I tried searching, didn't work.

I got 05 G35 18's sitting in my room. the 7 spoke one.

front: 18x8j 30+
rear: 18x9.5 30+

I have Stance GR+'s

question is, has anyone put them on their cars before?
I am trying to figure out how much of spacer MM's I'll need to just fit them. not any perfect flush or anything.

and I am sure it'll have rubbing problems on the coilovers if I just put them on.

I am not in a rush to figure this out.

Thanks!

offset calculator.
i think this might help.

Thanks for the link, but I was trying to use it..then I couldn't find the offset for my stock 4 lug steel's.

I've got my 5lug hubs coming in on wendsday, and already have S14 SE wheels and those G35's aside, so no problem running 5 lugs.

and [email protected]`S13 (http://www.zilvia.net/f/member.php?u=63943), do you have any pics or link of that "been done" comment? not to doubt you, but I just want more info on this.

They should fit just the way that they are. I have 17x8 +35 on the front of my s-13 with coils and they clear without spacers and I am running 235's.

wait..I'll just use the S14 SE 5 lug wheels for this calculation..and it says..

6.5j 35+ against 8j 30+
The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 14mm LESS
The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 24mm


6.5j 35+ against 9j 30+
The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 27mm LESS
The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 37mm

i guess I'll just have to measure it out.

ill try and find a pic right now. iv seen it a lot. iv seen it a lot too.

front tires are 225/25/18
rear tires are 245/45/18

yes my speedo reading will be off by about 7%, it'll read 60 when I am going 65, so bit of difference there.

the next set, i'll be running

225/45 or 40/18 front
225 or 235/40/18 rear so i can get the correct reading.

I asked this because i looked how much of clearence there was with my steel 15's with my stance's on ground, and there wasn't much, and I don't want to rub on coilovers! i'd rather rub on fenders. :keke:

well, if you already have the wheels, you'll find out once you try them on

front overfenders,


you can get the stock metals to be waaay wider with tweaking, metal is way more pliable.

thats pretty much a roll front and rear stock body.


ez. put them on done /thread.

just read the thread, he's using spacers for his 30mm over fenders..

anyhow, 50% chance I'll need spacers just to fit them. and from that thread, seems like I don't need to be running any just to fit them on my S14.

Thanks for all the help guys!

yeah,

you will be hitting collar,

pick up some 30mm bolt on's

it will make you super flush,

just rollpull your fenders it will look clean.

thanks!

Actually you're asking the wrong question.

This has already been covered. I mean I can see if you're asking because you were getting a deal or something on the rims. But you have them in your posession and you would rather take the time typing up a post and then waiting for a reply instead of taking all five minutes to jack your car up and remove whatever rim you have on your car to test fit the ones in question.

ugh.

Word of the day is, "Common Sense". Some have it, some don't.

the only problem with that is that he has 4 lug right now. he said he's waiting on his 5 lug hubs to come.

So yes, he could've waited for the hubs to come, installed them, and then seen how the g35 wheels fit, but if they didn't fit then he'd have to order spacers and wait even longer. This way he was able to find out now if he should go ahead and order spacers now or if he would be ok without them. It makes sense to me.. He's excited about putting new wheels on.

Maybe read the whole thread next time before trying to impose your awesome superiority over others.

I'm not going to waste my time to read bullshit posts about wheels fitting if he couldn't even state that in his first post. Maybe I would be willing to use my time to help him if he was willing to use his own time to search.

Hmm. Or you know what also would've made this thead to come to a close.

If the op used his/her brain and thought out wheel fitment. You know, simple math and a ruler?

But what. I forgot. Everyone needs to be spoon fed eh?

I am sorry, you helped me with something? I did say I searched, but just not with right words.

and sorry if I am new to this whole trying to be flushed/wheel fitment thing, I am doing my best to catch up with the rest of the nissan people.

So..this is why people say they hate Zilvia eh? I am not a complete idiot.

but for those whom helped me out with this issue. thanks!

oh, while we are still on this wheel subject, another question for those with these 18's and 19's with stock tires on them still.

yes I can do the speed calculation and go with it on my speedo reading, but how do you guys deal with the wrong speedo reading? since the 18" OEM G35 wheel diameter with tires are about 7% over the stock S14 wheels/tires. yes, can be fixed with correct sized tires[225 or 235/40/18's i think], but since the rear one's already have over 50% thread life left, I don't see the point of switch tires when the one's I have are good enough.

thanks.

Ok..I lied about them wheel sizes..

they are 18x8 all around, for some reason I decided that they are 9.5 because of the 245/45/18's on the rear tires..haha

anyways, I got them on last weekend, and here is a pic
