for good price look for the style you like 5 star 5star split spoke 7 star so on then i would refer STR nichie and stance because great price and good quality. then think about what type of style fitment aggressive 20x10.5 25/30+ offset 225/35 stretch. semi aggressive like mine 20x10.5 35/40+ offset 245/35 265/30 semi stretch. conservative F20x9 32+ R20x10.5 40/40+ offset F255/35 R275/30. my step up semi has been very good to me for daily driving had this set up for 2 summers and i drive my car in philadelphia winters.

Does anyone know if 20x9" +25mm wheels will fit an '07 Infiniti M35X (with 245/35/20 tires)? The car is currently on the stock suspension....for now.

Hi all
I have a 2008 M45x with leaking air from corrosion around the valve stem on at least 2 wheels Size is 245/45/18 which i think is the stock size. I am thinking of replacing all four rims rather than repair/ Any suggestions on rims to replace the OEM rims with. I am not necessarily looking to upgrade. May try a repair but think I may want to just replace the rims

I have been searching tire rack. I believe the OEM width is 8 so its probably better to stick with that. The OEM offset is 47 mm. The closest I get to that with tire rack is 45 and 50 when I pick tilt cast with flow forming. Is one choice better than the other. I can get to 48 mm offset with low pressure casting. Theses are actually cheaper too but are they as durable?

mac , this is on the repair side of things. I have gone with STEEL valve stems , which utilize two "sandwiched" silicone rubber washers that are extremely leak-proof and the switch was ACTUALLY due to a wave notoriously defective Chinese valve stems which FLOODED the World market since 2007-2008'ish , whereas the DISINTEGRATE with minute cracks and even completely brake open ! :rotfl I got them at O'reilley's and they snug - up with a double locknut , if a drop of Loctite is also used they are virtually FOOLPROOF & LEAKPROOF ! :yesnod

I would like to still use the TPMS SENSORS. Right now there is a rubber valve stem in two of them. A local shop thought the leak could be repaired by replacing the gaskets in the tpms. They did not charge me for what they tried since it did not work

You can get new ones from eBay that’s what I did

07 M35 with 22" velocity v12 rims.

22" will fit with no modification and no rubbing with the right offset and tire size.

Mine are 22x8.5, offset 35 with 255/30/22 tires

I have a staggered 20” setup that was on it when I bought the car. I just bought this a week ago today, and it’s been quite cold out. I haven’t been able to get a look at the wheels to do a proper measurement, but measuring through the wheel I can estimate 20x9.5 in the front, and 20x10.5 in the rear. 275/35 Pirelli snow tires on rear, and 225/30 up front. Don’t know offsets. I get some rub when I have back seat passengers, going over a bump.
I’m going to change them to 275/30 on the rear, and 245/30 up front. I’m not a fan of the stretch on those 225’s.
