G35 19" Wheels on SC?
is there anyone out there who has tried this combination?
I've spotted a set of brand new G35 coupe wheels that came right off the car after delivery for upgrades and I am not sure if they will fit on my sc300 properly..
what tire sizes should I put on to avoid any speed variation or fender rolling?
FRONT = 19X8J, ET30
REAR = 19X8.5J, ET33
any advise or recommendation is greatly appreciated!!!
thanks!

You will have speed variation, how much is a "significant" factor is up to you.
You can get extremely close.
There is a handy formula that I used about a year ago when upgrading to 19" wheels...highly recommended....it can be found on the FAQ on intellextual.net

Thanks for all the help here.
So that I tried the Eunos page formula since the Intellexual one seems to have been removed, the closest combo attained was 215/60/15 (original spec) to 225/35/19 = 0.2% deviation
That should be pretty close already right?
One confusion though, Intellexual suggested for 19X8J, go with 235~245 & 19X8.5J, go with 245~255...neither combination would get to a narrow deviation, anyone know why?
if 0,2% is good enough, then all 4 tires should be in the same size? should I use spacers to avoid sunken looks?
I am really not a technical nor got the brain to figure this out on my own, your sharing is truly a savior to me. thanks!!!!

the first photo was before.. here's after
Front = 225/35/19
Rear = 255/30/19
no fender rolling needed.
just need to lower down and get "lexus" caps that will fit in the center..

Those new g35 rims look nice. I'd rock them.
On the caps, I believe the rims are made by macken industries which also make volks. Volk caps might fit or just get plain caps with no logo. I am not 100 percent on this but just wanted to give my 2 cents
