Alright guys, here's the story. I'm ready to order some wheel spacers but I cannot make up my mind on the sizes. This will be going on an 06 G35 Coupe with OEM 19" rims. Johnparkyourcar has been helping me with deciding which ones to get, but I'm having trouble with the sizes. I'd like to go with 20mm front, and 30mm rear. Most ppl say that 15mm f and 20mm r is sufficient.

I'd like my stance as wide as possible but the 20-30mm setup makes me concerned about 2 things: A disco look and rubbing. Mind you, I'm keeping my suspension stock, so the car will not be lowered. If 20-30 poses a risk of a disco machine and/or rubbing, then I'm considering 15-25mm.

Your input and especially any pics of widened OEM's are very much appreciated.

Thanks much for your help and input.

Oem offsets are 30 front and 33 rear.

adding a 15mm spacer in the front will essentially give you a 15mm offset on a 8" wheel.

adding a 20mm spacer in the rear will essentially give you a 13mm offset on a 8.5" wheel.

based off the information posted in this sticky: http://forums.g35club.org/zerothread/342067

you will be fine.

Thanks a lot guys. You've been very helpful. I've just ordered H&R hubcentric 20mm f and 25mm r. Soon as these puppies arrive, I'll slap them on and fire off some pics
