Hi! I'm the new owner of a 2007 and want to replace the 17" wheels.

Will 245/35/19 tires on 8.5" rims rub in the front with a standard supension coupe? With the standard suspension, will they rub in a turn over bumps?

Thanks!

Thanks for the sharing your personal experience with that tire size!I appreciate it!

BTW, the wheelbase for the coupe is the same from 2003 through 2007.

It also depends on the offset of the wheels that you're going with.... Well, that would have more to do with interference with the suspension components and how flush they'll be, but you still need to take offset into consideration.

Hey guys, I am new to the forum, and actually posted this somewhere else, but it looks like you all have the information I am looking for... I have the 2003 G35 coupe, and got a procharger installed in February. Of course, I took it too fast over a huge pothole and wrecked both rims on the passenger side. I am in the market for new rims and tires, but the vendors I have looked at don't know what size rims would need to be in order to fit with the Brembo brakes. I have 18" wheels, but I am not sure what I need to specify in order to insure they will fit. I am kind of a novice with this stuff, but am trying to learn. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Or you can get me direct at [email protected]. Thanks in advance.-Rob
