As per the link on the first page of this thread, those wheels are the same size. Nissan just put different sized tires on them. That's a pretty lame way to stagger a setup IMO. I don't see any reason you couldn't switch them around provided that you used to same size tires all around...vangj wrote:So I just went and bought some G35 18" rims yesterday and threw them on my car lastnight, Kouki. No pictures yet.
I had a question to see if you guys know the answer. I believe all 4 rims are 18x8 +30, they also said 18x8 and 30 inside of the spokes. The rear rims also said "Rear" and the front rims also said "Front" inside of a spoke. Do you guys know if the fronts can be used for rear and rears and be used for front? Any idea why they marked them? Maybe just because of the staggared tire fitment? I plan on using same size tires all around, maybe 225/40 or something.
Also, I still have the stock 225/45 and 245/45 on the rims. The front rims sit pretty close to my coilover. The rears sit fine. The rim is maybe about a half inch away and the tire is probably a little closer since it sticks out a little over the rim. Will I be okay as long as it's not touching?

I was about to ask the same thing, just picked up a sweet set of Touring V.1's for $300 with staggered tires, but will be running the same tire size eventually, once I get it lowered too.simmode1 wrote:

It needs to be stickied, IMO. I get tired of having to look for it when ppl when questions...DRO916 wrote:Please do keep this thread alive

um yes, 245s are about maximum if you're running coilovers with the high offset of factory z/g wheels. anything much bigger you'll need spacers.bm3r wrote:bump for:
-18" g35 wheels

will any of the z/g35 wheels fit without rubbing on lowered suspension?
What size tires are you running?k_c_b wrote:here's my contribution
not to happy with the fitment yet but i'll roll the fenders some day
And what suspension mods? Coilovers? Springs? I got the same wheels on stock suspension looking to drop it soon and am looking for setup ideas.k_c_b wrote:245/40/18 all round
What all suspension parts did you buy to sit like that. I am curious because we are on a pretty much identicle setup. Are you running factory z tire sizes? You have not rolled correct? Thanks and sorry for all the questions I love your car by the way!DRO916 wrote:Here's another
Need to roll my fenders before I add spacers
