Hub Centric Wheels

[AlexF]

I'm interested in purchasing 19 inch hub centric wheels for my 08' G35X...don't want to use any centering rings, spacers, etc... I'm pretty sure HRE will make the wheel to OEM specs but they're extremely expensive and I want to explore other options. Any suggestions? thanks in advance.

Also, is it possible to use the 19's from the M with a 245/40 tire?

I respectfully disagree...if you want a superior, vibration-free ride then you want to go with a hub-centric wheel, just like the factory wanted it. Once you go with a lug-centric wheel and start introducing centering rings, spacers, etc., you have a much greater chance of unwanted vibrations.

Compare the price of any lug-centric wheel to a hub-centric wheel and you'll see the difference...and like the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

You'll have to check the width/offset, but I'm pretty sure the M35/45 19's have an offset that's too high.

Check the G35 Coupe forged 19's.

well, now that i reread your post, i see you actually drive a nicer car

BUT your problem wont be hubcentric, it will be balancing of the wheels.I have 19s on my y33, and it has a slight vibration at 120KPH but after that its gone.

BUT a nissan wheel isnt gonna be hubcentric...at least none of hte 8 pairs of random nissan wheels i have are

I have hub-centric rings from SPLparts for my SSR's (which I think are 67mm, Nissan hub bore is 66mm). Anyway, they custom make theirs now w/ billet aluminum. I'd consider that, since plastic is trash anyway and would be fatigued from temperature changes, at least you'll have more wheel options that way.

Check the G35 Coupe forged 19's.

They are made by Ray's! Can't go wrong there.
