Hi All,

I've been on the board for a few months now, being a recent add to the Infiniti world with my oh so loved 09 M35 S. These are some damn sweet rides and I imagine myself running mine well into the 150k miles range.

I have my list of mods to be done, and know I want to upgrade the wheels. Not sure which ones yet, but I am hoping for some of your longer term owners/wheel experiment-ers to help me out.

So I know I want 20x9 Front/20x10 rear, with no tire stretch and a flush fit on H-techs. I'm good on the offsets, but here is my challenge.

I want to add the G37 Akebeno BBK at all four corners but I don't want to run spacers on any of the hubs. With that thought, can you all recommend some wheels that have good BBK clearance without spacers?

I like the concave look for wheels, or a semi stock look and not a fan of big lips on wheels.

With those two thoughts, what wheel companies should I be looking at?

Look forward to your comments.

Vossen will fit perfect with the BBK there is alot of clearance with my CV3's. Im on Eibachs so i believe mine would be a little lower then yours.

Vossen is definately one I am considering? Anyone know of others?

Was looking at Concept 1, TSW, XO, Rohana, INcurve - all of which I cannot tell if they have high clearance for brakes. - Does anyone have experience with any of those?

With any of the brands you stated, when it comes time to order, just let them know at some point you're wanting to add a BBK to your kit so you need to know what wheels will accomodate that.

When purchasing your wheels you have to be clear to them that BBK will need to clear weather they're on now or in the future most companies now can accommodate that!! 09+ Infiniti g37Sport sedan are BBK stock so many use that car as a guide for wheel manufactures... Consider that!! Good luck!! :bigthumb:
