hey all,

my v36 sedan is currently at the compliance workshop so it won't be long now - yay!

in the mean time, i am trying to organise some new rims. it's a my2007 type sp so the stock rims are 18x7.5 (FR) and 18x8.5 (RR). my questions are:

- any ideas what i could go comfortably up to?

- will 20s be too large? are tyres easility available?

- how wide can i go?

- will i need different widths to match? eg 8.5 fronts and 9.5 rears

any help would be appreciated. actual experience would be even better.

thanks for reading.

20's are fine. Yes they are easily available.

i went for a 20X9.5 +15 front 20X10.5 +18 rear on my coupe, which is *very* aggressive offset.

widths, sizing, and offset is all dependant on how you want the car to sit.

IMO the "stance" (offset & widths) is just as important as actual wheel design choice.

check out http://www.rimtuck.com and searching for a infiniti g37 sedan for some sizing / pics.

thanks for the link. thats a great looking website. i couldn't find anything under g37 sedan, but i did find a couple of 19s under g35 sedan.

your set up must look awesome. i can't believe how wide you've gone - 2inches over (my) stock!! i'd love to see some pics if you have them. also, do you have a (4 door) sedan or the coupe?

sedan or coupe? coupes come in stock 19s, sedans come in stock 18s. mine is a sedan.

who is doing your compliance? if they are stock rims, i don't see how it would have any compliance issues. might be harder to get the right tyre placard.

got pics of your rims/car?

Hi all I have 22s on mine 2008 v36 SP. I am looking for anyone who has the Stock 19s as I sold mine to the shop when I got the 22s. I am interested in a swap for the 22s aswell, Just really want to 19s back.

If anyone is interested pls PM me and we can come to some sort of deal

Cheers

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
