Are there any rims that exist that are +40mm offset that will fit a g35 coupe? or can sedans only fit rims with +40mm offset? and if you CAN fit 40mm offset onto g35 coupe how would u do it? any info would be helpful! thanks!

Bottom line, does +40mm offset fit g35 coupes?

Go Here:http://www.yokohamatire.com/utcustom.asp

and it has a useful explanation of offset and pictures to maybe make it clearer.

My only beef is that, I had a 17x7inch 6 spoke infiniti wheel from my friend, which im guessing is off of a 03-04 g35 sedan because the g35 coupes dont havem. i looked up the specs on it and it is +40mm. g35 coupe (which i own) is +30mm in front, +33mm in rear. I tried to install it and it did not sit flush on the hub. well i tightened the crap outta it, went and ran it and the nuts came loose! bad!!!!

so then i took it off, put my stock rim on it.

just no one wants to take a stab at my question, because no one wants to go smaller in the front, everyone wants wider. and plus i dont think anyone has ever done it before. just wondering.

i noticed the bolts don't go through the holes fully as they do on my stock rim. that's probably why the nuts came loose after driving.

If you run a 15-20mm spacer they will fit perfectly. You would also have to run longer wheel studs with that big of a spacer too.

Or better yet, just buy a 4th rim to match your others You may even be able to find one on this site. You'd be surprised what people have layin around in their garages
