G35 Wheels on my 97 Q45

Thought I'd share the new look... Lowered on Megan Coils

looks like the picture didn't make it?

Sorry here's the pic

Looks nice, did you have any alignment issues after the install. With my BC Coilovers I had to add some adjustable tension rods to get the alignment correct.

[skyvette427]

Yea. They said they 'did their best'

Tires are wearing evenly & the car doesn't pull so it must be pretty good.

I'm actually getting 20" soon so will have to adjust and realign then also.

I was told the G35's dont work on q45 due to offset - can you repost a pic? I passed up a lot of rims because someone told me that and found the FX rims instead

Looks fine - and no spacers - nice looking Infiniti rims. Looks like the Megans did a nice job - how is the ride compaired to stock now? Thanks for the pic and the factory white looks good

Thanks. Yes the wheels fit just fine. The ride is stiff not doubt specially when you compare it to how smooth this car is stock but I've gotten used to it (my wife hasn't lol) and love taking turns much faster than before.

One thing I found interesting was the ride did get much better when I switched to the G35 rims. Before it was on stock 16" so I thought it would actually get worse with 17" but it is much better.

Looking to switch to some 18" or 20" in the near future so we'll see what happens then.

That is SO FUNNY, this is not a woman's car once coil overs are introduced into the picture!! I took my wo-worker/work wife down to San Jose on a 50 mile ride, there are huge expansion joints and by the end she told me she would wear a sports bra on the next trip . But then I took her over a freeway offramp and she though we were going to fly off the highway.

I have 19" rims and I did new wheels to get rid of my old spacers with 19" M45 wheels and standard offset didn't fit over the B/C's, had to do a small spacer again.

haha! My wife insists on putting makeup while I drive and it never works... Can you post a pic of the wheels? How diff would you say the ride is on 19" and what width & offset are the wheels? The main turn off for 19's would be tire price but fits the best on the car imo..
