Need help from Wheel Experts?
 
I am thinking of getting a G35 coupe in several months. I currently have Manaray Vr-5 rims on my car. They are 18 x 8.5. The offset is 35. Would they fit the G35? Also, I have 245.40.18 tires all around, would that fit the G35?

If it is a standard G35 without the Brembo brake package the bolt pattern and offset sound about right. You will want to contact the place where you purchased the wheel and see if you can get the correct hardware for the G35.

There is special hardware that is needed for GS rims to fit on a G35? Arent they the same bolt pattern?

If you get the 6 speed G35 coupe with Brembo brakes, you'll probably need wheel spacers only if your front wheels don't have enough clearence for the Brembo calibers.

You'll also need to see if you need to get new lugnuts. I think that's what Brandon ment by Hardware. Check to see what thread pitch the G35 is...Lexus (I think all of 'em) are 12x1.5...

You might also want to check the Infiniti/Nissan forums (like Fresh Alloy) to see what width/offset/tire sizes they're running.

Plus the brake issue as others have mentioned...
