whether or not the tires currently on the car are the G35 size. I think what matters is that the tire size on your car strays too far from stock size, which you obviously plan to address.
You can most likely install the correct sized tire on the existing rims. You already know that the diameter, bolt pattern and center bore are compatible with your EX. The only other things you might need to worry about are the width and offset. The OEM wheel width is 7.5", and the offset is +45mm.
As long as the aftermarket rims don't stray too far from those original specs, you shouldn't have much of a problem. If you're still worried, have a wheel and tire shop check out your wheels prior to purchasing your tires.
