New Member. On My 3rd Nissan. 2013 Fuga Hybrid VIP Rim Size Question?

[cezeff]

Whats up guys? or should I say Konbanwa from the land of the rising sun....I live in Okinawa, Japan..So far I have owned a 2001 350GT RWD, 2006 Fuga 350GT and just purchased a 2013 Fuga Hybrid VIP aka 2012 Infiniti 35h...My question is about rim sizes...My current 350GT has aftermarket 19's, yet 19's are the default factory size for the GT model...With the Fuga Hybrid, default size is 18, I want to go 20 all black....Have you guys experience any negative impacts of larger rim sizes? Anyone own a 35h hybrid and upgrade the rim size? She is a beauty and I don't want to do anything to impact performance, that's the whole reason I got her...If you can provide any advice or steer me in the direction that would be great...Also if you guys have any questions about parts and stuff here in Japan let me know...Pics to follow once she gets in!!!

Hello and welcome.

I don't have the answers, but I believe I've seen someone with a modified M35h in this subforum:
infiniti-m37-m56-and-q70-forum-f1247.html

The US market M35h is on the y51 platform like the infiniti m37 and m56, so i feel lIke structurally most of the information you read for the non-sport modes in there will appl to you.

At the top of the page, there will be a search box indicating "search this forum", type in "m35h" to narrow down.

Thanks..I been all over the forum...Dont see too many 35h owners..Yet it is on the same platform as the m37 and m56...I will go with total rim/wheel weight to stock rim/weight...Looking at 20's...If they are over the weight of the original stock then I won't pull the trigger on them and just look for a lighter rim...
